3.9 Function Records can be classified in many ways, but two common methods are by subject and function. There are metadata elements to represent both methods of classification: Subject (M37) contains the subject classification, and Function (M50) contains the functional classification. Normally, only one of the two would be used. Function (M50) describes the function covered by the record. The Function (M50) element is equivalent to the AGLS Function element.

Note that these descriptors form a hierarchy. Although each descriptor can be repeated, this is not recommended as there is no way of indicating the hierarchy. If multiple functions need to be assigned to a record, the Function (M50) element should be repeated. An example of the XML representation of a function is: <naa:Function> | |||||
