           Subpart 101-30.4_Use of the Federal Catalog System

 

Sec. 101-30.401-2  Automated catalog data output.



    As a result of participation in the Federal catalog system, 

activities may receive data directly from DLSC tailored to their 

individual needs in support of their own supply management data system. 

The two basic categories of file maintenance are:

    (a) Simplified file maintenance (SFM). Subscribers to this category 

of file maintenance are provided replacement files (magnetic tape) 

semiannually containing selected technical and supply management data 

for those items on which they are a registered user. The subscriber will 

also receive a monthly maintenance update and cumulative monthly basic 

records from DLSC which may be used to maintain the semiannual basic 

file. Recipients of this form of file maintenance have latitude in 

selecting those items which meet the needs of their supply system from 

the categories of data available from the Federal Catalog System.

    (b) Regular file maintenance (RFM). This form of the file 

maintenance provides activities with data on a daily basis as 

transactions affect items upon which they are a registered user. It is 

used primarily by those activities which consider it essential to 

maintain file compatibility with the DLSC file at all times.
