Length of Time in Program

Length of time (LOT) data errors are based on data in the Project Start Date and Project Exit Date.

When a client has an Entry/Exit record with a provider where the LOT is greater than the maximum days for that project type, reports will flag this as a data quality error.

For Emergency Shelter projects (ES) this maximum is 90 days.
For Transitional Housing projects (TH) this maximum is 730 days.

LOT errors:

This may or may not be a data entry error. Check the following things:
- Confirm that the Project Start and Project Exit Dates are correct for each client. If incorrect, update to the the information with the exact entry/exit dates.
- If an Exit Date is missing, ensure the client should be exited and, if so, add the exact Exit Date for the client.
If the Project Start and Project End Dates are correct, there is no need for further action.
