Dave, This is the same issue we were receiving that triggered our efforts to compare/review the latest CT files. Note that if you use any past versions of CT prior to the 12/20/2013, you shouldn’t get these errors. At least that’s what we found in our review. Not sure if this is helpful, but it appears that there is something going on that I at least know is not isolated.
Thanks!
I go the same error message for that particular code. I am using the March 2014 version of the CDISC CT.
I will reference an older version of the CT to see if it goes away.
Cheers
Joyce
We are looking into this.
It’s possible that the false positive is because CLINICAL STUDY SPONSOR exists 3 times, but not sure. looking into it
| Codelist Code | Codelist Name | Code | CDISC Submission Value |
|---|---|---|---|
| C78735 | Evaluator | C70793 | CLINICAL STUDY SPONSOR |
| C66738 | Trial Summary Parameter Test Code | C70793 | SPONSOR |
| C67152 | Trial Summary Parameter Test Name | C70793 | Clinical Study Sponsor |
There is a bug in CT0081 rule definition.
As a temporary solution until the next release of the validator you can edit specs manually.
Open “config-sdtm-…xml” file from “config” folder by XML or any plain text editor. Add WhereFailre=“Ignore” attribute to the CT0081 and CT0081R rule defnition. E.g.,
<val:Lookup ID=“CT0081” Message=“TSPARM and TSPARMCD values do not have the same Code in CDISC CT” Description=“In Trial Summary Dataset (TS) domain values for Trial Summary Parameter Short Name (TSPARMCD) and Trial Summary Parameter (TSPARM) variables must be populated using terms with the same Codelist Code value in CDISC control terminology. There is one-to-one relationship between TSPARMCD and TSPARM values defined in CDISC control terminology by Codelist Code value.” Category=“Terminology” Type=“Error” Variable=“VAL:DECODE == TSPARMCD” When=“TSPARM != ‘’ @and TSPARMCD != ‘’” Where=“CodelistCode == ‘C67152’ @and CDISCSubmissionValue == [TSPARM]” WhereFailure=“Ignore” From=“FILE:CDISC:%System.ConfigDirectory%/data/CDISC/SDTM/%System.CDISC.Version%/SDTM Terminology.txt” ActiveUnless=“%Variables[TSPARM].Define.WithCodeList%” />
Sorry for inconvenience.
Kind Regards,

In my TS domain, OpenCDISC 1.5 with SDTM IG 3.1.3 and the CDISC CT version 2014-03-28, I’m getting CT0081 and CT0081R errors on the TSPARMCD=“SPONSOR” and TSPARM=“Clinical Study Sponsor” record.
The message is that the two values do not have the same code in the CDISC CT, but in fact both of them have the code C70793.
Any idea what might be going wrong with this test?
