Notes:
CDS BULK REPLACEMENT GROUP is the Commissioning Data Set Group into which CDS TYPES must be grouped when using the Commissioning Data Set Bulk Replacement Update Mechanism.

CDS BULK REPLACEMENT GROUP is not required when the Commissioning Data Set Net Change Update Mechanism is used.

The Commissioning Data Set Bulk Replacement Update Mechanism process identifies previously transferred CDS TYPES that are to be replaced by the submitted Commissioning Data Set interchange. To do this the CDS BULK REPLACEMENT GROUP must be used together with the following data items:

• CDS REPORT PERIOD START DATE
• CDS REPORT PERIOD END DATE
• CDS INTERCHANGE SENDER IDENTITY
• CDS PRIME RECIPIENT IDENTITY

It is particularly important when using the Commissioning Data Set Bulk Replacement Update Mechanism for a CDS BULK REPLACEMENT GROUP to contain all the relevant CDS TYPES for the extracted time period in a single Commissioning Data Set Interchange, e.g. the Finished General Episodes, Finished Delivery Episodes and Finished Birth Episodes in a Finished Episode Group.

Permitted National Codes:

010	Finished General, Delivery and Birth Episodes
020	Unfinished General, Delivery and Birth Episodes
030	Other Delivery
040	Other Birth
050	Detained and/or Long Term Psychiatric Census
060	Outpatient (known as Care Activity in the Schema)
070	Standard variation of Elective Admission List End Of Period Census
080	New and Old variations of Elective Admission List End Of Period Census
090	Add variation of Elective Admission List Event During Period
100	Remove variation of Elective Admission List Event During Period
110	Offer variation of Elective Admission List Event During Period
120	Available/Unavailable variation of Elective Admission List Event During Period
130	New and Old variations of Elective Admission List Event During Period
140	Accident and Emergency Attendance
150	Future Outpatient (introduced in CDS Version 6 - known as Future Care Activity in the Schema)

CDS BULK REPLACEMENT GROUP will be replaced with  CDS BULK REPLACEMENT GROUP CODE, which should be used for all new and developing data sets and for XML messages.
