{% hint style="info" %}
The service sector data file was introduced in Data Release 8 with [detailed longitudinal data](/finngen-data-specifics/red-library-data-individual-level-data/what-phenotype-files-are-available-in-sandbox-1/detailed-longitudinal-data.md) from INPAT, OUTPAT, PRIM\_OUT, and PURCH registers with three additional columns: CODE5-CODE7. In Data Release 9 v2.0, data from REIMB, CANC and DEATH registers were added to the file. In Data Release 10, two more columns were added: CODE8-CODE9.
