Open the original- What it measures
- The addenda list only changes. G56.00, G56.01 and G56.02 do not appear among the additions, so they were already in the code set before FY 2017. The file is plain text, with the code written without its decimal point.
- What it does not show
- The file does not state the effective date. The FY 2017 code set ran from October 1, 2016 to September 30, 2017, following the same yearly pattern as the FY 2027 guidelines.
