FDM.4:4.2 - Recover the rule that gives the event its effect

Obtain the applicable terms or institutional rule. Identify the event or action the rule recognizes, the actor and authority where required, the conditions and the effective time. Some effects require a communicative act; others depend on performance or another recognized occurrence.

A.2.8, A.2.8.PER and A.2.9 supply the respective duty, permission and communicative-work questions. Use the relevant specialist for disputed local terms. A record can be constitutive if the applicable rule gives the recording act that role.
