Question 2.1.49 Data Field (53)

As per the TRUM document, Days of the week allows the value " " which means “All days”.

But the specification in the ACER XSD says;

<xs:simpleType name="daysOfTheWeekType">

<xs:restriction base="xs:string">

<xs:pattern

value="((SU|MO|TU|WE|TH|FR|SA)to(SU|MO|TU|WE|TH|FR|SA))|(SU|MO|TU|WE|TH| FR|SA|XB|IB|WD|WN)"/>

</xs:restriction>

</xs:simpleType>

Due to this restriction, XML file fails validation wherever days of the week is " ".

We would like to flag this to ACER. As a solution to this issue, should we have to display SUtoSA for All Days instead of “ “. Please advise.

Answer: The symbol “ “ means blank and it means all days. Please note that the field is not mandatory.
