Topic: Duration description and expression seem to conflict
Troy Biesterfeld (Aug 31 2020 at 18:03):
The following description/expression of the "drt-1" constraint for Duration data type don't match at: https://www.hl7.org/fhir/datatypes.html#QuantityVariations
Description: "There SHALL be a code if there is a value and it SHALL be an expression of time. If system is present, it SHALL be UCUM."
Expression: "code.exists() implies ((system = %ucum) and value.exists())"
Based the expression, it's valid to have a value, but no code, which conflicts with the description. It seems like the expression instead should be more like the expression for Age, which starts like: "(code.exists() or value.empty()) and ...".

Can you submit a change request for us to correct?
Troy Biesterfeld (Aug 31 2020 at 21:21):
Sure, where do I submit a change request? Ah, looks like I may need to register for HL7 JIRA.

At the bottom of the page, there is a link to "Propose a change". You may have to request a creation of a Jira account, after which, you can submit change requests as you deem necessary...
