By Exception

A form of documentation where only information that fits a certain definition is documented and not all of the information that was generated by the activity. For example, in a HIRA, this most commonly happens when only those hazard scenarios that resulted in a recommendation(s) are documented and no others. In Asset Integrity, only those ITPM tasks that result in an out-of-specification result are documented.
