Legacy

Similar to the old Transfer Ready date and time, but we eliminated special cases and differences between medicine and critical care. Going forward the entry will be collected even if pt dies or goes to ER etc. It's the intent that counts, not what ended up happening. Resp. field names L_Log.R_TRDate and L_Log.R_TRTime
