Description
Hi!
I'm trying to work out a bug, and wonder if the cohort_end_date should not also be required in the documentation for the getDbCovariateData-function?
"This function uses the data in the CDM to construct a large set of covariates for the provided cohort. The cohort is assumed to be in an existing table with these fields: 'subject_id', 'cohort_definition_id', 'cohort_start_date'. Optionally, an extra field can be added containing the unique identifier that will be used as rowID in the output."

Locate the getDbCovariateData documentation and implementation, then verify whether cohort_end_date is required. Done means correcting the documented required fields if the function requires it and checking the resulting wording.
