Overview
A Valuelist is a managed list of values, similar to an SDMX Codelist but unlike a Code the Value Id does not need to conform to the SDMX ID Type.
Note: Value List became an official part of the SDMX standard in version 3.0
Structure Properties
| Structure Type | Standard SDMX Structural Metadata Artefact |
|---|---|
| Maintainable | Yes |
| Identifiable | Yes |
| Item Scheme | No |
| SDMX Information Model Versions | 3.0 |

Example
The following table is used to demonstrate the types of values that a Valuelist could hold
| Id | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| $ | Dollar | - |
| £ | Pound | - |
| % | Percent | A number or ratio that represents a fraction of 100. |

Context within the 2.1 Information Model
The schematic illustrates the how the Valuelist is used by Data Structure Definitions (DSD).
Note A Valuelist is not an official part of the SDMX Information model at version 2.1, which is currently the latest model.
Usage
Valuelists provide an enumerated list of allowable values, for which there is also a mandatory Name and optional description. This list can be referenced for defining the set of allowed values for enumerated Components Data Structure Definitions (DSDs) or Metadata Structure Definitions which describe Reference Metadata.
Conventions
'VL_' Valuelist ID Prefix
Valielist IDs are given a 'VL_' prefix to distinguish them from other structures. For instance: VL_CURRENCY.
