Introduction > Basic structure of the IDM scheme
The basic structure of the IDML scheme
The main element T_MODIFY_CONTENT_CATALOG defines that a new, complete catalogue dataset is provided.
The MODIFY_CONTENT_IDMP completely replaces the content of the basic catalogue in the respective referenced node. If, for example, DETAIL_INFOS from the basic catalogue are to be retained at a node, they must also be contained in the MODIFY_CONTENT_IDML. The subordinate structures in the hierarchy remain unaffected by the change.
The overriding information from the MODIFY_CONTENT_IDML is not intended for order processing. The origin IDs and designations from the basic catalogue must be specified there.
The IDM schema is divided into data areas, which are mapped by the following child elements (see Figure 1) of T_MODIFY_CONTENT_CATALOG.
Figure 1 - child elements in T_MODIFY_CONTENT_CATALOG
The data ranges are not used in isolation from each other. In some data ranges, data is initially created and used from other data ranges via referencing.
Additionally, many data ranges contain references to the associated base catalogue.
Description of the data ranges
CATALOG
CATALOG is used to store administrative information concerning the data pool. E.g. the version of the data format, release date or the unique identification of the data pool.
REF_CATALOG
Information on the base catalogue is specified in REF_CATALOG.
GLOBAL_DEFINITION
The GLOBAL_DEFINITION data range is a kind of data pool for information used in the other data ranges. In this case, the detail information for this data pool is stored.
SERIES
The modified trade-specific texts, detail information and classifications for the items of the base catalogue are specified in SERIES. Items are combined into product groups, such as armchairs or intermediate elements.
FEATURE_DEFINITION
Trade-specific texts and detail information for feature information are stored in FEATURE_DEFINITION.

Introduction > Data types
Data types and value ranges
The IDM schema uses the data types defined in the standard XML schema 1.0 second edition (28 October 2004).
It uses the following data types:
|
boolean |
This data type maps the logical values "true" or "false". In accordance with the W3C recommendation for XML schemas, the values that can be used in the IDM are true/false or 1/0. |
|
date |
In the IDMP, the data type date is used in conformity with the XML schemas as follows: |
|
YYYY-MM-DD |
|
|
Y = year, M = month, D = day |
|
|
integer |
Numbers can be positive and negative integers. |
|
nonNegativeInteger |
Value is a positive integer, including 0 |
|
positiveInteger |
Value is a positive integer, excluding 0 |
|
decimal |
The data type is used in the IDMP for floating-point values. Floating-point values for this data type are, as recommended by the W3C, stored as 126.56 or -45.98000 or +27.0. |
|
string |
A limited number of alphanumeric characters and special characters. |
|
anyURI |
The data type is used in the IDMP for URLs.anyURI represents a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI). The lexical part of anyURI is an indefinite sequence of characters that correspond to a legal URI. An anyURI value can be absolute or relative and may contain fragment codes (e.g. an URI reference). |
|
language |
The data type is used in the IDMP for the mapping of valid language keys.language represents codes for natural languages Tags for the Identification of Languagesas defined in the Thevaluerangeof language is the quantum of all character sequences that represent a valid code of a natural language. For ISO languages, the format consists of a sequence of 2-3 lower case letters optionally followed by a hyphen and a country code consisting of 2 upper case letters, e.g. en-US. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Additionally, there is also a user-defined data type: |
|
|
|
|
|
operator |
Thy data type is used for rules in the IDML. This simple, self-defined data type defines an operator for comparisons. The comparison operator is a string of 1 to 4 characters length and may contain the following values: eq (equal) ne (not equal) in (is contained in a quantity) nin (is not contained in a quantity) gt (greater) lt (less) ge (greater than or equal) le (less than or equal) |
The value ranges of the above data types are usually restricted for the elements in the IDMP. The "restrictions" in the data type definition contains restrictions for minimum and maximum values, permitted characters (pattern) and value lists.
In the documentation of the XML schema of the IDM, the value ranges are specified by the information coming after M and P.

Explanation of the element properties
Each element is documented on the basis of a description and its properties. The following shows an example for an element description:
Description:
The element properties are documented on the right side. They have the following meaning:
|
D |
The data type of the element is documented here. If this position is left blank, the element does not contain any reference data but additional child-elements. |
||
|
P |
The entries made in P and M document the value range of an element. A regular expression that defines the permitted values must be entered in P. |
||
|
M |
The minimum and maximum permitted values must be entered in M. In the case of a string data type, P defines the permitted characters and M the minimum and maximum character length. In the case of a numeric data type, the permitted minimum and maximum value is defined. |
