infoName

The element <infoName> contains the information name describing the type of information related to the Product about which the data module has been written. It is recommended that the element is populated with the information code short definition (corresponding to the attribute infoCode in the element <dmCode>.Projects can decide to modify (or extend) the information name to one that is more suitable, provided the sense of the information code is maintained. If there is a variation indicated by the information code variant (the attribute infoCodeVariant in the element <dmCode>, the information name can be extended to describe this variation.ExampleThe short definition of IC 258 is “Other procedure to clean”. A project can have a data module that tells the reader how to clean with water. Another data module could tell the reader how to clean with air. In both cases, the information name can be extended from “Other procedure to clean” (normally IC 258A) to “Other procedure to clean, Clean with air” (can be IC 258B) and “Other procedure to clean, Clean with water” (can be IC 258C).
