What is the purpose of the VAF?

An Assets Tracking application has a batch update process. Twice a month each of the branch offices sends a transaction file to the headquarters.

• Records are flagged with an "A" for equipment that is Added to the inventory; "C" for equipment that has been Upgraded or refurbished; "D" for equipment that has been Disposed of and is to be removed from inventory.
• A summary inventory update report will be created that totals number of inventory records added, changed and deleted broken out by equipment type. The report will be sorted by branch and will start on a new page for each change of branch.
• A detail inventory report will be available to the branches with the detail of inventory records updated.
• From the Names of Possible Functions listed identify the transactional functions for the Assets Tracking application. Select N/A if a Name of Possible Functions does not apply.

Identify the functions used.

ALERT SYSTEM - ALERT NOTIFICATION

• Brokers use the Alert Profile screen to maintain the Alert Profile logical file. They can Add, Change, Delete and View alert information.
• Brokers also maintain a list of many securities to monitor. The securities information is considered to be part of the Alert Profile.
• The Alert Profile record is not considered complete until at least one security has been entered. The account number, alert contact name, alert phone number, and security id are required fields. The user is required to enter at least one of the remaining fields: low price threshold, high price threshold, and high volume threshold, they may enter values in all three.
• When an Alert Profile record is Added a validation is performed on the account number against the Account Master logical file and a validation on the securities against the Securities logical file.
• When Alert Profile records are Changed a validation is on the account number against the Account Master. All fields can be modified.
• No validations are performed for the Alert Profile View.
• When an Alert Profile record is Deleted the user must enter the account number, alert contact name, alert phone number. The account number is validated against the Account Master.
• Error messages are displayed whenever validations fail

ITEM CHECK-OUT SCREEN

• Library employees use the Item Check-Out screen when a member is ready check out the book(s) and/or magazine(s) he wishes to borrow. The library employee enters the member id number, and when the employee exits the member id attribute, if the member id is valid, the member name is retrieved from the Member Information logical file and displayed in the member name attribute. The library employee enters the item type (b for book, m for magazine) and the item code; the item title is retrieved from the Book Information logical file and displayed in the item title attribute. The library employee then enters the lending date and the due date, and presses the Add button. The information is stored in the Check-Out logical file.
• Library employees use the Item Check-Out screen to update the due date of a book or magazine if a member requests additional lending time. The employee enters the member id number, and when the employee exits the member id attribute, if the member id is valid, the member name is retrieved from the Member Information logical file and displayed in the member name attribute, the library employee enters the item type (b for book, m for magazine) and the item code; the item title is retrieved from the Book Information logical file and displayed in the item title attribute and the lending date and due date are retrieved from the Check-Out logical file. The library employee then updates the due date, and presses the Update button. The new due date is stored in the Check-Out logical file.
• The head librarian receives two reports from the Library Check-Out application. The first report is the Overdue Report which is a list of overdue items categorized into < 30 days overdue, 30 - 90 days overdue and > 90 days overdue.
• The second report is the Low Usage Report that calculates which fiction books have not been checked out in the last 24 months and lists the title of those books. This report is run on demand. A High Usage Report with the number of times an item has been checked out has been put on hold and will not be released.
• A proposed Member Check-Out Report with a list of books checked-out and recommended titles will not be developed until privacy issues have been resolved.
• From the Names of Possible Functions listed identify the transactional functions for the current Library Check-Out application. Select N/A if a Name of Possible Function does not apply.

The Procurement application user requires the ability to control how and when reports are printed. The following list shows the specific user requirements for generating reports:

• Display a list of reports that are available to be printed.
• The user selects a report to be printed. If report control information exists for the requested report, the report control is displayed from the Report Control logical file.
• If report control information has not been specified for the requested report, the user may add the following report controls:

• uk.co.certification.simulator.questionpool.PList@21015f00

• If report control information exists for the requested report, the user may update or delete the report controls.

Identify the functions used:

An enhancement project involves both the Human Resource (HR) application and the Mail Distribution (MD) application.

The HR application maintains all data elements in the Employee logical file. The users of the HR application require validations for employee pay grade and employee job title in the Employee logical file. The employee pay grade will be validated against the Pay Grade logical file which is maintained by the Finance application. The employee job title will be validated against the Job Title logical file which is maintained by the Compensation application.

The MD application maintains two data elements in the Employee logical file. The users of the MD application require additional validations for building and floor within the employee mailing address. The building and floor will be validated against the Building logical file which is a new file being developed by this project.

The users will use the MD application to maintain the Building logical file. The users of the MD application also maintain building and floor in the Employee logical file.

From the Names of Possible Functions listed identify the data functions for the HR application and the MD application. Select N/A if a Name of Possible Function does not apply.

Identify the data functions used:

TAX APPLICATION

For the TAX application the user required the migration of existing taxpayer information (name, tax identification number, location name) to the TAX application.
