Add days to cohort start
padCohortStart.RdpadCohortStart() Adds (or subtracts) a certain number of days to the cohort
start date. Note:
If the days added means that cohort start would be after cohort end then the cohort entry will be dropped.
If subtracting day means that cohort start would be before observation period start then the cohort entry will be dropped.
Usage
padCohortStart(cohort, days, cohortId = NULL, name = tableName(cohort))Arguments
- cohort
A cohort table in a cdm reference.
- days
Number of day to add to the cohort start date.

Vector identifying which cohorts to modify (cohort_definition_id or cohort_name). If NULL, all cohorts will be used; otherwise, only the specified cohorts will be modified, and the rest will remain unchanged.
