UDDS(s)

List the UDDSs for JEMS transactions that the user will need to access. You may enter any component of a UDDS on the JEMS Authorization Form. If a Unit, Division, or Department is listed, it will provide access to all smaller components within the UDDS. For example, requesting access to A02 will include all departments and subdepartments within the A02 division.
