IATI replicates a number of codelist from the OECD DAC. Following the latest update from the OECD DAC on 28 February 2020, we have now aligned the below codelist:
Huge thanks to Alex Miller for his work on this and support from Andy Lulham ! Reference to Github Changes.
Great - can I ask what the guidance is on using withdrawn codes? Will these pass the validator, with just a warning, or if publishers have activities which use withdrawn codes will these activities be invalid IATI and so not appear in the datastore?
matmaxgeds thanks for checking. Yes, files including withdrawn codes will pass validation and will also appear in the datastore.
We have not yet included a warning message for withdrawn codes, but will look into this.
NB DAC codelists were updated again yesterday (5th May 2020).
Thank you for the update Andy Lulham ! Yes, we will be looking at the latest updates in the upcoming weeks and will notify the community when they have been updated on our website.
