Unique class identifier @classId r string Unique identifier for the class. [Notes: If such identifiers are also defined in the referenced category file, they should be identical. Identifiers can be UUID's, but also other forms are allowed.] 1-1-2-7-2-1-b

Quantitative reference quantitativeReference r [0,1] This section allows to refer to the Flow property's quantitative reference, which is always a unit (i.e. that unit, in which the property is measured, e.g. "MJ" for energy-related Flow properties). 4-25-106
Reference unit referenceToReferenceUnitGroup r [1,1] GlobalReferenceType "Unit group data set" and its reference unit, in which the Flow property is measured. 4-25-106-279

Compliance declarations complianceDeclarations r [0,1] Statements on compliance of several data set aspects with compliance requirements as defined by the referenced compliance system (e.g. an EPD scheme, handbook of a national or international data network such as the ILCD, etc.). 1-3-22

Fully compliantMeets all requirements of this compliance aspect as defined in the respective "Compliance system".
Not compliantDoes not meet all requirements of this compliance aspect, as defined for the respective "Compliance system".
Not definedFor this compliance aspect the named "Compliance system" has not defined compliance requirements.
Official approval whether or not and in how far the data set meets all the requirements of the "Compliance system" refered to. This approval should be issued/confirmed by the owner of that compliance system, who is identified via the respective "Contact data set". 1-3-22-95

Data set format(s) referenceToDataSetFormat r [0,n] GlobalReferenceType "Source data set" of the used version of the ILCD format. If additional data format fields have been integrated into the data set file, using the "namespace" option, the used format namespace(s) are to be given. This is the case if the data sets carries additional information as specified by other, particular LCA formats, e.g. of other database networks or LCA softwares. 1-5-28-105

Data set version dataSetVersion m [1,1] Version Version number of data set. First two digits refer to major updates, the second two digits to minor revisions and error corrections etc. The third three digits are intended for automatic and internal counting of versions during data set development. Together with the data set's UUID, the "Data set version" uniquely identifies each data set. 1-5-30-111
Preceding data set version referenceToPrecedingDataSetVersion o [0,n] GlobalReferenceType Last preceding data set, which was replaced by this version. Either a URI of that data set (i.e. an internet address) or its UUID plus version number is given (or both). 1-5-30-112
Permanent data set URI permanentDataSetURI r [0,1] anyURI URI (i.e. an internet address) of the original of this data set. [Note: This equally globally unique identifier supports users and software tools to identify and retrieve the original version of a data set via the internet or to check for available updates. The URI must not represent an existing WWW address, but it should be unique and point to the data access point, e.g. by combining the data owner's www path with the data set's UUID, e.g. http://www.mycompany.com/lca/processes/50f12420-8855-12db-b606-0900210c9a66.] 1-5-30-300
