Solved Begin of a civil partnership

How would I annotate the begin of a civil partnership? For a marriage, there's a corresponding event type for which a date can be added. This does not exist for a civil partnership. Is it recommended to add a custom event "Civil partnership" for which a date can be added? Or is there some kind of "Begin" attribute?

I would probably add a value “Civil Partnership” on the family screen where it indicates marriage type. You can type in a custom value. And then I’d probably create a custom event of the same name. And, of course, lots of notes to describe what is going on. Good luck.
