Methodological notes
...
the reference period was moved to December 2015 (before it was December 2010)

In response, we have:

1. Archived the predecessors (2010=100 or Dec2010=100, January 2013 to December 2017) by renaming with an "_10" specifier, by marking metadata as "discontinued", and by segregating in the catalog.
2. Created one-for-one replacements (2015=100).
3. Extended the headline index from January 2017 to January 1993.
4. Synchronized our seasonally adjusted supplement.
5. Assigned standardized mnemonics to predecessors and replacements.

Dataset properties:

• Activity classification: SK NACE, the adaptation of NACE Rev. 2, with scope of divisions 05 to 39
• Measure: Fixed-base index relative to December 2015 (Index Dec2015=100) or relative to average of 2015 (Index 2015=100), or moving-base index relative to corresponding month in 2015 (Index CP 2015=100)
• Adjustment: Not seasonally adjusted (NSA)
• Native frequency: Monthly
• Start date: January 2017
• Subject to revisions: No
• Lag: One month

The active series reside in the historical catalog (Slovak Republic » Price » Producer price index » 2015=100) and the predecessors under the associated discontinued node. They include, for example:

• PPIMF_10UM.ISVK = [DISCONTINUED] Producer price index - Manufacturing, (Index Dec2010=100, NSA)
• PPIMMDMAM.ISVK  = Producer price index: Domestic industrial producers, (Index Dec2015=100, SA)
• PPICNUM.ISVK    = Construction work prices, (Index 2015=100, NSA)
• PPIAFUM.ISVK    = Agricultural products, (Index CP 2015=100, NSA)

Because catalog locations are subject to change, the upper-right search box on DataBuffet.com provides a "find in catalog" mode that accepts a mnemonic.

Please be aware that

This release includes a producer price index for industry (divisions 05 to 39), but also separate indexes for agriculture (01 to 03) and construction (41 to 43).
