VariableGroup
Known Usage Locations
Annotation
Contains a group of Variables, which may be ordered or hierarchical. In addition to the name, label, and description of the group, the structure allows for defining the type of group using an optional controlled vocabulary, a reference to a defining universe or concept for the group, a subject classification for the group, and a listing of Variables and VariableGroups in any order.

Attribute Detail (all declarations; defined within this component only; 1/7)
isOrdered
Type:
xs:boolean, predefined
Use:
optional
If set to "true" indicates that the content of the group is ordered as it appears within the XML structure.
Attribute Value
Default:
"false"

<xs:attribute default="false" name="isOrdered" type="xs:boolean"/>
Content Element Detail (all declarations; defined within this component only; 10/21)
r:ConceptReference
Type:
r:ReferenceType, complex content
Reference to the concept expressed by the Variables in this group.
XML Source (w/o annotations (1); see within schema source)
<xs:element minOccurs="0" ref="r:ConceptReference"/>

r:Description
Type:
r:StructuredStringType, complex content
A description of the content and purpose of the VariableGroup. May be expressed in multiple languages and supports the use of structured content.
XML Source (w/o annotations (1); see within schema source)
<xs:element minOccurs="0" ref="r:Description"/>

r:Keyword
Type:
If keywords are listed for this group, it is strongly recommended that the keywords listed also be found in the TopicalCoverage element for the parent packaging element when this group is included directly or by reference in a module containing a coverage element. Use of keyword at the group level allows for associating objects as a type of keyword based group or to identify keyword characteristics of a reusable group of objects.
XML Source (w/o annotations (1); see within schema source)
<xs:element maxOccurs="unbounded" minOccurs="0" ref="r:Keyword"/>

r:Label
Type:
r:LabelType, complex content
A display label for the variable group. May be expressed in multiple languages. Repeat for labels with different content, for example, labels with differing length limitations.
XML Source (w/o annotations (1); see within schema source)
<xs:element maxOccurs="unbounded" minOccurs="0" ref="r:Label"/>

r:Subject
Type:
If subjects are listed for this group, it is strongly recommended that the subjects listed also be found in the TopicalCoverage element for the parent packaging element when this group is included directly or by reference in a module containing a coverage element. Use of subject at the group level allows for associating objects as a type of subject based group or to identify subject characteristics of a reusable group of objects.
XML Source (w/o annotations (1); see within schema source)
<xs:element maxOccurs="unbounded" minOccurs="0" ref="r:Subject"/>

r:UniverseReference
Type:
r:ReferenceType, complex content
Reference to the universe statement describing the persons or other objects to which the contents of this variable group pertain.
XML Source (w/o annotations (1); see within schema source)
<xs:element maxOccurs="unbounded" minOccurs="0" ref="r:UniverseReference"/>

r:VariableReference
Type:
r:ReferenceType, complex content
Reference to constituent Variable.
XML Source (w/o annotations (1); see within schema source)
<xs:element ref="r:VariableReference"/>

TypeOfVariableGroup
Type:
r:CodeValueType, simple content
A brief textual identification of the group type. Supports the use of an external controlled vocabulary.
Simple Content
xs:string
XML Source (w/o annotations (1); see within schema source)
<xs:element minOccurs="0" ref="TypeOfVariableGroup"/>

VariableGroupName
Type:
r:NameType, complex content
A name for the group. May be expressed in multiple languages. Repeat the element to express names with different content, for example different names for different systems.
XML Source (w/o annotations (1); see within schema source)
<xs:element maxOccurs="unbounded" minOccurs="0" ref="VariableGroupName"/>

VariableGroupReference
Type:
r:ReferenceType, complex content
Reference to constituent VariableGroup. This allows for nesting of VariableGroups.
XML Source (w/o annotations (1); see within schema source)
<xs:element ref="VariableGroupReference"/>
