Hi Carl Sorry to have been unresponsive on this but have been trapped in a meeting the past 2 days. I will be back at home tomorrow evening and try to give some better instruction.

What we did do before was was generate the DSD from our side. Regarding association of dsd with schema (in fact schema should be generated from the dsd) let me explain more tomorrow. Its late here now :-) What you would probably want to do if you are going this way around and you already have the codelists, is use those to create dataelements in dxf and import them.

So any sensible code of your choosing will do and dhis will accept it (as long as it doesn't collide). > I have omitted the <uid/>s in the snippet below. Is this OK? > Yes.
