The Grain Inventory Accounting System (GIAS) is a computer based system of grain accounting that replaces hard copy elevator receipt documentation. Prior to the development of GIAS, grain accounting was a paper-based system which relied on the terminal elevator receipt document to be representative of the stocks in store at a terminal. As the status of the grain changed (i.e., grade changes, blending, drying, etc.), like changes had to be made to the document(s) representing that grain. There was also the possibility of losing the hard copy document. Under GIAS, all transactions are done electronically; there are no lost documents; inventory records are manipulated as soon as the physical stocks of grain are manipulated and the elevator operators are able to keep their in-house accounting current. 2, record 1, English, - Grain%20Inventory%20Accounting%20System

Le Système de comptabilisation des stocks de grains (GIAS) est un système informatisé de comptabilisation des stocks de grains qui remplace le récépissé sur papier. Avant le développement du système GIAS, la comptabilisation des stocks se faisait sur papier et le récépissé de silo terminal devait être représentatif des stocks en magasin au silo terminal. À mesure que l'on apportait des changements au grain (p. ex. changements du grade, mélange, séchage, etc.), il fallait apporter les mêmes changements au(x) document(s) représentant ce grain. Il existait toujours la possibilité de perdre la copie sur papier. Selon le système GIAS, toutes les transactions se font électroniquement; on ne peut perdre de documents; les dossiers des stocks sont manipulés dès que les stocks physiques de grains le sont; les exploitants de silos sont en mesure de tenir leur comptabilisation interne à jour. De plus, les exploitants de silos agréés peuvent respecter les délais d'exécution précisés dans la Loi sur les grains du Canada et son Règlement qui régissent l'enregistrement et l'annulation de documents ou des dossiers électroniques ou les deux. 2, record 1, French, - Syst%C3%A8me%20de%20comptabilisation%20des%20stocks%20de%20grains
