Notes on the source account

Özet ikinci görevi Halep, dördüncüyü Şam olarak gösteriyor ve Nasıra'yı anmıyor. Yedi ayrı hizmeti tarih, kurum, şehir ve maaşla veren tablo esas alındı; özetteki sıralama alternatif atamalar olarak çoğaltılmadı.
Nasıra vekâletinin bitişi ve Beyrut asli göreviyle ilişkisi açıklanmıyor. Beyrut maaşının vekâlet sırasında devam ettiği, iki maaşın birleştiği veya vekâletin İskenderun atamasına kadar sürdüğü varsayılmadı.
Son Halep görevinin bitişi veya ölüm tarihine kadar devam ettiği belirtilmiyor; 1313 ataması ve maaşı 1318 ölümüne kadar uzatılmadı.
