It is important to distinguish between the Date/Time Transacted, Created, and Registered. The Date/Time Transacted is when the event occurred. The Date/Time Created is when the record was created of the event, and the Date/Time Registered is when the record was registered into a recordkeeping system. For example, the Transacted time of a meeting is when the meeting was held, the Created time is when the minutes were written, and Registered time is when the minutes were entered into the recordkeeping system.

The time should be specified to (at least) the minute.

This element shall be used in conjunction with element M12 AGENT, subelement M13 Agent Type, Assigned Value ‘Record Creator’, with element M65 RECORD IDENTIFIER and with element M99 VEO IDENTIFIER.

In many cases the date and time of creation may be identical to the date and time of transaction (see subelement M56 DATE/TIME TRANSACTED) or registration (see subelement M57 DATE/TIME REGISTERED).

In many cases the date and time of creation may be identical to the date and time of the VERS record creation given in M8 OBJECT CREATION DATE.

A date/time must be expressed in the format defined in section 14 (but cannot be a date range).
