    Which Stage Applies to You?

    Government entities may enter at any stage

    depending on jurisdictional circumstances.

    The Compilation Guide, along with the

    applicable IPSAS, will be used as the criteria toidentify the stage in which to enter.

    The Compilation Guide will be revised as

    necessary in response to experience in field

    testing.
