All properly described in the manual.
However proper checking of the coordinates is very important, to check if you got what you wanted.
There have been many conventions used for years that were found to be unsafe and altered. This particular one will become extremely difficult
when Europe becomes 'business trajectory only' and multiple waypoints have to be entered. There is a demonstrated risk that someone has and will get it wrong in non-radar airspace. Who will take responsibility now the risk is known, if there is a mid air or even just an RA solved NMAC in transatlantic airspace?
