The PMHC MDS currently supports uploads in both the Version 1 format as documented at http://docs.pmhc-mds.com/projects/data-specification/en/v1/ and the Version 2 format as documented at http://docs.pmhc-mds.com/projects/data-specification/en/v2/.

After the 30th of June 2020 the PMHC MDS will no longer accept uploads using the Version 1 format. Please ensure that you have migrated to using the Version 2 format before this date.

A summary of the changes between version 1.0 and 2.0 are as follows:

  • Version 2.0 introduces a new metadata file or worksheet. In version 1.0 a version number had to be specified as the first row in every row/worksheet. This row has been removed from version 2.0 and the version number has been moved into a separate worksheet. See https://docs.pmhc-mds.com/projects/data-specification/en/v2/upload-specification.html#metadata-file
