into
some

±nancial management systems that can
help keep your unit in the green.
The course is aimed at of±cers (captains
or above), NCOs (staff sergeant and
above, or sergeant and below with
waiver) and civilians GS-7 and above.
Sister military services may also send
students.

who are deploying within six months
of the next class date. Next slots go to

he Property Book Unit Supply Enhanced (PBUSE) is the Army’s web-based property
accountability tool. Units continually pull important information from its depths. But
sometimes, learning PBUSE and its various complex functions can be tough.
Some of you may not know that PBUSE contains special help features that don’t require
exiting the program.
You can click on Training and review embedded training modules anytime, or if you’re
mid-transaction and not sure of your next step, you can click on the Training button and
access the help function. Your work will be saved so you can return to the spot and finish
the transaction later.
For PBUSE assistance, call DSN: 687-1051, Toll Free: (866) 547-1349, OCONUS: (312) 687-
