01282 - Add OPTAR History Remarks and History Records Drawer in ICP/MM Module

Module: Accounting
What Changed:
 
 
 
 
In the Materiel Management/Inventory Control Point (ICP) module, a History Remarks text field exists on the OPTAR Add and Update drawers for users to record one-time, non-editable remarks about the record being added or updated. Also an Operating Target History button is available on the main search results grid header that opens a drawer to display the record's entire history from most recent to oldest.

The Originating Problem:
There was no view of the Operating Target record history within the current screens. 

Impact:
A 'History Remarks' field is available on the Add and Edit drawers on the Operating Target screen in the ICP/MM module. Adding the 'History Remarks' field, along with the 'Operating Target History' drawer, allows users to view the history of the current OPTAR records. 

01964 - Organization Collections - Update Collection Name for Edited ICP Name

Module: Accounting
What Changed:
 
In the Inventory Control Point/Materiel Management (ICP/MM) Module, Organization Collections are, by default, associated to the ICP name. When an ICP name is updated, the associated Organization Collection name is also updated to match the new ICP name unless the Collection name already differed from the ICP name. 

The Originating Problem:
When an ICP name is updated, the associated Organization Collection name did not automatically update to match the ICP name when the Organization Collection name matched the ICP name.

Impact:
When an ICP name is updated, the associated Organization Collection name is now updated at the same time to match the ICP name.

In addition, existing assets and related financial data are converted to the new interface code. Edit checks and validations for processes such as Asset Receiving/Update/Transfer have been modified to check for FAMIS-GF business rules.
 
The Originating Problem:
DISA needs a new FAMIS General Fund interface system and needs to convert certain existing assets from the Defense Accounting Interface (DAI) to FAMIS-GF.

Impact:
Interface System Code 'AC' is now available for use when creating appropriation fund codes in DISA. In addition, existing assets and their related financial data have been converted to use the new 'AC' Interface System Code.  Edit checks and validations for processes such as Asset Receiving/Update/Transfer are in place to check for FAMIS-GF business rules.
