SYSE.20:4.2 - Record the Result

The Method-and-Work architecture account contains the seven result positions below. This table is the complete content set for this pattern’s first result; a project may represent it as prose, a table, or linked model content.

Result position	Required content
use boundary	Engineering result at risk, receiving decision or Work, configuration, intended use, time window, deciding Agent, and authority scope.
current Method and Work structures	Representative Work, performing Agents, enacted Methods, Work wholes, and every direct relation used by the decision.
companion structures	Only structures that change the decision, with each structure’s subject, use, important correspondences, and losses. Section 1 gives an open example set.
conflict	Incompatible results or constraints and the consequence for the engineered result.
moved burdens	Each material burden, the scope that loses it, and the scope that receives it.
alternatives and choice	Fixed option set, proposed changed relations, comparison basis, choice rule and actual bounded outcome: selected option or retained tie-set with grounds; rejected set with reason; chosen probe with its comparison defect; or named receiving question. Retain applicable losses and preserved constraints.
continuation	Next question or permitted Work, receiving Agents and their decisions, each supplied result, missing evidence and the reopen condition. Include implementation and later representative Work when that continuation applies.

The bounded decision record states the authorized Agent’s choice and reason. The architecture account can supply a design constraint to SYSE.12 and a project-local Method variant to SYSE.21; each receiver makes its own decision.
