A. This chapter provides guidance to the Department of Defense (DoD) Components on the reports that must be produced for submission to the Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS), Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD), Office of Management and Budget (OMB), and the Department of the Treasury. The reports are end products of the accounting process and must be accurate, timely, and provide full disclosure to users.

Those requirements are addressed in Volume 6B of this Regulation. C. Accounting report requirements are incorporated into the concept and detail designs of DoD accounting systems.
