Q4. Q5. Q6. What is meant by the term “unserviceable ammunition”? What is the purpose of requisition lead times? Aircraft squadrons afloat submit their requisitions to what department? TRANSACTION REPORTING LEARNING OBJECTIVE: Identify transaction reporting procedures and describe the various types of transaction reports, the procedures to be followed when preparing the ammunition master stock record card, and the ammunition lot/location card. Reports of ammunition transactions form the basis for maintenance of the CAIMS data file. This file, in turn, is the sole source of asset and expenditure information for ammunition logistics management. The high cost and limited availability of many munitions create a need at all command levels for continuous, intensive, and careful management of ammunition. This can only be done if the CAIMS data file is current and reliable. Therefore, it is very important for individual reports of ammunition transactions to be accurately prepared and forwarded in a timely manner. Ammunition reports are normally forwarded by routine message and NOT by speedletter or naval letter. TRANSACTION REPORTING PROCEDURES The ammunition transaction report (ATR) is prepared in a message format, as prescribed by NOCINST 8010.2 (series), and transmitted electrically. The message report consists of 7 paragraphs. Paragraphs 1 through 5 identify the number of transactions being reported, the serial number of the report, UIC of the reporting activity, the Action Class Code (ACC) of the reporting activity, and the date of the transaction respectively. Paragraph 6 provides specific information on the type of transaction, type of material, quantity of material involved in the transactions, on-hand assets of the material, and other data pertinent to the transaction. This section may contain one or more lines. Each line corresponds to a single transaction involving one type of material. All reportable transactions should be included in this paragraph, whether or not the items are included in paragraph 7 of the report. Paragraph 7 is for remarks concerning weapon serial numbers and other explanatory data, as required. Report Frequency Whenever an ammunition transaction occurs (transfer, receipt, expenditure, reclassification), an ATR should be submitted within 24 hours. Normally, reports are submitted daily at the end of the flying day. Occasionally, during certain tactical operations, the command restricts message transmissions to those that directly affect a particular operation. This restriction is called MINIMIZE. Transmission of ammunition transaction reports during MINIMIZE is authorized There are exceptions to submitting ammunition transactions within 24 hours. Ammunition onloaded or off-loaded by AE/AOE/AOR/AOJ/CV class ships in excess of 500 short tons is reportable within 2 days. Ammunition received by a ship or shore activity for further transfer (FFT) to another ship or shore activity is not reportable, providing it is transferred to the ultimate consignee within 7 days. Ammunition received FFT and held for more than 7 days must be reported as being received. In the remarks paragraph indicate RCVD FM (issuing activity) FFT (consignee). When the subsequent issue is completed, an offsetting report of the issue must be made. Ammunition transferred to an activity FFT to another activity must be reported as an issue. In the remarks paragraph show ISSUED TO (receiving activity) FFT (ultimate consignee). Ammunition Transaction Report Format ROUTINE precedence is normally assigned to an ammunition transaction report. However, higher precedence can be assigned when authorized by proper authority. A transaction report is classified only when the data contained in paragraph 6 or 7 of the report is classified. Paragraphs 1 through 5 are always unclassified A report that contains data in paragraph 6 on complete-round missiles, rockets, or torpedoes is CONFIDENTIAL. These reports should be declassified 6 years after the date-time group of the ammunition transaction report. This should be typed on the ATR at the left-hand margin on the first line after the last line of text as follows: DECL (enter day, month, and year for declassification). When paragraph 6 contains data on mines or mine components, the ATR must be classified according to OPNAVINSTS5513.7 (series). When data on complete onloads or off-loads is contained in paragraph 6, the 17-25
