Cleaning Operations
Foreign Trade Section (FTS) under National Accounting Wing collects CD from NBR on monthly basis. Then that CD is sent to Computer Wing of BBS for rearranging, processing, tabulating etc. After completion of the work, Cofriputer Wing puts back the tabulation sheets to FTS for the work of correction, compilation and editing. Then FTS sends those sheets back to the Computer Wing for reposting the corrected entries. The Computer Wing entries the corrected figures and print out a copy for further checking.After final checking, Computer Wing is requested to print the final tables.
After receiving the shipping bills from Mongla, entries are made in the control register and the bills are sorted out according to the date and type of trade. Then, the documents are bound in the form of a book which is termed as batch consisting of 50-60 bills. Each batch has a different Bach Control Sheet that virtually represents the summary of the batch. The batches are distributed among the coders for coding the basic required information such as commodity specification by type, quantity of each commodity Re-export is included after clarance from customs and falls under category (iii) and (iv) mentioned above.
