Derived_Age_In_Years |

Age in the CCRI database was split between two columns, Age Amount and Age Unit. In order to harmonize these two variables this particular column was generated.

An age of zero results when the source columns do not have valid values available. In the extract a zero derived age has been replaced with the code 99999001 (Blank). |
