Narrative:

This problem is a daily occurrence. Aircraft are routinely handed off to the wrong sector by automation. This problem is considered a 'normal procedure' when working south departure radar and a satellite arrival is attempting to enter the airspace from the center. The person working the south departure radar must redirect the handoff to the appropriate sector. During busy periods, this extra duty is unnecessary. To fix the problem, I believe we need a 'patch' in the ARTS to direct the satellite arrs to the appropriate sector.

Title: CVG CTLR EXPRESSED FRUSTRATION REGARDING ARTS HDOF SOFTWARE LIMITATIONS.

Narrative: THIS PROB IS A DAILY OCCURRENCE. ACFT ARE ROUTINELY HANDED OFF TO THE WRONG SECTOR BY AUTOMATION. THIS PROB IS CONSIDERED A 'NORMAL PROC' WHEN WORKING S DEP RADAR AND A SATELLITE ARRIVAL IS ATTEMPTING TO ENTER THE AIRSPACE FROM THE CTR. THE PERSON WORKING THE S DEP RADAR MUST REDIRECT THE HDOF TO THE APPROPRIATE SECTOR. DURING BUSY PERIODS, THIS EXTRA DUTY IS UNNECESSARY. TO FIX THE PROB, I BELIEVE WE NEED A 'PATCH' IN THE ARTS TO DIRECT THE SATELLITE ARRS TO THE APPROPRIATE SECTOR.
