Principles
When creating a new reference set it is important that the reference set metadata concept (which identifies and names the reference set) and the associated reference set members belongs to a module of the reference set producer. I.e. if a reference set is created as part of an extension, the reference set metadata concept should belong to a module within the namespace of the extension producer.
...
Please note that for all reference sets, there should be guidance on what is possible and what is not possible. For some International reference sets, it is acceptable and even required to add extension rows to the International reference set. For example, the Module Dependency Refset, the MRCM Module Scope Refset, and Language Refset. This is not necessarily applicable to all reference sets. Over time, further guidance in this area will be developed.

Create the Descriptor for the reference set If the reference set does not follow an existing reference set pattern, the additional attributes specific for this customized reference set should be included in the Descriptor reference set. | |||||||||||||||||||
Reference Set Descriptor Reference Set | A new reference set member is created in the reference set Descriptor for each attribute in the reference set pattern. For guidance on creating a reference set member, please see 56.43.53.1 Add Members to a Reference Set. For further introduction to the reference set Descriptor, please see 4.1.1. Reference Set Descriptor in Practical Guide to Reference Sets. | ||||||||||||||||||
Add members to the reference set Reference set members are added to the reference set, which includes specifying the attribute values for each reference set member, see 56.43.53.1 Add Members to a Reference Set. |
