Hello,

Does anyone has some expercience withe the "cycle" attribute of Time = Period=20 and Collection Date. (2.2.3.1 en 2.2.3.2)

Do you use "wave 1", wave 2" etc.?

Another questions concerns the date attribute of Time Period=20 (2.2.3.1.) Isn't it strange to use an exact date to the time period = covered.=20

Doesn' t the time period refer to a much broader categorie. =

Kind regards,

Marion Wittenberg
