Rule DD0112 'Missing MedDRA definition' with no reason or resolution

In the Define-XML v2.1 specification it is now explicitly stated for the ExternalCodeList Dictionary attribute:

CDISC Submission Value (=CodedValue) as listed in the NCI/CDISC Controlled Terminology, CodeList Dictionary Name, NCI Code C66788. This CodeList is extensible. Samples: COSTART, ICD, LOINC, MedDRA, SNOMED, WHOART, WHODD.

Lex was faster than me …

Yes, and thanks Lex for showing this rule!

Dear all,

When generating define.xml and using P21 Community validator, we found a quite interesting issue, DD0112 ‘Missing MedDRA definition’:

There was information of MedDRA with a name and version in both variable’s CT and External Dictionaries parts, however this issue still came out without more information about why and how this issue occurred or resolved.

Then we found the resolution was to change the CT Name from ‘MedDRA DICTIONARY’ to ‘MedDRA’… very interesting, right?

So we would like to share this experience for any one else meeting this.
