In the interim, please refer to the Compliance Monitoring Guidance (PDF) provided in the February 13, 2008 memorandum from OJJDP Administrator J. Robert Flores, which takes precedence over the Guidance Manual in those instances where the two diverge.

Annual Compliance Monitoring Report (Automated Spreadsheet Format)
OJJDP has developed a template to
use on the Microsoft Excel spreadsheet program. This template requests all
of the information to be submitted to fulfill the State's annual reporting
requirements.
States that are considering using this form should note the following:
- The electronic form is a template only. To use it the State
must first have the Microsoft Excel program, version 97 or greater.
- OJJDP cannot provide technical assistance or training on using
Microsoft Excel. Those not familiar with Microsoft Excel should
use the paper format below.
- The template cannot and should not be modified. If modifications
are necessary because of differences in the manner in which a
State monitors for compliance, the State should use the paper
format to fully explain those differences.
- Although it is provided as an electronic template, the form
should not be submitted electronically. The entire workbook with
all spreadsheet tabs must be printed and then sent to OJJDP with
all of the requested attachments. When ready to print in Excel,
select File, Print, then under "Print What," select "Entire
Workbook."
