default-aid-type

Definition

The type of aid being supplied (project-type intervention, budget support, debt relief, etc.). This element specifies a default for all the activity’s financial transactions; it can be overridden at the individual transaction level.

Rules

This element may occur any number of times.

107.1.1: The activity should also declare an aid type code from aid type vocabulary 1 - OECD DAC.

107.1.2: Each activity should only contain one default aid type code per aid type vocabulary (e.g. 1 - OECD DAC)

Each selected vocabulary should only be used once for each activity (iati-activity/default-aid-type) or transaction (iati-activity/transaction/aid-type). All activities and/or transactions should contain a code from the DAC Type of Aid Vocabulary. The above guidelines should be converted to rules at the next integer upgrade.

Example Usage

Example default-aid-type for an iati-activity.

The @code attribute declares a valid code from the specified codelist.

The @vocabulary attribute declares a valid code (1) from the AidTypeVocabulary codelist.

<default-aid-type code="A01" vocabulary="1" />

The default-aid-type element can be repeated in any iati-activity.

  <default-aid-type code="A01" vocabulary="1" />
  <default-aid-type code="1" vocabulary="2" />

The vocabulary is used to declare which AidType list is in use. If omitted, an AidType Vocabulary of 1 (OECD DAC) is assumed.

Note: The aid-type element can override the default-aid-type value set in iati-activity
