RAW_BIRTH_DATE is a date field which will display the encrypted birth date of the individual. When used in connection with an employee, the birth date field is a mandatory field. When used in connection with a candidate the birth date is optional; however if this candidate is to be hired, the field MUST be completed.  When a column is encrypted, that actual column will be blanked out to NULL, in this example, the [BIRTH_DATE] field, and the encrypted value is stored in the RAW type field on the same record. This ensures the data cannot be read in clear text.
