The new application also eliminates the need for multiple screens found in the previous version.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis new software coincides with a policy change to move the DAF away from reliance on the centralized Military Personnel Flights to file approved and signed decorations. Trust and responsibility is placed back with the approval authority and the record now updates automatically upon signature,\u201d said Deputy Chief of Staff for Manpower, Personnel and Services <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.af.mil\/About-Us\/Biographies\/Display\/Article\/1955079\/caroline-m-miller\/\" target=\"_blank\">Lt. Gen. Caroline Miller<\/a><\/strong>. \u201cOur goal is to make the system more intuitive and create a smoother process for users.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Airmen and Guardians in operational units met with DAF decorations experts to shape the new system and were the catalyst for the policy changes. Quality review checks previously performed by MPF members are now automated, freeing personnel to focus on strengthening their recognition programs.<\/p>\n<p>Users and approval authorities will see the following changes:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Like myEval, users choose who they route to and have a dashboard to track decorations<br \/>\u2022 Nominators name the approval authority when drafting the nomination<br \/>\u2022 Decorations are fully editable until signed<br \/>\u2022 Users may add comments and routing notes<br \/>\u2022 Upon approval, the decoration goes directly into the record<br \/>\u2022 MPFs no longer review each transaction and strengthen their advisory and audit role<br \/>\u2022 Like myEval, only HR Technician roles for the CSS and MPF are now needed<\/p>\n<p>The following decorations will be processed in myDecs Reimagined. Others may be added in the future:<\/p>\n<p>Air and Space Meritorious Service Medal<br \/>Air and Space Commendation Medal<br \/>Air and Space Achievement Medal<br \/>Aerial Achievement Medal<br \/>Combat Readiness Medal<br \/>Military Outstanding Volunteer Service Medal<\/p>\n<p>Airmen and Guardians should visit myDecs Reimagined by going to <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/myfss.us.af.mil\/USAFCommunity\/s\/login\/\" target=\"_blank\">myFSS<\/a><\/strong> and selecting \u201cmyDecs\u201d for more information.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ast-split ntext breakout \">\n<div class=\"item\">\n<div class=\"body\">\n<section class=\"ast-brandedhr\">\n<div class=\"ast-brandedhr-line\">\n<p>                <title>U.S. Air Force Logo<\/title><\/p><\/div>\n<\/section><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ARLINGTON, Va.
