A-SPEC

The full A-SPEC suite has landed on Version 5. To keep everything consistent, every document's version and release date is now tied to the A-SPEC version number — so wherever you see “A-SPEC Version 5,” you'll know exactly which release date and document set that refers to.

Start with the A-SPEC Introduction & Overview Requirements document — it covers the shared rules that apply across every data specification. Always read your specification alongside it.
