An EffForm represents a particular form (aka type) of effectivity and is intended to be implemented by concrete EffRecord implementations. The right EffForm interface for a particular EffRecord implementation depends on the contract an EffRecord implementation supports. For example: PendingSerialNumberEffectivity is an effectivity record implementation to support Serial Eff Forms (that are still pending - seeking approval / release of a change notice). Hence it implements SerialEffForm interface to enforce that contract.

In general, EffForm and its sub-interfaces, are used to classify the various effectivity forms supported . Apart from that, associations to EffContext and EffRange are generalized and specified at an EffForm level, supporting the notion, that an EffForm itself knows for the most part what are the expected associations to these classes. In other words, it knows what kind of range and what kind of association to EffContext is expected for its purposes. Concrete EffRecord implementations do have a chance to override these associations if need be.
