Computerised shipping documents

Fremantle Fisheries(FF) operates a fleet of fishing boat out of three ports in Western Australia Fremantle, Bunbury and Geraldton. Each port has its own fishing fleet and all seafoodcaught is sold through the Fish Marketing Board, a board established by the stategovernment. The accounting procedures for all sales to the Board are centralised and handledby a computerised accounting system at FFs head office in Perth. The majority of thecompanys employees work on the fishing boats, and are paid bonuses from head office,depending on the volume, type and quality of seafood caught. This means that head officemust be able to identify the source of each shipment sent to the Board.John Dorey, who was originally based in Geraldton and handled the accounting procedures atGeraldton before computerisation, is now based in Perth as manager of the computerisedaccounting system. His father and two sisters are still based in Geraldton and work for thecompany on the fishing boats, as do many friends of the family.Shipping documents are sent to the Perth head office from all three ports, and the sources ofthe shipment is clearly marked in the top right-head corner of the documents. Occasionally,however, details of the source are missing, and it is not easy to trace the source quickly.Dorey, in his capacity as manager of the system, is keen to keep the system fully operationaland up to date, and has instructed the keyboard operator to insert any one of three Geraldtonsource codes, namely those of his father and two sisters, whenever the source code is missingfrom the shipping document. The keyboard operator knows that the codes given are thosebelonging to his bosss family, but nevertheless complies with the request for fear that non-compliance may lead to his own dismissal.Required
