I just received your adtest.xpt file and validated it using Pinnacle Community 2.1.0. there is a known issue though for custom variable labels that end in _SDT, EDT, etc…there is a bug where the label placeholders where reintroduced in 2.1.0 such as \_\_“End Date of …”_\_\_ which is being compared to your actual label. remove the labels in the components\config\ADaM 1.0.xml or ADaM 1.0 (PMDA).xml and those errors will disappear.

**_remove all the value within_**

Thank you!

Now everything runs without Errors.

Will this be corrected in the next version of Pinnacle 21 Community?

Regards, Heidi

Hi,

Running Pinnacle 21 Community to validate ADaM datasets we get the following error message that we didn’t get before with previous versions (i.e. with OpenCDISC Community): Variable label mismatch between dataset and ADaM standard

We get this error for all treatment date and/or time related variables in ADSL and all ADaM datasets where they had been copied to, e.g. for TR01SDT, label=“Date of First Exposure in Period 01”. I checked of course all corresponding variable labels but could not find anything wrong in it.

Please advise.

Thanks and regards  
Heidi
