Order Data:
In the Order Data tab, enter the following required information (Figure 7):
Required Field

Explanation of Required Field

The fiscal year is the accounting period of the federal government. It begins on October 1 and ends
on September 30 of the next calendar year. Each fiscal year is identified by the calendar year in
Fiscal Year
which it ends and commonly is referred to as “FY.”
The Order Number refers to the Task Order and/or Delivery Number of the Contract. For contracts
without an Order Number, use “0000” as default.
Order Number
The Unit Identification Code (UIC) of the Requiring Activity (RA) that would be performing the
Requiring Activity Unit mission if not for the contractor. This is not necessarily the Contracting Office, Contracting
Administrative Office, or Funding Source.
Identification Code
Command
Direct Non Labor Cost

Total Invoiced Amount

Command of the Requiring Activity that would be performing the mission if not for the contractor.
The Direct Non-Labor Cost field is Supply costs plus Other Direct Costs (ODCs) for the fiscal
year. ODCs are charged directly to the Government and are not included in proposed material
costs, direct labor, indirect costs or any other category of cost. If you did not have a Direct NonLabor Cost you will enter “0”.
The Invoiced Amount is the total dollar amount you charged to the Army Contract/Order during the
fiscal year, including materials, labor, overhead, etc. The total invoiced amount must be greater
than or equal to the sum of the Direct Labor dollars and Direct Non-Labor Cost and should be
reported for the fiscal year when it is accrued (no matter when the invoice is sent out and or paid).
It is the contractors responsibility to enter this data and should only use whole numbers (no
symbols) when entering the information into the website.

To search for a Requiring Activity UIC, first select the green Add New Order button shown in
Figure 8. Next, select the Search for UIC button on the Order Details screen. Fill in as much of
the data fields on the UIC Search function page as possible to narrow down the search, and then
click Search for UIC (Figure 9).
Once you have entered your information in the data fields and clicked Search for UIC, the
application will bring up several possible UICs for you to choose from. Locate your specific UIC
by browsing through the results. Once you have located the correct Unit Identification Code for
your order data, click the blue hyperlink in the UIC column that corresponds with your Code to
confirm your selection (Figure 10). The UIC data cell will automatically be populated with the
UIC you selected (Figure 11).

Note: The Order Data elements should be reviewed by the COR/COTR in charge of
overseeing the contract. The COR/COTR should also edit any incorrect data if
necessary.
