What does the Replace Drug ID do?

This filter replaces the first character of non empty fields of columns drugid_1 to drugid_50 with character "d".

Example:
drugid_1 = 1123231 before conversion
drugid_1 = d123231 After conversion

  

What does the Filter Fields do?

This filter fixes spelling errors in REDCap fieldnames. For example, in your REDCap export, a field like “othneur” might be spelled “otherneur”, which causes errors with NACCulator. This filter ONLY updates the spelling of the csv column headers; it does not alter any data.

Filter Format: InputColumnName: FixedColumnName

For example, the configuration would look like this:

                    [filter_fix_headers]
                    c1s_2a_npsylan: c1s_2_npsycloc
                    c1s_2a_npsylanx: c1s_2a_npsylan
                    b6s_2a1_npsylanx: c1s_2a1_npsylanx
                    fu_otherneur: fu_othneur
                    fu_otherneurx: fu_othneurxs
                    fu_strokedec: fu_strokdec
                    fukid9agd: fu_kid9agd
                    fusib17pdx: fu_sib17pdx
                

You can use the default configuration or you can upload your own custom filter.txt file.
