ALLOWABLE VALUES

A valid, complete date in YYYYMMDD.

General Date Editing Rules:

Date fields are recorded in the D1 date format of year, month, day (CCYYMMDD). Month and day must have leading zeros for values 01...09.

The following date format is allowed:

CCYYMMDD Century+Year, Month and Day are provided.

Dates are checked first to ensure they conform to one of these formats, then for errors in the components. Checking stops on the first non-valid situation.

Range Checking:

Lowest allowed value:  January 1, 1850 (or in D1 format: 18500101)

Highest allowed value: current system date

The month is checked to ensure it falls within range 01...12.

The day is checked to ensure it falls within range for that specific month. Accommodation is made for leap years.

SOURCE

If the admission was loaded into Eureka using regular file upload, then the Date Case Report Received is the date that was entered as the Date Received in the transmission log (this is the date that the user is asked to enter when uploading the file).

If the admission was migrated to Eureka, the Date Case Report Received is taken from the Date_Case_Rec value in the Admission Historical table, if it exists.

If the admission was created from a NER source document (during the NER Upload process) then the Date Case Report Received is initially set to null.

From Eureka version 4.4, if the admission is created using the New Case Entry page, then the Date Case Report Received will be the date and time that the admission is entered into Eureka.

In all other cases (e.g. the admission was migrated but there is no Date_Case_Rec value in the Admission Historical table, or the admission was created using the New Case Entry page prior to Eureka version 4.4), then Date Case Report Received is null.
