CodingMap

Purpose

Specifies the mappings for one verbatim item to be coded.

Syntax

<CODINGMAP    
  REFNAME="name"    
  [VERBATIMTYPE="type"]>    
  <DICTIONARY attributes/>    
  <CODETARGET+ attributes/>    
  <CONTEXTINFORMATION*/>
</CODINGMAP>

Attributes

REFNAME="name"

RefName of the coding mapping component containing the verbatim item to be coded. Required.

VERBATIMTYPE="type"

Type of verbatim to be coded. Optional. This value corresponds to the item type in the Oracle Central Coding application:

AE—Adverse event
DISEASE—Disease
LABDATA—Lab data
MEDPROD—Medical product

AE, DISEASE, and LABDATA are valid verbatim types for the MedDRA dictionary. MEDPROD is a valid verbatim type for the WHO-DD dictionary.

Children

A CodingMap element has the following child elements:

One Dictionary element specifying the coding dictionary to use.
At least one CodeTarget element specifying the mapping between theOracle InForm control holding the data after it is coded and the dictionary code target used to code the data.
Optionally, a ContextInformation element containing one or more ContextItem elements. A ContextItem element specifies the mapping between an Oracle InForm control providing additional context information and the dictionary context item used to code the data.
