I can't believe I am saying this. I would like a straight up Death By PowerPoint presentation for the new My Board File System just put into place.
Basically, I would like to know what exactly is supposed to be populated in every single box in the data summaries.
Why is my "Command Selection History" blank when I have Company Command annotated in my ORB and OERs. Does that box apply to me, what actually goes in that box. This is just one example.
Yes, I read the MILPER, the POC's for questions do not include a contact for overall general questions about the system. It focuses on questions regarding qualifications for the board (such as schools, readiness, and missing OERs).
I understand My Board File system is a work in progress (it's very obvious)

Yea, my board file closes in Feb. At least what I have in there now would "allow me" to get promoted (I check education and readiness boxes), but things I'd need to support a BZ selection need to get flushed out.
This could be a window of opportuntity relatively speaking if those "more qualified than me" don't appear as such in the Board File due to system problems.

No OPD on this new process? In my day, some kind of team would have circulated the Army to roll-out a sweeping personnel change.

well, glad you provided the FB page. I just poked around, and discovered the ONLY document I can UPLOAD is "Letter to the Board President". I was about to start dumping in DA638's, Memo Of Assumption of Command, etc...........
I have ONE Battle Assemble weekend to get this sorted out

CPT (Join to see) - On the actual board, the members will spend about 30 seconds reviewing your board/record brief, and they will catch what is missing (awards, schools, deployments, command time etc, same problems in every version of the record brief since the olden days).
They'll spend most of their time reading the OERs, noting which ones are in command, and weighting those comments more.

SGM Jeff Mccloud - That sounds in my favor. The new board file has every one of my OER's. The exact things you said they focus on are what is most prominent in the new system. 1) Is the candidate flagged, 2) is the candidate PME qualified? 3) What positions were they in? 4) What was the OER rating 5) What were the rater comments in the OER.
I guess all I can do it clean up the few things missing, and just make sure I "VALIDATE" my board file. 90% chance I don't get BZ, then everything is done for the next year, and make sure next OER is in there and validate the file again.
