¶ Attributes
| Attribute Attribute type |
Use | Description |
|---|---|---|
| id xs:ID |
[O] | This standard XML data type is used to represent a unique ID. It is used to clearly identify the object in the DCC. The data type xs:ID is deliberately used here, as this enables validation in various tools without any add-ons. |

| refType dcc:refTypesType |
[O] | An XML List to link to reference types. |
¶ Examples
The calibration certificate was created according to ISO/IEC 17025.

</dcc:statement>
The client, Company XY, specifies the conditions for the declaration of conformity. The statement refers to an overall statement of conformity for the entire calibration certificate.
If the statement of conformity refers generally to a standard or other document that applies to the entire DCC, it belongs in a statement. The direct comparison values (numerical values) are specified on the dcc:quantity or dcc:list to be evaluated under dcc:measurmentMetaData.
<dcc:statement refType="/conformity">
