Date fields blank, null or “Unknown”. Examples:
- 00365818 - companies search has "date_of_cessation": “Unknown”, company profile just doesn’t have this field. Company “status”: “dissolved”.
- NF002764 - companies search: “date_of_cessation”: “Unknown”, company profile doesn’t have this field. “company_status”: “converted-closed”
- SZ000001 - companies search has “date_of_creation”: null, company profile has “date_of_creation”: “”. Company “status”: “active”.
Related issues have been noted before - IIRC we’ve also found epoch-format values in date fields (sorry, no example recorded):
P.S. dates within “description_values”: { “description”} (“legacy” fields) in filing history - presumably these won’t be marked up and will stay as plain data? Example from company 00229606 (some fields removed for clarity):
{
“description”: “legacy”,
“links”:
{
“self”: “/company/00229606/filing-history/MDAxMjU4NjA0NGFkaXF6a2N4”
},
“description_values”:
{
“description”: “Return made up to 25/07/05; full list of members”
},
“type”: “363s”,
“date”: “2005-08-18”,
“category”: “annual-return”,
“transaction_id”: “MDAxMjU4NjA0NGFkaXF6a2N4”
}
