It is intendedto aid individuals or entities in the development of their ownspecial reporting system. It
8、is recognized that a user may usethis guide in its entirety or may extract only those segmentsproviding the level of information required. Depending on theintended use, a report form may be designed to be used aloneor as a supplement to or incorporated within another reportform. This guide is not a
