P21 Community Define spec generation assigns AE.AESTDTC as text instead of partialDateTime

Hello all,

When generating SDTM Define-XML specs from XPT files in P21 Community, we noticed that AE.AESTDTC was generated as partialDateTime in a previous study, but as text in a current study, which triggers a P21 finding.

Could you confirm how P21 determines the datatype for --DTC variables during spec generation? Should AE.AESTDTC and AE.AEENDTC be manually updated to partialDateTime when they contain ISO 8601 date/time values and may allow partial dates?

Thanks.

Jose.
