GB922 User’s Guide R17.0.1

This document provides guidelines and examples of how to define extensions to the Information Framework. As a by-product, it also provides guidelines for developing Aggregated Business Entities (ABEs) that have not yet been modeled by the Information Framework team.

Use of these guidelines will enable extensions made by different people and organizations to have the same structure, thus enabling these extensions to be compatible with each other as well as with the Information Framework itself. It also enables such extensions to be proposed back to the Information Framework team for official incorporation as part of the Information Framework.
