Hi Sven,
this should be ok, because the BBK01 is a generic prefix used for various
different time series across multiple statistics.
Using the key from dbnomics, you should be able to find the same time series
key also in the Bundesbank time series database.
For example:
https://db.nomics.world/BUBA/BBK01/AU1734
should be equivalent to this series
https://www.bundesbank.de/dynamic/action/en/statistics/time-series-databa...
Currently, when creating new time series codes, we (the Bundesbank) normally
follows the SDMX standard.
If you find that some of the data is not available, please just get back to
me.
Thanks, Johannes. I now see what's tripping gretl up: If I go to
https://db.nomics.world/BUBA/BBK01/AU1734 dbnomics presents the series
as "No name [AU1734]" -- and it's the absence of a name that provokes
the error in gretl.
