The IT example below shows tobacco filler and the types of tobacco of which it is composed, each listed as tobacco ingredients (IGDCMPID) for the Tobacco Product CIG01A (SPTOBID). The variable ITSPECIF shows the specification (variety) of the first three tobaccos. ITIGDPLX is used to indicate that the Tobacco Filler and the Reconstituted Tobacco are complex ingredients (they both have two or more subcomponents). The details of which single tobacco ingredients compose these complex ingredients is made explicit in the IQ dataset example further down. ITCURMTH indicates the cure method. ITSPFL is used to indicate whether complex ingredients were made to the applicant's specification. TPMF indicates the Tobacco Product Master File. Note that there are two varieties of burley tobacco in this tobacco product, thus each is given a unique IGDCMPID value (Burley Tobacco and Burley Tobacco 2).

The IN dataset example below shows the list of non-tobacco ingredients TOBA-112

Getting issue details...STATUSTOBA-106

Getting issue details...STATUSused in the tobacco product identified as CIG01A. Each unique ingredient is listed in IGDCMPID. Where applicable, IUPAC name and CAS number are listed (IUPACNAM and CASNO, respectively). INIGDPLX is used to indicate whether an ingredient is a single ingredient or a complex ingredient. INSPFL indicates whether complex ingredients were made to the applicant's specification. Grade, purity, manufacturer name and ID number, and the Tobacco Product Master File number complete the dataset.
Finally, the IQ domain is used to represent the quantity (target, minimum and maximum) of each ingredient identified in IGDCMPID that the product (SPTOBID) is designed to contain, with the units for these values represented in IQUNIT. The function of each ingredient is described in IQFUNCT. Ingredients that appear in more than one component of the tobacco product are quantified separately for each component. IQPARENT identifies a component or complex ingredient composed of the subcomponents/ingredients shown in IDGCMPID. IQLEVEL is used to identify at what levelTOBA-240

Getting issue details...STATUS in the overall hierarchy that subcomponent/ingredient appears. The following implementation rules apply:
IQPARENT must correspond to a value of IGDCMPID in the same dataset. If parent is null, the ingredient is considered a top-level component and is assigned an IQLEVEL value of "1".
Records describing subcomponents/ingredients that compose a parent component listed in the dataset will have IQPARENT value equal to the IGDCMPID of that parent component. IQLEVEL will be set to n +1, where n=the parent record's value of IQLEVEL
Every value of IGDCMPID used in the IQ dataset must have a matching value of IGDCMPID:
In the IT dataset (when IQCAT=TOBACCO INGREDIENT) or,
In the IN dataset (when IQCAT=NON-TOBACCO INGREDIENT)
Therefore, IQCAT is required to relate ingredient quantity records in IQ to the associated ingredient attributes described in either IT or IN.
The use of IQPARENT and IQLEVEL help make explicit the relationship between complex ingredients or components and the subcomponents/ingredients of which they are composed, and can assist when totaling the quantities of an ingredient that appears in multiple components of a tobacco product.

Concept Map. Relationships of Components, Subcomponents and Ingredients in IQ
Alhough a tobacco product may consist of multiple components, this concept map illustrates the representation of the hierarchical relationships between a single component and and its subcomponents/ingredients in the IQ domain structure using IDGCMPID, IQPARENT, and IQLEVEL. The hypothetical parent component has 2 subcomponents/ingredients, A and B. Additionally, component B, a complex ingredient, consists of two ingredients, B1 and B2. A total of 5 components, subcomponents, and ingredients (purple boxes) would be represented in the IQ domain.
The IQ dataset example illustrates the principles discussed above using a cigarette tobacco product:
Rows 1, 13, 16:
Show three top-level components of a cigarette product: tobacco filler, filter, and cigarette paper, respectively. Their target, minimum and maximum quantities expressed in units of mg/cigarette are shown in IQVALTRG, IQVALMIN, IQVALMAX and IQUNIT. Because there is no parent component other than the finished product itself, IQPARENT is null, and IQLEVEL = 1, indicating that these are top-level ingredients/components of the finished product.
Rows 2-5:
Show the quantities of four types of tobacco used in the product. IQPARENT=Tobacco Filler and IQLEVEL=2, together indicating that these are sub-components of the tobacco filler, a top level-component of the cigarette product.
Rows 6-8:
Show the three sub-component tobacco ingredients that comprise reconstituted tobacco in row 5 (IQPARENT=Reconstituted Tobacco). The quantities of these tobaccos pertain to the quantity at which they appear in the reconstituted tobacco ONLY. Therefore, the total quantity of the individual tobaccos used in this tobacco product is the sum of these three plus the sum of the quantities shown in rows 1-3. IQLEVEL=3 to show that these ingredients are at the 3rd level of the hierarchy (sub-components of an ingredient with IQLEVEL=2).
Rows 9-10:
Show the quantities of two non-tobacco ingredients, Methylcellulose and 1,3-Butanediol, which are further sub-component ingredients of Reconstituted Tobacco as indicated by IQPARENT. IQFUNCT shows that Methylcellulose functions as a binder and 1,3-Butanediol functions as a humectant. IQLEVEL=3 to show that these ingredients are at the 3rd level of the hierarchy.
Rows 11-12:
Show the quantities of two sub-component ingredients that both function as a flavorant in the tobacco filler (as indicated by IQFUNCT= Flavor and IQPARENT=Tobacco Filler).
Rows 14-15:
Show the quantities of two sub-component ingredients that function as filtration and plasticizer, respectively, in the filter portion of the cigarette (Cellulose Filter A, a top-level component shown in row 13).
Rows 17-22:
Show the quantities and functions of six sub-component ingredients of the top-level component FSC Paper B (the cigarette paper shown in row 16).
