Definition

Offset with a sign that is added to the event date, to calculate the declaration date. The offset is connected with the field Date Type.

Use

If the field Date Type has the value week, the program takes into account 7 days for a week. If the field Date Type has the value month, the program tries to shift the actual day of the month to the same day of the resulting month.

See also: Calculation Declaration Date.
