in version 2.02, the iati-activity/sector element contains the following attributes (link to the docs):
@vocabulary @vocabulary-uri@code @percentage
However the iati-activity/transaction/sector element only contains the following attributes (link to the docs):
@vocabulary @vocabulary-uri@code Should the attributes for these two elements be made consistent?
The @percentage attribute was deliberately omitted from the transaction/@sector attribute in the v2.02 upgrade. Whilst it can be argued that it is logical to add this, it was felt that this adds a greater level of complexity to the standard than is needed.
Additionally, at sector level, it was felt that dividing transactions, and reporting a transaction for each sector was an adequate workaround. If there is a clear use case that this approach is problematic, this issue can be reopened as a new proposal.
