Description of the tool
The Reference Data tool can be used to publish and maintain code sets and their metadata.
The Reference Data tool enables you to produce hierarchical code sets, create code set extensions, mark code sets with variants and produce versions of code sets.
The Terminologies tool definitions can be used with the Reference Data tool.
Published code lists can be versioned and linked to other code lists. The metadata for the code lists is also extendable, which makes it possible to publish different types of domain specific attributes and hierarchies.
Reference data service is also integrated to the Data Vocabularies, which makes it easier to reuse common codes and implement the matching value restrictions to the data models.

Purpose of the tool
The Reference Data tool is intended for:
- everyone that maintains shared code sets or for everyone that uses code sets.
- The Reference Data tool makes it possible for everyone always to have the correct and same up-to-date version of the code set available to them.
- Code sets administrators may publish and maintain their own code sets in the Reference Data tool.
- The Reference Data user may use code sets published on the platform either by downloading them manually or via interfaces.
- The Reference Data Tool enables creating and publishing common public sector code lists and reference data. The code lists and their language versions are up-to-date, reliable, browsable to everyone beyond sector limits and downloadable to one's own use. Using common code lists enables interoperability in reporting, statistics and between information systems with.
