Date specimen was received into the laboratory of a CRC-CFR center. Format: YYYYMMDD.

Date Value Check
The date must follow to the following format: Format YYYYMMDD. Must consist of valid date. Components of date should be right justified and zero filled. MM = 01 – 12, 88, 99 DD = 01 – 31, 88, 99 YYYY = Minimum year – system date year, 8888, 9999 Use 88, 8888 for not currently known, in progress to obtain information. Use 99, 9999 for not known. If century is known, but year is unknown then give an estimate of year or code YYYY = 9999. If MM = 99 then DD must = 99. If century is known, but year is unknown then give an estimate of year or code YYYY = 9999. If YYYY = 9999 then MM and DD must = 99. The following special parameters are used:
1980	Minimum year
