Enumeration Summary reviews who lived in the household at the time of the previous

round interview and determines who still lives in the household in the current round.

Enumeration Summary also probes for new household members in the current round.

In order to collect current round household information, a current round ENUM record is

generated for each person, including SP, who lived in the household at the time of the 

previous round interview. If MRES.INTTYPE = 2/NewFromFacility,

3/NewFromSupplement, 5/LastRndFacSum, 6/LastRndFacBase, only create a current

round ENUM for the SP. Since the SP did not have a community interview in the previous

round, there will be no persons reported as living in the household in the previous round.

ENUM Key = ENUM.ENUMBASE + ENUM.ENUMROST + ENUM.ENUMRND.

ENUM.ENUMROST = ROST.ROSTNUM of person who lived in the household in the

previous round.

ENUM.ENUMRND = current round.

When creating the current round ENUM records, populate the person's name, relationship

to SP, gender, and date of birth from ROST. 

Use the following logic to caculate the Household members's age stored on

ENUM.HHPAGE:

If calculating SP's age then:

If SP is deceased, calculate AGE based on SP's date of birth, ROST.HHDOBMM,
ROST.HHDOBDD, ROST.HHDOBYY, and the SP's date of death, MRES.SPDIEMM,
MRES.SPDIEDD, MRES.SPDIEYY.
Else if SP is institutionalized, calculate AGE based on SP's date of birth,
ROST.HHDOBMM, ROST.HHDOBDD, ROST.HHDOBYY, and the SP's date of institution,
MRES.SPINSTMM, MRES.SPINSTDD, MRES.SPINSTYY.
Else calculate SP's AGE based on their date of birth, ROST.HHDOBMM,
ROST.HHDOBDD, ROST.HHDOBYY, and the date of the interview.
If calculating other Household members's age then calculate AGE based on their date of
birth. ROST.HHDOBMM, ROST.HHDOBDD, ROST.HHDOBYY, and the date of the
interview. If any part of the Household members's age is missing and AGE cannot be
calculated, set current round ENUM.HHPAGE = previous round ENUM.HHPAGE.
Set other fields on ENUM as instructed below. Copy ROST variables to ENUM where
ENUM.ENUMROST= person's ROST.ROSTNUM.
ENUMROST

Create ENUM where
ENUM.ENUMROST=ENUM.ENUMROST for person
who lived in the household at the time of the
previous round interview.

ENUMRND

ENUM.ENUMRND = current round.

ENUMFNAM

ENUM.ENUMFNAM = ROST.ROSTFNAM.

ENUMLNAM

ENUM.ENUMLNAM = ROST.ROSTLNAM.

HHPREL

ENUM.HHPREL = ROST.ROSTREL.

HHPRELOS

ENUM.HHPRELOS = ROST.ROSTREOS.

Else if ROST.ROSTSEX = 1/Male or 2/Female, set

Else if set ENUM.HHPSEX = previous round

ENUM.EHHDOBMM = ROST.HHDOBMM.
