Dear All,

P1 is identified by (identifies) is a shortcut for the path from E1 CRM Entity 
through P140i was attributed by (assigned attribute to), E15 Identifier 
Assignment, P37 assigned (was assigned by) to E42 Identifier. In FOL:

P1(x,y) ⇐ (∃z) [P140i(x,z) ∧ E15(z) ∧ P37(z,y)]

P1 has the range E41 Appellation but P37 has the stricter range E42 Identifier. 
Thus, the shortcut can be improved to:

P1(x,y) ∧ E42(y) ⇐ (∃z) [P140i(x,z) ∧ E15(z) ∧ P37(z,y)]

If something has an identifier, there must have been an Identifier Assignment 
event before. Thus, the other direction is also true. Taken together:

P1(x,y) ∧ E42(y) ⇔ (∃z) [P140i(x,z) ∧ E15(z) ∧ P37(z,y)]

In the P1 scope note it could be formulated as:

In the case that the associated appellation is an E42 Identifier, this property 
is a strong shortcut for the path from E1 CRM Entity through P140i was 
attributed by (assigned attribute to), E15 Identifier Assignment, P37 assigned 
(was assigned by) to E42 Identifier.

Best,
Wolfgang
