User's Guide for the DOE/GSA ADPE (Automated Data Processing Equipment) Inventory Database System at LBL: Version 1.1

摘要

The ADPE Inventory database system was implemented to enable LBL to meet GSA and DOE ADPE inventory reporting requirements and to meet its own ADP management needs. It makes use of the SPIRES database management system, an IBM-compatible PC, YTERM and RELAY software. Extensive use of SPIRES protocols and formats have been made in order to meet stringent GSA data formatting requirements. In so doing, much of the interactive user support has been provided in the user interface so that users need to know very little about technical detail of DOE/GSA reporting requirements and procedures and virtually nothing about SPIRES. This document provides a brief sketch of required tasks and how to accomplish them. It should be used in conjunction with the Automated Data Processing Equipment/Data System Reference Manual, by DOE, which contains descriptions of the constraints on the values of each data element. Those constraints are not repeated in this manual and they may change from time to time. (ERA citation 13:050338)
