I use the neumonic D.E.R.P. to remember the order. D - declaration E - ex dividend R - record P - payment That's the chronological order / timing of how the dates work as it relates to dividend. Often the timeframe between ex-dividend and record is 3 days, the same amount of time for most stock sale settlements.

D – declaration
E – ex dividend
R – record
P – payment
