Which Customer Area Inventory Management (CAIM) inventory method or methods result in an order for the exact quantities that the user entered into the hand-held terminal (HHT)/personal data assistant (PDA)?
- A.
Order quantity.
- B.
Empty shelf.
- C.
Shelf count.
- D.
All methods.
Correct Answer
A. Order quantity.Explanation
The Order quantity method in Customer Area Inventory Management (CAIM) results in an order for the exact quantities that the user entered into the hand-held terminal (HHT)/personal data assistant (PDA). This means that the system will generate an order based on the specific quantities specified by the user, ensuring that the exact amounts are replenished. The other methods, such as Empty shelf and Shelf count, may not necessarily result in orders for the exact quantities entered by the user.Rate this question:
-
- 22.

Enter the quantity you want to order.
- C.
You do not enter a quantity with this method.
- D.
Count the items on the shelf and enter that number.
Correct Answer
C. You do not enter a quantity with this method.Explanation
In the empty shelf inventory method in Customer Area Inventory Management (CAIM), you do not enter a quantity with this method. This means that when using the hand-held terminal (HHT)/personal data assistant (PDA), you do not need to input any specific quantity. Instead, the method focuses on counting the items on the shelf and updating the inventory accordingly. This allows for accurate tracking of inventory levels without the need to manually enter quantities.Rate this question:

- B.
Modify and resubmit only.
- C.
Modify and resubmit, or delete the request.
- D.
DMLSS does not return disapproved requests to the originator.
Correct Answer

Correct Answer
A. Items with a line item value of $25,000 or less.Explanation
The provisional exception for centrally managed (AAC D) items restricted from local purchase includes items with a line item value of $25,000 or less. This means that any items with a value equal to or below $25,000 can be locally purchased, despite being centrally managed and restricted. The other options listed, such as items for war reserve or war mission, items to support the industrial base, and items for unit deployment, do not fall under this provisional exception.Rate this question:

- B.
Cost savings for such purchases exceed 25 percent of US prices.
- C.
Such action is approved for local purchase by the base dental surgeon.
- D.
Such action is approved by the MTF commander and needed to meet an emergency requirement.
Correct Answer
D. Such action is approved by the MTF commander and needed to meet an emergency requirement.Explanation
When a depot item is on back order and directed by the pharmacist, overseas accounts may locally purchase non-US origin drugs and biologicals. However, this can only be done if such action is approved by the MTF commander and is needed to meet an emergency requirement. This means that in urgent situations where there is a shortage of a specific item, the MTF commander has the authority to approve the purchase of non-US origin drugs and biologicals to ensure that the necessary medical supplies are available.Rate this question:

What is the main point to remember when lifting a bulky item?
- A.
Do not bend your back.
- B.
Bend your back slightly.
- C.
Never lift any item alone.
- D.
Always lift with your arms.
Correct Answer
A. Do not bend your back.Explanation
When lifting a bulky item, it is important to remember not to bend your back. Bending the back can put strain on the spine and increase the risk of injury. Instead, it is recommended to use the legs and hips to lift the item, keeping the back straight and using the strength of the lower body. This technique helps to distribute the weight evenly and reduce the risk of back strain or injury.Rate this question:
-
- 40.
What primary parts of the body should be used to lift bulky items?
- A.
Back and arms.
- B.
Back and legs.
- C.
Upper torso.
- D.
Legs only.
Correct Answer
D. Legs only.Explanation
To lift bulky items, the primary parts of the body that should be used are the legs only. The legs are the strongest and largest muscles in the body, capable of providing the necessary power and stability to lift heavy objects. Lifting with the legs helps to distribute the weight evenly and reduces the strain on the back and arms, minimizing the risk of injury. Using the back and arms alone can lead to back strain or muscle sprains, while relying on the upper torso alone may not provide enough strength or stability.Rate this question:

Which item should not be worn when manually handling materiel?
- A.
Goggles.
- B.
Gloves.
- C.
Eye protective gear.
- D.
Loosely fitting bracelets.
Correct Answer
D. Loosely fitting bracelets.Explanation
Loosely fitting bracelets should not be worn when manually handling material because they can easily get caught in machinery or equipment, causing accidents and injuries. Wearing goggles, gloves, and eye protective gear is essential for protecting the eyes and hands from potential hazards such as flying debris, chemicals, or sharp objects. However, bracelets can pose a risk by getting entangled or snagged, hindering the worker's ability to handle materials safely. Therefore, it is important to remove or avoid wearing loosely fitting bracelets in order to minimize the risk of accidents and ensure a safe working environment.Rate this question:
