Carryover standard
In Japanese, mainly in manufacturing areas or industries, 流用 is often translated "carryover or carry-over". In this case, 流用 means someting which has been used as a commonly accepted model in that specific company/organization.
For example, 流用部品＝carry-over parts vs. 新規部品＝new parts
More than 3,000 hits with "流用" and "carry-over" on Google.

Common Specifications
流用 means these specs are being used for more than one model.
Say you have a machine, Type I, for which you already have complete specifications written up. Then you develop the next generation, Type II, and most if not all of the specs (User's Manuals, etc.) are the same. Then you would 流用 the specs from Type I. May also be expressed 併用 or 共用.

Interchangeability standards
The original Japanese sentence is somewhat ambiguous. Ms. Tina Wooden selected “common specifications” for 「流用基準」I basically agree with her, but it seems to me that “common specifications” means specifications that every manual（説明書）has to share. In this sentence, I would pick interchangeability standards instead.
(Sample) Interchangeability standards and the office functions manual should be the same in presentation.
