Populate linking pairs
As part of vetting CFE needs to pair up any records for the consecutive/continuous admission of a patient.
Instructions
- be sure you have completed Pre-linking checks
- click the "populate linking_pairs" button on the main screen
- 2018-Apr-27: NOTE: takes ~10 minutes to run
- After this is done, move on to Correcting suspect links
Implementation
Because MS Access doesn't have functionality to compare data in a "current" to a "next" record this is implemented as an iterative process in Module linking Sub populate_linking_pairs which populates the linking_pairs table.
