When instances of an activity are scheduled at planned time intervals relative to a fixed reference point (e.g., an exposure), the following timing variables will be used:
Variable | Description of Use |
---|
--TPTREF | Represents a description of the fixed reference point from which the planned observation will be made |
--RFTDTC | Represents the actual date/time of the value of --TPTREF |
--ELTM | Represents the planned elapsed time from the fixed timepoint reference to the planned observation. The value of this variable is usually also reflected in the value of variable --TPT. |
--TPT | Represents the label for the time point relative to the value of --TPTREF |
--TPTNUM | Represents the order of time points represented in --TPT relative to the value of --TPTREF |
