DD0029 Required attribute def:ExtendedValue is missing or empty from Define xml validation

Hi ChuanFeng,

Please ensure that you use correct version of CDISC SDTM CT for validation.

For example, “ABDUCTOR DIGITI MINIMI MUSCLE OF THE HAND” term was introduced in SDTM-CT 2019-12-20. If during validation you utilize early versions of CDISC SDTM CT, then this term will be considered as an extension of standard SDTM CT.

Kind Regards,
Sergiy

Hi,

I have used Pinnacle 21 Community to create Define Spec file and filled in dataset and variables information, then used it to create Define xml file. I am seeing DD0029, “Required attribute def:ExtendedValue is missing or empty”, message from the Define xml validation.

I have created codelist based on SDTM Terminology 2020-11-06, and I am seeing DD0029 messages related to some, but not all, of the LOC (Anatomical Location) codelist items. I understand that LOC is a extensible codelist, but the message is about the items that are already included in the codelist. For example, “ABDUCENS NERVE” is okay with the validation, but the 3 examples highlighted in bold are not.

. . .

Abducens Nerve **** **** **Abductor Digiti Minimi Muscle of the Hand** **** **** **** **** **** **Abductor Digiti Minimi Muscle** **** **** ****

The following are the columns included in the Codelists tab, so I don’t see an option for me to specify attribute for ExtendedValue.

ID Name NCI Codelist Code Data Type Order Term NCI Term Code Decoded Value

Any Suggestions?

Thanks
