4. Introduction to DTAS (1 of 3)
DTAS is the standard Army system for deployed personnel accountability
The DTAS application is a software package designed to account for military and civilian personnel in a deployed theater by NAME, UNIT, LOCATION, and DATE
DTAS is comprised of three (3) distinct levels or sub-systems and they are:
Mobile System Level (User Level)
Major Command Level ( formerly Theater Level)
Enterprise Level

5. Introduction to DTAS (2 of 3)
DTAS is the “vehicle” to capture what the Commanders and 1SGs know
DTAS resolves the by-name accountability deficiency that currently exists in Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF), Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF) and the Horn of Africa (HOA)
DTAS is the cornerstone of accurate accountability of the deployed force 5

You are the HR Specialist currently assigned to the HHC, 1st Brigade Combat Team, 4th Infantry Division and the unit is preparing to deploy to Iraq. The Adjutant has been briefed by the Brigade Commander to prepare the Deployment Roster and Rear Detachment Personnel Roster. The Adjutant provides you with a list of names of personnel that will be part of the Rear Detachment and will not be deploying. He also hands you a folder with documents that must be processed in eMILPO. The Adjutant informs you that the transactions that you are about to do must reflect on the a clean copy of the AAA-162 so he can provide the copy to the Brigade Commander. He also informs you the Soldiers you have completed the transactions on will not be part of the deployed roster and must be checked off the Extensible Markup Language (XML) File that will be UP-Loaded into DTAS when the unit arrives in Iraq.
