EPMAC, Code 31, by message, stating all particulars.
Make sure the message includes the UIC in the text. If
your activity fails to receive an ODCR after verifying
its current address with EPMAC, it should notify the
Officer Data Research Section (PERS 1024D) by
message stating all particulars. Make sure the message
includes your commands UIC, Personnel and Pay
Services Unit Identification Code (PPSUIC), if
appropriate, and the name and SSN of at least one officer
attached to your command.
DIARY MESSAGE REPORTING
SYSTEM
In this section, you will get an overview of the
DMRS. You will also learn about some general
instructions and criteria for using this system.
PURPOSE OF THE DMRS
The purpose of the DMRS is to provide authorized
activities a way to submit officer and enlisted
transactions in coded format on naval messages. The
DMRS reduces preparation time and eliminates mailing
delays so that we can have more accurate personnel
management and manpower information.
SECURITY OF DMRS DATA
The data generated and processed by the DMRS
relates to information regarding individual service
members. Use of the DMRS creates sensitive,
unclassified Privacy Act data that must be protected.
Thus, the safeguards listed in the Privacy Act of 1974
must be observed. EPMAC acknowledges that the
DMRS operates at an acceptable level of risk but it also
certifies that it has adequately protected this system.
DIARY MESSAGE REPORTING SYSTEM
USERS MANUAL
All activities must use the DMRS transaction
formats in the Diary Message Reporting System Users
Manual (DMRSMAN), EPMAC, Document No.
1080#1 UM-01A, to prepare and submit messages. This
manual provides official guidance on submitting officer
and enlisted transactions in coded format. It also allows
transactions for multiple UICs to be reported in a single
message. The DMRSMAN must be used in conjunction
with the other publications listed in section 1 of the
DMRSMAN.
SUBMISSION OF DMRS MESSAGES
DMRS messages are designed for machine
processing. ADMRS message should be transmitted no
later than the next normal workday following the
occurrence of the event being reported. Events
occurring on weekends or holiday periods must be
submitted the next working day immediately following
that weekend or holiday period. All DMRS messages
are unclassified and must be transmitted to EPMAC
DIARY NEW ORLEANS LA//31//. Your command
should not send DMRS messages to BUPERS unless it
is specifically directed by BUPERS to do so.
PERSONAL COMPUTER DIARY MESSAGE
REPORTING SYSTEM
The Personal Computer Diary Message Reporting
System (PCDMRS) was developed by the Information
Center Division Information Systems Department,
EPMAC. It is a personal computer (PC) based program
designed to reduce preparation time and format errors
in transactions prepared for submission under the
DMRS. The PCDMRS is available to all PPSUIC
activities that have PC capability, a message generating
system, and an output media acceptable to their local
communications facility for transmitting naval
messages. Any activity designated as a PPSUIC activity
may request authority from EPMAC, Code 31, to use
the PCDMRS.
TRANSACTION CODES
The TACs are alphabetical and/or numerical ways
of identifying and controlling transactions. The
DMRSMAN provides the information your command
will need to convert events into a coded format and
report them via DMRS. For example, TAC 200 is a
numerical code that says Received For and is easily
processed by a computer. Including the ACC with the
200 identifies the reason for receipt. For example, ACC
100 is For Duty.
SUBMISSION VIA THE DMRS DURING
LOSS OF SDS EVENT REPORTING
CAPABILITY
In the event of the loss of SDS event reporting
capability, your command should transmit personnel
transactions via the DMRS as follows:
. When the loss of SDS or SDS increment 3
reporting capability is expected to be 14 days or less,
7-19
