Locator Information System (LIST)

System Capabilities and Interface

LIST Locater Information System provides Agency personnel offices with locator data (e.g., building code, building abbreviation, building name and address, room number, mail room, office telephone number, home telephone number, and emergency contact information) on Agency employees.

Basic personnel data on new employees (e.g., Department, Agency, Social Security number (SSN), employee name, personnel office identifier (POI), and organizational (Org) structure to the fourth level) is automatically added to LIST Locater Information System from the PPS Payroll/Personnel System database after the accession personnel actions are processed. This data is updated as needed each time the Personnel Input and Edit System (PINE) runs.

The locator data is entered by authorized users after an employee is added to LIST Locater Information System and is updated by these users as needed.

Note: To enter data, a user must have read-and-write access to the LIST Locater Information System database. Read-and-write access allows the user to enter new data, change existing data, query, and generate reports. Users with read-only access can only query and generate reports. Contact your Agency security officer to obtain the appropriate access. Data for a separated employee can be maintained for 90 days or for an indefinite length of time.

LIST Locater Information System data may be viewed on-line (by SSN, employee name, or Org structure code) or in system-generated reports. Two methods are available for reporting LIST Locater Information System data: (1) predefined formatted reports are available through LIST Locater Information System and (2) ad hoc reports are available through the FOCUS Reporting System. For detailed instructions on accessing FOCUS Online FOCUS Ad Hoc Reporting System, see the FOCUS Online FOCUS Ad Hoc Reporting System Reporting System procedures located under the Reporting publications category on the Publications page of the NFC Web site.
