Rule 8. Add a Record Version with a Noncontiguous Effective Period
You can add a record version with a noncontiguous effective period.
If the following conditions exist, rule 8 applies:
The specified effective period is not contiguous with the effective period of an existing cross-reference record.
The changed period end date is before the period start date or the changed period start date is after the period end date of the existing cross-reference data.

behavior:
The existing version of the cross-reference record remains unchanged.
If the base object can have noncontiguous effective periods, a new version of the cross-reference record is inserted with the specified effective period.
If the base object must have contiguous effective periods, a new version of the cross-reference record is not inserted and an error is generated.
