208, Federal Financial Management Improvement Act of 1996; and E.O. 
9397 (SSN) as amended.

Purpose(s):
    Records are used to initiate reimbursements to enable the Defense 
Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS) to distribute payments to DLA 
employees for certain miscellaneous out-of-pocket expenses (training, 
tuition, Permanent Change of Station, etc). Records are also used to 
identify employee-related costs associated with reimbursable orders 
received by DLA and to enable accurate billing of those reimbursable 
orders.
    Records are used to create a general ledger file containing the 
accounts necessary to reflect DLA operational costs. Operations costs 
consist of operating accounts, liability accounts, budgetary accounts, 
and statistical accounts, maintained for the purposes of establishing, 
in summary form, the status of the DLA accounts and to provide an audit 
trail to verify accuracy of reports.
    Records are used by financial management offices to validate and 
accurately record employee-labor operational expenses.
    Records are used to determine DLA civilian payroll budgetary 
requirements.
    Records are used by internal auditors to conduct audits or 
investigations into the DLA accounting and financial management 
process.
    Records are used by the DOD Components who receive accounting and 
financial management support from DLA under an administrative support 
agreement for accounting and financial management purposes.
    Records devoid of personal identifiers are used for extraction or 
compilation of data and reports for management studies and statistical 
analyses for use internally or externally as required by DOD or other 
government agencies.
    Statistical data, with all personal identifiers removed, may be 
used by management for program evaluation, review, or oversight 
purposes.

Routine uses of records maintained in the system, including categories 
of users and the purposes of such uses:
In addition to those disclosures generally permitted under 5 U.S.C. 
552a(b) of the Privacy Act of 1974, these records contained therein may 
specifically be disclosed outside the DOD as a routine use pursuant to 
5 U.S.C. 552a(b)(3) as follows:
    To the Office of Management and Budget for the purposes of 
conducting reviews, audits, or inspections of agency practices.
    The DoD ``Blanket Routine Uses'' apply to this system of records.

Safeguards:

by access profiles to those who require the records in the performance 
of their official duties. All Personally Identifiable Information is 
encrypted with accessibility limited to permitted access profiles. 
Access to personal information is further restricted by the use of 
passwords that are changed periodically.

    General ledger postings are cutoff at the end of the fiscal year 
and are maintained for 6 years and 3 months, and then destroyed.

National Archives and Records Administration has approved the retention 
and disposal of ready to pay files, treated them as permanent).
