What is the “Recipient Reporting Data Dictionary” and how do I use it?
The Recipient Reporting Data Dictionary is a document created for Recovery Act data standardization. It includes all of the data elements Federal Contractors will be required to report. Use of standards and templates makes reporting more accurate. Use of data standards helps users understand what data is required in what format for each data field and other useful information, such as when a data element will be inferred from another entry. The Recipient Reporting Data Dictionary can be downloaded from the “Downloads” tab of FederalReporting.gov and is also accessible via Recovery.gov.
