The guide makes one implementation lesson especially visible: a reported transition or revision needs period, line-item, and reason dimensions that agree with the statements and note. A tag cannot repair a weak classification or an unreconciled adjustment. The curriculum therefore uses the guide after the accounting and disclosure bridge is complete, as a release-control exercise.
