<xs:annotation>
<xs:documentation>
The attribute "action" is used for inheritance situations where there is an override at the local level (within a grouped StudyUnit) which is not available for further inheritance. There are three possible values for "action": Add - A new identifiable object (an Identifiable, Versionable, or Maintainable element) is provided locally with a new identifier (one that is not inherited). All properties (elements and attributes contained in the object) of the object are as specified. If an object with an existing id is created, this is an error.; Update - An object is provided locally with the SAME id as the inherited object. For each type of property that is specified locally, a full set of those properties is specified for local use. These properties replace any properties of this type which were inherited. Unspecified properties are used as inherited.; Delete - An object is provided locally with the SAME id as the inherited object. All properties specified locally in this object will be deleted if their types and values match those inherited. Note that to completely delete an object at the local level, all properties of the inherited object must be listed.

Adds the attribute identifying this as an identifiable object as well as the MaintainableObject. All identifiable objects should provide their contextual information, the identity of their maintainable parent. The deprecated form of the URN contains all the information to identify and object and its context. A Canonical URN scoped to the Maintainable contains the ID of the Maintainable as part of its structure. To provide full contextual information use the MaintainableObject structure. The use of the Canonical URN scoped to the agency or the identification sequence alone requires the content of the MaintainableObject to provide full contextual information. All content of Identifiable is considered to be administrative metadata. Note that changes to the administrative metadata does not drive a change in the version of the parent objects. See DDI 3.2 Technical Documentation: Part I for further details.

<xs:documentation>
Used to identify described versionable objects for purposes of internal and/or external referencing. Elements of this type cannot be maintained except as part of a complex parent element. Provides containers for Uniform Resource Name (URN) as well as ID information. An entity can either be identified either by a URN and/or an identification sequence. At a minimum, one or the other is required. You must designate they type of URN supported by your agency, either "Canonical" or "Deprecated". To fully support interoperability both the DDI URN and the full identification sequence should be used. Note that to support interoperability of the canonical and deprecated URN, at minimum the MaintainableIdentifier and TypeOfMaintainableObject should be supplied if the canonical URN is being used by the agency. If both URN and the identification sequence is used, and there is any conflict, the URN takes precedence. The element can be designated as an addition, replacement, or deletion to facilitate tracking changes. In addtion to the elements and attributes inherited from AbstractIdentifiable, additional information regarding the versioning process can be provided; version date, the person and/or organization within the maintenance agency responsible for the change as either text or reference, and the reason for the change. If the object created was based on an exisiting object (other than by versioning), the object on which it is based can be identified using BasedOnReference. In addition to UserID, versionable and maintainable objects may also designate additional user specific properties expressed as a key/value pair using UserAttributePair.
