Review outcome — effective date

effective date (ReviewOutcome.effectiveDate) is a field stored on each review outcome record in Chalk, the higher-education academic operations platform for curriculum, assessment, faculty, scheduling, accreditation, and budget. It holds a DateTime value and is part of the review outcome record's data. The effectiveDate field belongs to the review outcome it is recorded on, so faculty, staff, and automations read or set effectiveDate while working with that ReviewOutcome record. Because effectiveDate is part of the ReviewOutcome record, it stays consistent with the rest of that record's data and is scoped to the tenant that owns the review outcome.
