ULLS-S4…
Preparing PBUSE Conversions
ULLS-S4
is now included in the property
book unit supply enhancement (PBUSE) pro-
gram. PBUSE provides close to real time, accu-
rate visibility of your property book account.
The old program only provided snapshots of the
account when it was last updated.
Before you convert your standard property
book system-redesign (SPBS-R) to PBUSE, you
must have the info in your property book vali-
dated. The validation allows PBUSE to start
working for you with the right info, right away.
First, save your property book ALV03 computer
data to ASCII format. When saved the ASCII file must
have a file extension of “.rsm” or “.txt”.
Then go to the Logistics Support Activity (LOGSA)
WebLOG webpage at:
Click on the PBUSE icon in the right column. Login
and enter your password. If you don’t have a Login ID
and password, return to the WebLOG page and fill out
the System Access Request (top center of the screen).
Here’s how to get
your
validation
through the
internet…
man!
I knew this
was coming—guess
I can’t delay…
…but
where
do
I start?

soldier!
Once in PBUSE, click on FILE UPLOAD and enter your installation code, unit
description, name, rank, area code, phone number, and email address. Browse
your computer to find the ASCII file you’ve already prepared listing all your prop-
erty book items.
