  1. A service segment starting and uniquely identifying a message. The message type code for the Data maintenance request definition message is DMRDEF. Note: Data maintenance request definition messages conforming to this document must contain the following data in segment UNH, composite S009: Data element 0065 DMRDEF 0052 D 0054 21A 0051 UN

    1. Data element S009/0057 is retained for upward compatibility. The use of
    S016 and/or S017 is encouraged in preference.
    2. The combination of the values carried in data elements 0062 and S009 shall
    be used to identify uniquely the message within its group (if used) or if
    not used, within its interchange, for the purpose of acknowledgement.

  2. A segment to indicate the beginning of the message and to transmit function, type and number of the message.

  3. A segment specifying the identity of the reference directory set used in creating the DMR.

  4. A segment specifying date information, e.g., the date the submitter forwarded the DMR, preparation date, technical assessment review date, final approval date, etc. Date information is to be provided in CCYYMMDD format.

  5. A segment specifying text information outlining the business requirement for this DMR. This segment may also be used by the originating technical assessment group to convey any explanations or comments which should accompany the DMR through the international assessment process. Other assessment groups will comment on a DMR via the DMSTAT message.

  6. A segment identifying the type of and reference log number of this request, as well as any related DMRs. In order to ensure proper identification of related DMRs, this segment shall identify, if existing, any parent and child DMRs one level above or below the current level. This segment shall not identify grand-parents and grand-children at any level. (Although a related DMR may have multiple parent DMRs and/or multiple child DMRs, the parent and child DMRs for these related DMRs will not be identified in the current DMR.) A related DMR(s) at the highest level, will have no parent DMR(s). A related DMR(s) at the lowest level will have no child DMR(s). The actual DMR reference log number type may be: Original submitter, Entry point assessment log number, Central secretariat log number, or International assessment log number. The related reference log number type may be: Original submitter, parent DMR Original submitter, child DMR Entry point assessment log number, parent DMR Entry point assessment log number, child DMR Central secretariat log number, parent DMR Central secretariat log number, child DMR International assessment log number, parent DMR International assessment log number, child DMR Also, the submitter must identify a message design group with which the DMR should be associated. This message design group will be consulted by technical assessment for functional evaluations.

  7. A segment identifying associated documentation, including document reference and document type.

  8. Segment group 1
    Repeat 99

    1. A segment identifying the originator of the Data maintenance request, e.g., the DMR submitter, Secretariat, etc. At least one occurrence is required to identify the submitter's organization name. When forwarding a DMR to the central secretariat the sender must identify which entry point is forwarding the DMR.

    2. A segment identifying the DMR originator's address information.

    3. Segment group 2
      Repeat 9

      1. A segment identifying a person or a department for the party specified in the leading PNA segment to whom the communication should be directed.

  9. Segment group 3
    Repeat 1

    1. A segment identifying a message type to be specified.

    2. A segment used to specify if the message is for use with the batch or interactive message directories. It also may indicate what modifications the DMR will make to the message.

    3. A segment providing textual information related to the message type, namely: Message type name, Introduction, Scope, Functional definition, Field of application, Principles, References, Terms and definitions, Standard terms and definitions, and Message terms and conditions.

    4. Segment group 4
      Repeat 999

      1. A segment specifying the usage of a segment in a message type structure. The segment names for component segments are to be defined in the segment identification segment group. The segment names are provided once for each segment tag in the message and are the basis for all occurrences of the segment name in the message boilerplate.

      2. A segment to indicate what modifications the DMR will make to the clarification text for the segment.

      3. A segment providing textual information about segment usage. This information comprises part of the data segment clarification section.
