Abstract: "This report describes a Stata procedure on spell splitting that has been developed by the authors. It is particularly suitable for the treatment of very large and/or daily spell data where the usual way of producing time-unit records is not feasible. The report presents also the generation of an indicator showing the combined spell types of parallel splits, and that in two versions: a numeric and a human readable string version. These variables are specifically helpful with the preparation and edition of splitted spell data. We explain the involved do-files in detail and with examples, so that this report can be used as a kind of textbook for similar data management tasks." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))
