{Relative Start Day}
Num
Perm
Starting analysis relative day not directly characterizing AVAL and/or AVALC.
*SDTF
{Start Date Imputation Flag}
Char
(DATEFL)
Cond
The level of imputation of *SDT. If *SDT (or the date part of *SDTM) was imputed, *SDTF must be populated and is required. See Section 3.1.3, Date and Time Imputation Flag Variables.
*STMF
{Start Time Imputation Flag}
Char
(TIMEFL)
Cond
