F.6:6 - Reasoning Rules

• Accept the attribution only when the case establishes that W was performed under RA, W is a dated Work occurrence, RA is a named assignment occurrence with its participants and rule recovered, the assignment holder performed the Work, and the assignment rule covers the Work interval. A short account may then say that the holder System performed W under RA.
• If W and RA exist, the holder performed the Work, and the assignment covers the interval, do not infer the Work–assignment link. Check the case fact that establishes the link or leave it unresolved.
• If current support for an attribution statement is inadequate, reliance on that statement is unresolved. Do not infer that the Work was not performed under the assignment, and do not treat the statement or evidence as what makes the link true.
• If a source episteme merely names a performer or role, do not claim attribution until the Work and assignment are identified, the case establishes their link, the holder matches the performer, and coverage is checked.
