Hi Deepali, This issue is

Hi Deepali,

This issue is due to inconsistency or error in CDISC Control Terminology.

C101811 and C101812 code lists were introduced in 2012-12-21 version. C101811 was Name, C101812 was Code.

However in 2014-06-27 version CDISC switched codelist codes/names. The ChangeLog file reports only about a change of code list Names. E.g., for C101811:

Original: "Clinical Dementia Rating Test Code"
New: "QS-Clinical Dementia Rating Test Code"

However the Original value is incorrect. It was "Clinical Dementia Rating Test Name"

We believe that it's an error in the recent version of CDISC Control Terminology which should be fixed to be consistent with all previous versions.

Thank you,

Sergiy
