"Exception" is an SGML term that (pun intended) includes both
inclusions and exclusions. So if you have, say, a Chapter element
with a general rule like Title, Para+, Section* and an inclusion
of IndexTerm, then any Section in a Chapter can include IndexTerm
elements. However, when FrameMaker+SGML processes a fragment
consisting of a Section, it has no way of knowing that that Section
is intended for use within a Chapter and hence does not permit
IndexTerms. 

If you have this situation, you can:

1) Change the EDD to specify explicitly in general rules where the
   "inclusions" are permitted

2) Avoid using fragments
