NAVAL AVIATION LOGISTICS COMMAND MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEM The Naval Aviation Logistics Command Manage- ment Information System (NALCOMIS) has been implemented in most of the naval aviation maintenance activities. The system has automated the policies and procedures of the Naval Aviation Maintenance Program (NAMP). The hardware used in NALCOMIS terminals consists basically of a keyboard and a display screen. Other terminals may also include printers to produce hardcopy notices, reports, or documents. ‘These hard- ware provide an easy method for entering, retrieving, and displaying information needed to support aviation maintenance. The AKs must become familiar and learn to use the computer terminals to perform their tasks. This chapter discusses information that will help you expand your knowledge about NALCOMIS. The user can access the NALCOMIS by using the menu screen or bypass the menu by entering the conversation code in the proper field. The computer screen contains various information regarding the task being performed. Some of the information on the screen are the conversation code, the screen identifica- tion number, the screen title, and the calendar/Julian date. The error messages are also displayed if a field is entered incorrectly or a mandatory entry is left blank. When the user enters H or HELP in the action code field, NALCOMIS displays information about the screen being used. The hardware status messages display messages such as PRINTER BUSY FAULT, which can be cleared from the screen by depressing the clear reset key. Refer to the NALCOMIS user’s manual for more information about the system’s operation. ACRONYMS Various acronyms are used in all NALCOMIS operations. Knowing these acronyms will help you become efficient in performing your tasks. The list of acronyms is contained in appendix A of NALCOMIS Data Requirements Documents, RD-001B. Some of the acronyms are as follows: ACBAL – Accountable balance ADP – Automated data processing ALT – Alternate A/T – Action taken ATC – Allowance type code ATR – Automated transaction report AV-3M – Aviation Maintenance and Material Man- agement AWDUE AWP BCM BUNO CAGE CANCL CDA COMPL CXCMP DDSN DI DIFM DRP ER FAQ FGC FRC INPRO ISSER ISSIP JCN JCRFI LSC MCN NIIN OFFAR OFISS OFFMP OFFTR OFROB OFVAL O/H OMA – Awaiting due – Awaiting parts – Beyond capability of maintenance – Bureau Number – Commercial and government entity code – Total quantity canceled – Central Design Agency – Completed – Partial quantity received and remain- ing outstanding quantity is canceled – Document date and serial number – Document identifier –Due-in from maintenance – Designated repair point – Expeditious repair (EXREP) – Fixed allowance quantity – Family group code – Family relationship code – In process – Issue in process for serial number con- trolled item – Issue in process – Job control number – Job complete, ready for issue – Local status code – Maintenance Action Form (MAF) con- trol number – National item identification number – Offline for alternate NIIN review – Offline for issue in process – Offline for manual processing – Offline for technical research – Offline for receipt on board – Offline for validation – On hand (pertaining to quantity) – Organizational maintenance activity 7-2
