CONDUCT YOUR OWN RECORDS CHECK!

Every chaplain candidate should check their records at least once a year to ensure that all your authorized documents are uplaoded properly.  Please use this handout to conduct your own records check.  If something is missing, please email it to the Chaplain Candidate Manager so it can be uploaded into iPerms, your permanent document "warehouse."

 

DATA CORRECTNESS CAMPAIGN

The Army is currently moving from over 50 personnel and finance systems to one system of record, Integrated Pay and Personnel System-Army (IPPS-A)

In preparation for this momentous change, the Army has launched a "Data Correctness" Campaign and is asking everyone to check the records.  If they are not accurate, please be sure to work with your unit personnel to update them!
