Question
How to report data field B_05.02.0060 if the ICT third-party service provider is a direct provider (rank =1)?
Background on the question
The fill-in instructions for field B_05.02.0060 specify that the fields should be left blank if the ICT third-party service provider (template B_05.02.0030) is a direct ICT third-party service provider i.e. at ‘rank’ r = 1 (template B_05.02.0050). According to the data model, however, this field is marked as a primary key and therefore cannot be missing or reported empty. It is unclear how to fill in the data field without triggering a data quality error.
Answer
According to Data Model for DORA Register of information, data field B_05.02.0060 is marked as a primary key value. As a result it should not be missing or reported empty. If the ICT third-party service provider (field B_05.02.0030) is a direct ICT third-party service provider i.e. at ‘rank’ r = 1 (field B_05.02.0050), field B_05.02.0060 should be filled in with the same value reported in B_05.02.0030.
