Over the past couple of years, trace maps over Galois fields and Galois rings have been used very succesfully o construct cocyclic Hadamard, complex Hadamard and Butson Hadamard matrices and subsequently to generate simplex codes over Z4, Z2 and ZP and new linear codes over ZP. Here we define a new map, the trace-like map and more generally the weighted map and extend these techniques to construct cocyclic Budson Hadamard matrices of order (nm) for all n and m and linear and non-linear codes over Zn.
