Eikon API: how to get the right calcdate for TR.PEG?

Question on behalf of a client. Client would like to calculate the historic TR.PEG for NSI (RIC: NSTEc.AS). The following code gives the wrong output for calcdate. Therefore, it is not clear for which this date this TR.PEG applies. Can anyone help out please? Thanks!

start_date = str(20161231)
end_date = str(20170301)

my_symbol = "NSTEc.AS"

data, error = eikon.get_data(my_symbol, ["TR.PEG", "TR.PEG.calcdate"], {"SDate":start_date, "EDate":end_date})

This issue has been previously raised here. The workaround is to swap the values of SDate and EDate, i.e. ensure that SDate>EDate.

Thanks Alex, you are right. Your workaround works. My apologies I didn't see your answer on Jan's post. Please note that searching for "calcdate" in the forum doesn't return Jan's question. Does the search function also search in the body of the questions?
