Documentation
Definition
Start of a validity period.
Use
This data element is used to specify the start of a validity period of a communication number or a communication usage.
The entries consist of a 14-character time stamp in the form JJJJMMTTSSMMSS. If the field is initial, this means that the temporal validity of the communication number does not have a lower limit.
Dependencies
The time validity of communication data and communication usages in the current release can be differentiated at a date level but not at a time level. For this reason, the time entry must be initial or contain the value '000000'. If you enter other times, this leads to an error.
Example
You want the telephone number in the structure ADTEL to be valid as of November 30, 2003. You have to enter one of the following:
ADTEL-VALID_FROM = '20031130000000'
or
ADTEL-VALID_FROM = '20031130 '
If the validity of the telephone number in structure ADTEL should not be restricted, the following should then be transferred:
ADTEL-VALID_FROM = ' '.
