Overview

The Securities and Exchange Commission (the Commission) is adopting revisions to the Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval System (EDGAR) Filer Manual to reflect updates to the EDGAR system. The revisions were made primarily to support the 2009 US GAAP Taxonomy, the Schedule of Investments (SOI) Taxonomy and to communicate a change in the Filer Support hours to 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. The revisions to the Filer Manual reflect changes within Volume I entitled EDGAR Filer Manual, Volume I: "General Information,' Version 7 (July 2009) and Volume II entitled EDGAR Filer Manual, Volume II: "EDGAR Filing,' Version 12 (July 2009). The updated manual will be incorporated by reference into the Code of Federal Regulations.
