8. DMLSS Items of Interest
Myth Busters:
Myth 1: DMLSS doesn’t have anything to do with MEPRS.
Fact: MEPRS receives DMLSS financial transactions via STARS for supplies, pharmaceuticals and equipment purchased via DMLSS
How are these purchases tracked?
The JONs on each Catalog Item contain the transactions that are sent to STARS

10. DMLSS Items of Interest
Myth 3: Resources Shop doesn’t have anything to do with DMLSS.
Fact: The Customer ID table contains MEPRS code and Expense Center. The Expense Center is the JON. Resource Shop is responsible for ensuring these data are correct. Additionally, each catalog has JONs that must be maintained.
Failure to properly maintain JONs in the catalogs results in supplies being ordered all under one OPTAR/MEPRS code.

2. The capital equipment (depreciable equipment) has the correct MEPRS code., to ensure depreciation is calculated correctly.
