5 CD containing soft-copy are not being received in CD mailer resulting into number of CDs received as broken in this office.

6 M S Access utility containing only single record in each utility and each CD are being received instead of all the records in one/two utility. For example:- One Head of the office has sent 21 claims alongwith 21 CDs i.e. one CD against each claim.
