Hi All, I'm starting the CASCADE data checks and realized that we do not have an unknown coding for Origin in tblBAS. There currently is not a 99 UN code, but I'm hesitant to use this for Unknown as the UN codes we're using span roughly 0-1,000. We could use 999? Does anyone have thoughts? Ashley

While there isn't a code for "unknown", there is the code 001 for "World". Would that be suitable?

OK for now, we will use code 001 for now. Do we want to put an unknown for the 1.7 version to be consistent with the other variables? Or is this unique case where we're using standardized codes.

I don't feel we need a specific "unknown" for every variable if there is an obvious other possibility. B.
