EDIT Introduction
Data Validation tool, allowing users to import data, run validation programs and export results
The validation process relies on a custom Scripting Language
Friendly web-based User Interface Independent Domains can be run in parallel on the
same EDIT instance
3
EDIT Integration
Exposes full API as Web Services Integrated with ECAS Integrated with EDAMIS
– detect incoming files and process them in unattended mode
– publish validation results to the Feedback Channel Integrated with the SDMX Registry
– fetch DSDs into EDIT structures– load codelists from the Registry
4
EDIT User Types
Programmer– Manages the Metadata needed by the User to execute
jobs– Sets up the unattended mode configuration
User– Executes jobs on datasets
Administrator– Manages users and permissions

EDIT Scripting Language Overview
Custom Scripting Language designed specifically for data validation
Simple but flexible Allows the definition of
– Formats – Programs
10
EDIT Scripting Language Overview
Rules can perform both Validations and Computations– Record level– Vertical (with multiple transpositions)– Hierarchical (multiple interlinked datasets loaded inside a
single composite dataset) Dataset Operations
– Create new data structures from one or multiple inputs– Copy, Merge, Alter, Aggregate, etc.

EDIT Installation
Standalone Installation – All components running on the local user’s machine– Supported for Microsoft Windows® XP, Vista, 7 and 8– Simple installation wizard– Shortcuts are created in the Start Menu for easy user
access Server Installation
– Distributed components on centralized servers– Currently available in DG DIGIT’s Datacenter and ESTAT
User Access via Web Browser

Planned Enhancements in 2013 (1)
Job Prioritization Multiple Job Executors & Load Balancing (Server
version) Validation Outputs External Inputs
– Read directly from a file (skip import step) or an external database
External Outputs– Write directly to a file (no export step) or external database
13
Planned Enhancements in 2013 (2)
Multilingual User Interface Temporary Outputs GESMES Registry Integration (GSM Import) Simplify the User Interface Simplify the User Workflow
