report writing: appendix format

Appendix ordering

In the main body of your report, you must signify when there is more information available in your appendices. We do this by adding the appendix item number or letter in brackets e.g. (Appendix A). The numbers/letters should appear in sequence whenever a new item is listed e.g. (Appendix B), (Appendix C) etc. In your appendix at the back of your report, include each item mentioned in the main body with the corresponding letter or number to identify it. In this example, the item has been listed as 'Appendix A'. The appendices that comes after would follow in sequence e.g. 'Appendix B', 'Appendix C' etc. Each item included in your appendices should be ordered in sequence e.g. A,B,C... or 1,2,3...

Information

Do not include any additional information or discussion in your appendix entries. Appendices should only supply the raw material mentioned in the report for the readers reference. Any discussion concerning the information in the appendices should be in the main body of your report.
