Description
The CENTSPAN system parameter is a numeric parameter that indicates the default CENTSPAN argument value to be used in a wide variety of $functions for the processing of dates containing two-digit years. The default setting for CENTSPAN (-50) means that start of the assumed range for two-digit years (in affected $functions) is 50 years before the current date.
The minimum value of CENTSPAN is -99 and the maximum value is 9900.
Some of the $functions affected by the CENTSPAN parameter are:
- $Sir_Date2N
- $Sir_Date2ND
- $Sir_Date2NM
- $Sir_Date2NS
- $Sir_DateChg, $Sir_DateChk, $Sir_DateCnv, $Sir_DateDif (see Sir2000 Field Migration Facility)
- $Web_Date2N
- $Web_Date2ND
- $Web_Date2NM
- $Web_Date2NS
Some of the SOUL methods affected by the CENTSPAN parameter are:
- DaysToString
- MillisecondsToString
- SecondsToString
- StringToDays
- StringToMilliseconds
- StringToSeconds
- TimeStringConvert
