Figure 12-3, Listing of Priority Designators
UMMIPS (Uniform Material Movement and Issue Procedures) (Card Columns 60-61)
Combining the assigned F/AD (Force/Activity Designator) and the appropriate UND (Urgency of Need Designator) will enable the requisitioner to determine the appropriate Priority Designator. It should be noted that an assigned F/AD normally limits the requisitioner to choosing from three Priority Designators consistent with the UND. For example, a requisitioner assigned FAD III will normally select Priority Designator 03, 06 or 13 based on the requisitioner's determination as to whether the UND is A, B or C. The following table illustrates the above relationship:
