Common DTS Fields
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
record_date | DATE | Business date |
account_type | STRING | Account/balance type |
open_today_bal | CURRENCY0 | Opening balance |
open_month_bal | CURRENCY0 | Opening month balance |
open_fiscal_year_bal | CURRENCY0 | Opening fiscal year balance |
close_today_bal | CURRENCY0 | Closing balance |
transaction_today_amt | CURRENCY0 | Today's transaction amount |
transaction_mtd_amt | CURRENCY0 | Month-to-date amount |
transaction_fytd_amt | CURRENCY0 | Fiscal year-to-date amount |
Since April 18, 2022, close_today_bal is null. Select account_type:eq:Treasury General Account (TGA) Closing Balance and read open_today_bal for the closing balance (millions of USD). The similarly named opening-balance row is a different observation. See examples.md.
Table II has category hierarchies; preserve account_type, transaction_type, transaction_catg and transaction_catg_desc before selecting totals. Use the explicit Table I total deposit/withdrawal rows for a daily cash-flow summary. Do not add cumulative transaction_mtd_amt/transaction_fytd_amt across dates.
Federal Tax Deposits is historical; the current reporting structure uses Inter-Agency Tax Transfers and Table II. Short-Term Cash Investments is historical and was removed from the published report in February 2023.

MTS field and unit differences
| Table | Amount fields | Interpretation |
|---|---|---|
| Table 1 | current_month_gross_rcpt_amt, current_month_gross_outly_amt, current_month_dfct_sur_amt | Dollar amounts; each publication includes multiple months, fiscal years and YTD rows |
| Table 9 | current_month_rcpt_outly_amt, current_fytd_rcpt_outly_amt, prior_fytd_rcpt_outly_amt | Dollar amounts by receipt source/outlay function |
| Monthly summary | amt_category, mil_amt | One category per reporting month; amount in millions of USD |
record_date dates the publication, not necessarily the month described by a Table 1 row. For a simple monthly budget series use mts_receipts_outlays_deficit_surplus as shown in examples.md. Deficit is positive and surplus negative in its Deficit/Surplus (-) category.
Tables have totals, subtotals and structural rows with null values. Reconcile parent_id/classification_id within each publication before aggregating; classification IDs change between publications. Do not filter Table 1 for "Total Receipts": its receipt and outlay values are columns on month/YTD rows. Table 9 line 120 is the documented total-receipts example; inspect its label and hierarchy and use current_month_rcpt_outly_amt.
The dataset's generic notes describe published reports in millions, but live Table 1/9 API amounts are dollar-scale while mil_amt explicitly represents millions. Validate each field against the matching report; never apply one scaling factor to all MTS endpoints. API coverage starts at different dates by table; the dataset-wide 1980 start is not every table's first API observation.
