For all new reports, the system will automatically generate a Report ID. The ID describes the type of report, and also includes a little code at the end. The first two letters of the code are the state or territory abbreviation (so if you want to review a report from Virginia, you'll look for VA). The next four numbers are the year of the data (so this report is from 2015). The next letters represent the type of data (Adult, Child, Health Homes, or Maternal and Infant Health) and the type of report (Quality Measures, SPA, etc.)
