A segment identifying the type of and reference log number of this request, as well as any related DMRs. In order to ensure proper identification of related DMRs, this segment shall identify, if existing, any parent and child DMRs one level above or below the current level. This segment shall not identify grand-parents and grand-children at any level. (Although a related DMR may have multiple parent DMRs and/or multiple child DMRs, the parent and child DMRs for these related DMRs will not be identified in the current DMR.) A related DMR(s) at the highest level, will have no parent DMR(s). A related DMR(s) at the lowest level will have no child DMR(s). The actual DMR reference log number type may be: Original submitter, Entry point assessment log number, Central secretariat log number, or International assessment log number. The related reference log number type may be: Original submitter, parent DMR Original submitter, child DMR Entry point assessment log number, parent DMR Entry point assessment log number, child DMR Central secretariat log number, parent DMR Central secretariat log number, child DMR International assessment log number, parent DMR International assessment log number, child DMR Also, the submitter must identify a message design group with which the DMR should be associated.
