(5) Transfers. A Transfer report is needed each time equipment needing a DA Form 2408–9 is transferred by
owning UICs as shown below (fig 5–9).
(a) After a reportable item is accepted into the Army inventory, and the item is transferred between owning UICs, a
DA Form 2408–9 must be prepared and submitted by both the losing organization (report code 1) and the gaining
organization (report code 2). Transportation activities, ports, and agencies involved in the shipment are not to be
considered “owning UICs” but shipping activities ensure a copy of the transfer report is protected and on the
equipment.
(b) A Transfer Report is NOT sent when the item is shipped or received on a loan basis. An item in installation
supply that is marked for issue within 7 days is not reported. Transfer Reports are not needed as long as equipment
stays on the unit property book or supply account, so a report is not needed when equipment is transferred within the
same UIC or sent to a maintenance facility and returned to the user and no property book transfer is involved.
(c) When a unit is redesignated and/or the UIC of a unit changes, a letter is sent to the Commander, LOGSA,
ATTN: AMXLS–RRA, Redstone Arsenal, AL 35898–7466 or e-mail is sent to tedb@logsa.army.mil. Both the old and
the new UIC are included. The letter or e-mail acts as a Transfer Report for all equipment. The old UIC on the logbook
copy of DA Form 2408–9 is lined through and the new UIC written above it.
(d) When an item is received that is to be entered into use (service) for the first time, the end item and major
components are checked for a label stating that a warranty applies. If a warranty appears to apply, the Control Copy of
the Received from Transfer Report is sent to the supporting WARCO. The WARCO adds the in-service date to the
Remarks block of the form and forwards the form as directed by the particular warranty TB. If the TB has no
instruction, the form is discarded.
(e) Table 5–4 is used to reduce required data for transmission to LOGSA.
