Hi Philip,

I don’t think that’s the case. The range of dcterms:accrualPeriodicity is dctype:Frequency. It doesn’t follow that values are limited to cld:Frequency.

(However, I do agree that a recurring interval with a start date is out of range for dctype:Frequency.)

> Are there any existing terms that could be used in place of accrualPeriodicity using 8601 recurring interval syntax for more flexibility?

I’m not aware of anything suitable.

What is the requirement here? Express other frequencies besides those in cld:Frequency? Or express the precise time (e.g., not just monthly, but monthly on the 10th)?

Best,
Richard
