Data Type Profile: Literal Reference ( Abstract )

An abstract profile to ensure the reference is always a literal reference. Used in conjunction with a rule set to ensure every reference is also bundled.

Usages:

• Use this DataType Profile: ContainerClosure, eCTD Product Description and Composition, eCTD Batch Formula, eCTD Product Characterisation of Impurities... Show 15 more, eCTD Substance General Information, eCTD Substance Control of Materials, eCTD Substance Characterisation, eCTD Specification, Literal Coded Reference, Batch Formula Drug Product Identification, Component Substance, Drug Substance Impurity, Drug Substance, Substance General Information, Excipient Drug Substance, Polymorphic Form, Drug Product Batch Formula, Quality Specification and Drug Substance Handle

ref-1	error	Reference	SHALL have a contained resource if a local reference is provided : reference.exists() implies (reference.startsWith('#').not() or (reference.substring(1).trace('url') in %rootResource.contained.id.trace('ids')) or (reference='#' and %rootResource!=%resource))
ref-2	error	Reference	At least one of reference, identifier and display SHALL be present (unless an extension is provided). : reference.exists() or identifier.exists() or display.exists() or extension.exists()
