2.2 Accounts
The Account is the main identifier of EI data. Each Account represents the operating facility
within the COMPASS. The Account simply represents a plant that is reporting EI data to the
regulatory agency.
An Account can be either an actual agency-identified
Account Number
, or a sample account such
as the accounts that are delivered with the system for instruction purposes. It can also be a
fictitious account created by the user to store information of particular interest, such as a
“second” copy of the agency download data.
Accounts may be renamed during the Import procedure, thereby facilitating the insertion of
Accounts with the same Account Number into the database under a fictitious identifier.
