Attributes

The Finnish data profile contains attributes that are defined for use in Finland and Synkka. In the background is a larger set of attributes (attributes contained in the GDSN standard) from which these have been selected for use.

The attributes used in the user interface are displayed as data fields, in which data is entered either freely or selected from a code list. In addition to these, Synkka has attributes that do not appear in the UI as data fields because they get a standard value. Nevertheless, those attributes must be taken into account in the integration.

Code values

There are three types of code lists:

  1. GDSN code list; either a full list or a limited number of values ​​(= limited code list) is used. The code list values ​​are maintained in GDSN, not by GS1 Finland.

  2. Finland code list; The code list values ​​are maintained by GS1 Finland,.An example of this is the code lists for dangerous substances.
  3. User interface code list; there are code lists used in the user interface that improve usability and correct use of information. Please note that other data pools can use different code list values. 

Validation rules

Type of validation rule:
UI rule The rule only applies to the Synkka user interface. Rule is there to guide users in correct data entry.
Target Market dependent rule Rule is dependent on target market and is implemented in Finland. Every target market can have their own rules.
Global rule The validation rule is global, applies to all target markets.
