Reference:
I think here 実施契機 means execution timing, i.e. when the above mentioned functions are called/excecuted/implemented.
Note from asker:
| Hi. I think execution timing makes sense, based on something else I found in the document. Would you please post execution timing as an answer? That way I can award you the points. 謝謝你！ |
| Oops, I meant to say 謝謝您 |

Guys, let's try to be careful and post references to these sorts of questions. Though we can all be guilty of going on instinct from time to time (and I include myself in this), we have to remain mindful of the fact that these translations are products in themselves. Not to nag, but I would like to see more urls provided as references. Rant over ;)
