Keysets

Compustat items can be qualified by a set of secondary keys. This collection of secondary keys and values create a keyset that assigns a numeric code and mnemonic tag to each unique collection. Each keyset represents different output series. When multiple keysets are available for a particular data item, users can specify both the item and keyset to identify the series of interest or simply use the default preset combination that is most commonly used.

For example, the data item SALE has secondary keys for industry format, data format, population source, and consolidation level. A different value of company sales may be available for any combination of these keys. One keyset may represent originally reported sales. Another may represent the final restated sales from a later filing.
