Century 
The Century setting specifies the current or sliding century. The default value for 
the Switch setting is Current. 
Value Description 
Current  Missing century numbers are derived based on the current 
system date. 
Sliding  Enables SlidingCentury options. Missing century numbers 
are derived based on the value of the CCLookup setting. 
Century > CCLookup 
The CCLookup setting specifies the first year in a 100-year range used to derive a 
missing century for a date item, using CCYY format. The default value for the 
CCLookup setting is 1950. 
For example, if the value of the CCLookup setting is 1960, a YYMMDD formatted 
date between 1960 and 1999 is interpreted as having a century date of 19, while 
dates between 2000 and 2059 are interpreted as having a century date of 20. In 
this case, 
♦  600101 is assigned a century of 19 
♦  580101 is assigned a century of 20 
Value Description 
n 
Enter a number in CCYY format that represents the start of a 
100-year range. Valid numbers are 1 to 9999.
