DAC 5 Digit Sector code 12196 being flagged as invalid

[lucasfog1]

Hello, the validator is giving me the following error:

"The OECD DAC sector is invalid.9.76.1 (see guidance) For value 12196"

However, 12196 is is on the codelist ( https://iatistandard.org/en/iati-standard/203/codelists/sector/ ).

Is this a validator bug or is the codelist out of date?

Many thanks for your help!

It is also marked as active on the codeforiati version in case that helps: https://codelists.codeforiati.org/Sector/#12196

@lucasfog1 thank you for flagging and I can confirm that this is indeed a valid sector code so you can continue using it. I'll flag this with our developers to investigate why an error has occurred in the validation report and to make sure the codelist checks on the validator are done with the most recent version of the codelist.

We are still in testing phase but plan to launch the IATI validator at the end of Septemeber, so your feedback is much appreciated: https://iativalidator.iatistandard.org/

Please do raise any future issues directly into this repository: https://github.com/IATI/IATI-Validator-Web

@PetyaKangalova Thanks a lot for confirming. I've noted the repository to use if I encounter any future issues. Looking forward to the much anticipated launch!
