how to calculate the total fertility rate using DHS.rates package as I always encounter this error message and it results in 0 tfr. If anybody knows plz help...

TFR_result <- fert(PKIR61FL, Indicator = "tfr", JK = "Yes")

The current function calculated TFR based on a reference period of 36 months
The reference period ended at the time of the interview, in 2013 OR Oct - NA 2012
The average reference period is 2011.5
Warning message:
In fert(PKIR61FL, Indicator = "tfr", JK = "Yes") :
Birth History variables b3_01:b3_20 are not complete; the missing variables were created

[1,] 0 0 40523 40535 NaN NaN 0 0 498
