Appendix B: DSDB Attribute List

This appendix contains the list of attributes that are included in the SDTS Data Dictionary for DLG-E which are defined by the DLG-E Standards Database (DSDB). (Not all attributes in the DSDB are to be included in the Master Data Dictionary. There are attributes that are not currently used by any entity. There are attributes that map to standard subfields and others that are not to be encoded.) The list is derived from the attribute table designs in this document.

The first column is the attribute code, the second column is the DLG-E entity that uses the attribute, and the third through fifth column is schema information needed by SDTS when describing a user-defined attribute table.

* BAU or HYM in Units means that it is an attribute that provides the units for another attribute.
