Correction, it references a node shape that defines what facts you want to add 
to specific triples.

First, create a Node Shape e.g., Effectivity with properties effective start 
and end.

Then, go to the property shape for the type of triples you want to annotate 
with effective dates (eg., works for property for a Person) and connect it to 
the node shape using reifiable by.

I believe this is covered in the EDG users guide for ontologies, but I am not 
in front of my computer, so can’t provide a link.

It is also covered in the slide attachment to this recent webinar 
https://www.topquadrant.com/what-is-new-in-topbraid-edg-6-3/
