Automation of Reports and Consolidated Orders
System
Published on an as-needed basis for ARCOS
registrants
This bulletin has been prepared by the Drug Enforcement
Administration (DEA), Office of Diversion Control, ARCOS Unit, to
assist participating ARCOS registrants with the preparation and
submission of required DEA controlled substance transaction reports
to ARCOS.
- Change in ARCOS Reporting Media Formats.
Effective January 1, 2009, the ARCOS Unit will no longer accept
ARCOS reports submitted on 3.5" diskettes or compact disks
(CD). Participants currently filing automated reports on CDs or
diskettes must switch to the ARCOS Electronic Data Interchange (EDI)
uploading procedure on the DEA Office of Diversion Control website.
Instructions regarding registration for the automated EDI
reporting upload procedure may be found at the following Internet
website: "http://www.deadiversion.usdoj.gov/arcos/index.html".
We anticipate no changes for participants reporting on the manual
DEA Form-333, "ARCOS TRANSACTION REPORTING", at this time.
Please contact the ARCOS Unit on (202) 307-8600 if you have any
questions regarding this change in ARCOS reporting procedures.
Effective Date: January 1, 2009
Applicability: This bulletin applies to all ARCOS
participants.
