Question In writing a "plan" for a governmental organization is it better to label supplemental documents as attachments or appendices? Is there a difference? Can I have an attachment to an appendix to a report / plan?
Answer I would probably call them appendices, but I doubt if it really makes much difference as long as you are clear what you refer to when you mention them in the body. Probably if an appendix comes in multiple parts, you should label them something like Appendix A-01, A-02, and so forth.
