Set an observation age limit

Prepare a five-minute limit for an explicitly registered Data observation contract. The original observation time and completeness scope come from the producer, not from an AI proposal.

For authors

Prepare a five-minute limit for an explicitly registered Data observation contract. The original observation time and completeness scope come from the producer, not from an AI proposal.

Read these instructions on any device. Watch or practise a chapter on a desktop or laptop, with a desktop or mobile application layout. Demonstrations use sample data and simulated scanners.

Set an observation age limit

  1. Read the original contract

    Read the original contract

    Check the observation and completeness references before changing the age limit.

  2. Prepare the source-owned controls

    Prepare the source-owned controls

    Keep the contract references fixed and prepare the permitted age control.

  3. Choose the definition change

    Choose the definition change

    Choose the complete definition so its current age limit is shown.

  4. Set five minutes

    Set five minutes

    Enter 300 seconds. Withdrawn, superseded and incomplete observations remain ineligible.

  5. Save the new definition version

    Save the new definition version

    Save the complete new version before supplying independent expected outcomes.

  6. Open the unreviewed version

    Open the unreviewed version

    The new version needs its own expected outcomes and independent review. Saving it does not change a Data release.

Watch or practise this chapter

The five-minute limit is a new unreviewed definition version. Data will still need an exact binding and its own complete release checks.
