We use Variable Label as specified in SDTM IG. Custom domains are populated using generic Variable Labels based on SDTM Model.

In cases when SDTM IG has invalid Variable Labels with length \> 40 characters, we replaced them with generic Labels from SDTM Model.

Kind Regards,

Sergiy

Hi,

1. Inspite of giving labels to,variables as per SDTM IG 3.2, validator giving warning of variable label mismatch. Any way to remove this warning?

2. The label of variable -STRESC in rule is not consistent accros domain. Some has “Character Results in Std Format” and some has “Character Results in Standard Format” . Any rationale?
