The edge cases

Customers the rule does not clearly assign.

The part

What it is

A customer growing across a size boundary, one operating in two geographies, one buying two product lines.

These recur, and deciding a few in advance produces precedents that handle the rest.

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.
