* Show Project Statistics: Fact Date Earlier Than...

[Moirty]

I am using Show Project Statistics 2.8

I receive Exception Reports: "Fact Date is earlier than at least one "life" event recorded for this individual."
I also receive (for the same persons): "Fact Date is later than the individual's death date."

I believe these errors are being triggered because I have funeral and burial dates listed (naturally) after the person's death date. This sequence, of course, would be expected....but I wouldn't expect to get an exception.

I get this exception for several individuals but not for all individuals where funerals occur on subsequent dates. I do not understand the seeming inconsistency.

I could not figure out how to post a screenshot in the discussion, so here is the complete Fact listing for one of the individuals:
Dec 6, 1946 Born
Jun 9, 1991 Marriage to J****
Mar 10, 2012 Died
Mar 13, 2012 Funeral in H**** Funeral Home
Mar 13, 2012 Buried in C*** Cemetary


Thank you for helping me to understand this.

Are you using the standard Burial Fact, or a custom one? It sounds like you may have some of each and the custom one has a time frame of "Life" instead of "Post Death".
The Funeral fact will be a custom fact, and needs its normal time frame changing to "Post Death".

John is almost certainly correct that the exception warnings (they are not necessarily errors) are caused by custom facts with unsuitable NormalTime Frame definitions.
The same warnings should have been raised by FH when the facts were entered initially and are also produced by the standard Query > Fact Date Warnings.
Use Tools > Fact Types... and Edit the Funeral fact where you can review and change its NormalTime Frame.
