SAMM Website Improvements

Below is a list of the features incorporated into the updated DSCA SAMM and Policy Memo distribution site. 

 

New Policy Memo List Format:

All Policy memo lists now are take the standardized form of:

Date
Signed

DSCA
Number

SAMM
E-Change

I-Number

Title

-

-

-

-

-

-

-

-

-

-

This new format includes several built in features:

  • Completely "Sortable" tables.  Single click on any of the column names (Date Signed, DSCA Number...) to re-sort the list according to that column.  Click again to sort in reverse direction.

  • Memo Status.  Hover the mouse over the DSCA-Number or Title for a second to view the last known status of that memo.  A small "tool-tip" bubble will appear.

Tool Tip Example

 

Updated E-Change Listing

  • The SAMM E-Change Listing is now in a similar format as the Policy memo Lists.  

  • "Sortable" table and Memo Status are available.

 

Updated Policy Memo PDF's

  • All memos (when allowable) have been run through Adobe Acrobat's Optical Character Recognition (OCR) engine.  This now makes a majority of the text in all memos selectable for copying into MS Word or other applications if needed.

  • Note, not all older memos could be OCR'ed correctly due to the condition of the original PDF files.  Some text may not copy 100% correctly. 

 

As always, the SAMM team will continue working to improve the "look and feel" of this site for our customers.
