Availability of the data

In the description data descriptors may be marked with the data status Data withheld (see below). 

When you export data the export forms include the "Withheld data" options where you can decide how to handle those data (see below).  

• The default setting Suppress whole description will exclude the whole description dataset from the export.  

• The setting Hide withheld descriptor will include the description dataset in the export, but descriptor data that are marked as "Data withheld" will be suppressed.  

• The setting Export withheld data will include all data in the export.  

The options mentioned above are also available for the cache database. Additionally there are powerful filters to restrict the exported description items and dedicated descriptor and scope data may be excluded from export.  

Finally the document generation by default excludes all descriptions that have any descriptor with data status "Data withheld". This is indicated by the button in the upper right corner of the form. By clicking this button the descriptions may be included, which is indicated with the inactive icon . Withheld descriptors will be skipped. For the document generators there is no option to include them.
