1A12.2. Suffix codes relate to and identify requisitions and materiel returns program (MRP) transactions
for partial quantities to the original requisition or MRP transactions. Suffix codes do not relate to separate
transportation units involved in the shipment of materiel. Neither do they identify final shipments nor differentiate
between partial and finals.

directional flow of the document. (See also demand code in DoD 4000.25-1-M, Appendix 2.8.)

documents will consider the suf fix codes in combinat ion with dates, status codes, and quantities when
accounting for split transactions.
