Ah I was being dense, I thought you were talking about the units field, not the property field. In that case, what would it mean if property were set to 'Arbitrary' - does that mean the units has to be from the current list of arbitrary units, which is not-length, not-pressure, not-everything else? If that's the intended effect then ... maybe we add a new term. But the existing property terms are well defined, and in some sense exhaustive (at the physics level). It is clear what 'mass' means for example; what does 'arbitrary' mean? Probably it would need to be at least 'arbitrary property'?

anyway, I think this is now a terminology discussion... :)

Hi all, thanks for your replies!

I’m sure the CKM would accept the unit string, but which property would the Quantity have? Eg property = <[openehr::124]> for weight or property = <[openehr::127]> for temperature? I don’t think we have one of those codes for “Arbitrary”?

I’m sure you’re correct about the syntax, btw. J
