Definition:
For Commissioning data, every CDS TYPE has a "CDS Originating Date" contained within the Commissioning Data Set data that must be used to populate the CDS ACTIVITY DATE.
The CDS ACTIVITY DATE is held in the Commissioning Data Set Transaction Header Group and is a mandatory data element for all uses of the Commissioning Data Set for both Bulk Update and Net Change Protocols, see the Commissioning Data Set Submission Protocol supporting information.
For Bulk Update use, see: CDS V6-1 Type 005B - Commissioning Data Set Transaction Header Group - Bulk Update Protocol / CDS V6-2 Type 005B - CDS Transaction Header Group - Bulk Update Protocol
For Net Change Use, see: CDS V6-1 Type 005N - Commissioning Data Set Transaction Header Group - Net Change Protocol / CDS V6-2 Type 005N - Commissioning Data Set Transaction Header Group - Net Change Protocol
The CDS ACTIVITY DATE has an associated "CDS Originating Date" specifically identified for each CDS TYPE as follows:

Usage:
The CDS ACTIVITY DATE is validated by the Secondary Uses Service and Commissioning Data Set Interchanges are rejected if the date is not present, invalid or not compatible with the Commissioning Data Set Submission Protocol controls being used.
In particular, when using the Commissioning Data Set Bulk Replacement Update Mechanism, the CDS ACTIVITY DATE and its "CDS Originating Date" are used by the Secondary Uses Service to validate that the CDS TYPE date applicability falls within the CDS REPORT PERIOD START DATE and the CDS REPORT PERIOD END DATE.
