Keeping it · The failure record · Element

The causes

Why the promise failed, in categories that can be counted.

The part

What it is

Capacity, supplier, system, human error or a promise that was always too wide. The last is the one nobody wants to record and the most important.

Repeat causes are structural and belong back in deliverability rather than in this record.

The smallest level

The attributes it carries

Each attribute is one of the framework’s shared types. What a date is, and how it is written, is defined once for the whole model — the note here says what it means in this particular place.
