Functions

The Atomic Keeper system is based on the Universal Accounting Platform (UAP), which provides basic accounting functions and ensures information security of the entire solution. The platform can be extended with additional modules that deliver specific functionality for a particular special solution.

Universal accounting platform

A configuration is a hierarchical description of all the necessary accounting units and properties associated with radioactive materials, as well as equipment and their relationships between other accounting units. The configuration objects are created in the process of working with the software through operations. The configuration for accounting of accounting units can be adjusted depending on the technological process and other specific features for a particular organization.

Creating customized accounting unit types

Setting permissions to work in the system

Organization of a centralized system for many departments

Custom fields

Customization of validation conditions

Customization of required calculations in fields

The software makes it possible to create and configure separate monitoring screens reflecting the location of monitored objects in relation to room diagrams with the display of the real location of equipment and containers in the nuclear plant premises and the contents of containers and equipment, i.e. nuclear materials (usually in the form of fuel assemblies), CPS AR installed inside fuel assemblies, as well as dummies of fuel assemblies/CPS AR and frames for CPS AR.

Displaying the status of accounting units

Intuitive graphical interface

Work on different types of devices: PCs, tablets, smartphones

The software allows generating reporting documents for submission to national or international regulators, as well as for internal audit and analysis. The system can generate any reports for any date in the past. The universal reporting mechanism implemented in the core of the system is based on the data entered into the system by operations and stores a list of operations on the basis of which each specific report is generated. In case of changes in these operations, the report will be automatically re-generated and compared with its previous version. The system can inform the user if there are any differences.

Certificates

Delivery notes

Acts

Graphs, schemes and cartograms

Automatically filled customizable ledgers

Automatically filled cards

Document generation based on custom templates

Customizable reports

Ability to add modules to expand the set of reports

The software implements the function of editing the last completed operation. The function is used to correct data entered erroneously during the operation. Automated update and validation of entered data is provided. The user is notified in case of changes in the reporting documentation.

Ability to modify data in the past

Automated data updates to maintain consistency in the system

Tracking and validation of data changes made to maintain system integrity and balance

Tracking of reports affected by corrections

The software has a concept of “operation”, i.e., some activity that changes the states of accounting units. Such changes are transactional, and are stored sequentially. The system performs validation of the entered data compared to the existing data. Validation is performed both on the values and on their timestamps. In case the data has changed in the past, the system verifies the validity of newer operations and suggests to correct them. Information entered into the system (deleted from the system) by one user requires validation from another user (two-person rule).

Transactional change of data

Groups of operations

Review the impact of operation on reports and ledgers before data is entered into the system

Ability to cancel operations

Data validation

Creating documents based on the data specified in the operation

Confirmation of data changes (two-person rule)

Automating the execution of operations based on data from external systems

Keeping records of tamper indicating devices being used with integration into operations, as well as validation of operations with accounting units to which tamper indicating devices are installed. The system provides the possibility to limit the actions on the objects with stamps.

Special display of equipment with installed tamper indicating devices

Blocking operations with installed tamper indicating devices

Recording and entering information about physical inventory or inspection in the material balance area containing nuclear material, such as the timing of the physical inventory/inspection, the list of members of the inventory/inspection commission, and the checks performed on the registered accounting units containing nuclear material during the physical inventory/inspection.

Inventory support

Blocking changes to the system

Inspection support

The software provides the user with the ability to select the interface language for data entry. The system allows generating reporting documents in different languages and also supports multilingual interface for regulatory and reference documentation.

Changing the language of the user interface

Document generation in different languages

Catalogs and ledgers in different languages

The “Catalogs” section is a set of thematic catalogs, each of which contains information about certain information parameters. The catalogs fulfil two main functions: firstly, they store and display regulatory and reference documentation (for example, a list); secondly, based on the entries of the catalogs, lists of predefined values are formed, which are used in all other parts of the software while entering data about some event and/or object. This allows not only to reduce the amount of repeatedly entered data, but also minimizes the probability of making errors made by the software user.

The software enables import/export of configuration settings, regulatory and reference documentation, one-way and two-way data replication. The operator can synchronize information with external systems, as well as export summary reports and ledgers.

Import and export of configuration and catalogs

Synchronization of regulatory and reference documentation and user data with external systems

Card export

One-way and two-way data replication

Export of summary information: cards, ledgers and reports
