Message:
ER 1007: Path Date Spec Collect 4 [value] must be a valid date.
Specification:
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 formats are allowed:
CCYYMMDD Century+Year, Month and Day are provided.
CCYYMM__ Century+Year and Month. Day consists of two blank spaces.
CCYY____ Century+Year. Month and Day consist of four blank spaces.
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:

When month is known, it is checked to ensure it falls within range 01...12.
When month and day are known, day is checked to ensure it falls within range for that specific month. Accommodation is made for leap years.
Historical Changes
10/10/07 New data items added to help identify path reports used in abstracting, to facilitate automatic new case abstract/pathology report matching at the regional/central registry, and to expand the space available in the path text field. Starting in 2008, visual editors will be reviewing path reports along side the submitted cases, so it is important to identify all the reports used by the abstractor.
2010 Data changes: CCR name (DxRx Report Date4) changed to NAACCR name because this is now a NAACCR required field. Length changed from 8 to 14. Modified to use the date format of CCYYMMDD and the new interoperability date functions and rules.
