Process Support Input

Business

A form of Process Input that influences the work performed by the Process Step, and therefore influences its outcome, but is not in itself changed by the Process Step.

Process Support Input is a sub-type of Process Input. Typical Process Support Inputs include metadata resources such as Statistical Classifications or structural information used in the processing of data.

Examples of Process Support Inputs could include:
- A Code List which will be used to check whether the Codes recorded in one dimension of a dataset are valid
- An auxiliary Data Set which will influence imputation for, or editing of, a primary Data Set which has been submitted to the Process Step as the Transformable Input
- A Provision Agreement which can be used as a supporting document
- An Assessment from a previous Statistical Program Cycle which can be used as an input for the current Statistical Program Cycle
