PARMELA has been used at CEBAF for numerical modeling of the nuclear physics injector chopping system, a possible FEL laser gun injector, and the rf steering and focusing effects of the standard CEBAF SRF cavities. These applications call for the code to input field data consistently from SUPERFISH, POISSON, and MAFIA, to properly treat a focusing solenoidal lens having an actual field profile either individually or together with its adjacent rf cavity, to deal with the space charge forces, to model the longitudinal phase space matching required for bunching electrons using a phase-compressor chicane, etc. In this paper, we describe in detail these issues of general interest.
