major subsystems.

throughout the Army. This subsystem provides automated inventory control; stock accounting;

and issue, receipt, storage, and financial accounting records for all Class I supplies.

advisor level throughout the Army. This subsystem provides automated reports, inquiries, file

maintenance, and equipment control procedures to monitor dining facility operations.

c. The Dining Facility Operations (DFO) Subsystem is for use in each Army dining

facility. This subsystem provides automated inventory control, receipt processing, menu

planning, headcount procedures, and accounting records for the dining facility operation.

Army Food Management Information System (AFMIS). AFMIS automates Class I supply

functions, installation food advisor management functions, and dining facility operations. The

DFO Subsystem is used to control subsistence and headcount.
