JPA access when husbands away.

127 Posts
OK,
hubby is forever out of the country for months on end, daughter is boarding school.
Hubby had to sign forms stating i have full authority on JPA whilst he's out of country to do things like the school bills claim and flights each term.
Now they have decided i'm not allowed, therefore we have been slapped with late charges for not submitting school fees on system which they wont allow me to and my daughter has sometimes been stranded and us footing bills because her flights have not been booked.
best one is, to put school bill on JPA for authorisation or to apply for school flights when my hubby is in afghan he has to find a terminal,do paperwork, print off the approved forms which hold booking numbers, send it to me to then go and put into BHQ. Please am i the only one that thinks this is taking the !!!!.

You can't be the first person this has happened to though, try talking to your husbands RAO or RAWO, they should sort it if you go straight to them (unless they're on tour too)
Spoke again to sfa about this and they said they will sort something out but not holding my breath because of this yet again i have a £600 late fee from school because school allowance not paid on time but the army try and blame us for it.
You can login to JPA through any computer account on that network, so if you went with a friend and found a lonely computer im sure they could log you on, and assist you with the JPA process. In our HR Section, they have computers ready to logon to JPA with a generic computer username & password. These computers are just restricted to JPA only.
This probably is very much against all the computer rules, but im times of need you do what you can.
