Numeric Fields in data structure
When designing Data Structures in the ClinPlus Data Management System, numeric fields should always have their length set to "8".
In SAS, the numeric field length applies to the stored value's level of precision, not the number of digits allowed.
Setting a length less than eight may cause numbers to be rounded.
