This section of the DDEX Knowledge Base contains the Allowed Value Lists (Version 1.4.1) used by the Profiles of the Flat File Variant of the Digital Sales Reporting Message Suite Standard and the Claim Detail Message Suite Standard

1 Introduction

This standard was developed by the member organisations of the Digital Data Exchange, LLC (DDEX) and provides a message that gives a uniform mechanism to enable Licensees (typically Digital Service Providers) to report to Rights Controllers (typically Music Rights Societies, Music Publishers, Music Licensing Companies and/or Record Companies) information regarding the level of usage and/or revenue generated from the distribution of such products, as well as sales of products based on Releases, to the relevant Rights Controllers.

The Flat File Variant of the Digital Sales Reporting Message Suite Standard has been developed in response to concerns regarding the file size and computational complexity of the XML Variant, and will lead to reduced implementation and running cost for Licensees and Licensors. The same principles are also used by the Claim Detail Message Suite Standard which allows the communication of claims and calculation details behind individual and aggregate royalty claims being made in respect of the Musical Works.

This Part 2 of the Digital Sales Reporting Message Suite Standard standard defines the allowed value sets and allowed values used in the various Record Types used in the Digital Sales Reporting and Claim Detail Message Suite Standards.

Any organisation wishing to implement this (or any other DDEX standard) is required to apply for an Implementation Licence. The terms of the licence and an application form can be found on https://ddex.net/implementation/implementation-licence-and-ddex-party-identifiers.

2 Scope

2.1 Introduction

The message design defined in the Digital Sales Reporting Message Suite Standard provides a mechanism for Licensees (typically Digital Service Providers) to report to Rights Controllers (typically Music Rights Societies, Music Licensing Companies, Music Publishers and/or Record Companies) Usage, Revenue or Sales from the exploitation of Products based on electronic Releases containing Sound Recordings and/or Music Audio-Visual Recordings which embody Musical Works and/or other Resources. The Flat File Variant is intended to provide a format for reporting information about the level of usage, revenue or sales generated from the exploitation of Releases and Resources for companies that do not wish to handle XML-formatted sales/usage reports.

Closely related to the Digital Sales Reporting Message Suite Standard is the Claim Detail Message Suite Standard that allows the communication of claims and calculation details behind individual and aggregate royalty claims being made in respect of the Musical Works for which usage information has been provided in a Sales/Usage Report Message.

This Part defines the Allowed Value Sets and their Allowed Values that can be used in the Digital Sales Reporting and Claim Detail Message Suite Standard.
