Section 2 - Main Access Levels

There are three levels of access in DPAS. Understanding these levels will ensure the proper access is granted.

1. Program - top level of access. Users at this level have access to assets, requisitions, and contracts throughout the entire Materiel Mgmt Program. This level is only available for Standard user types at the Inquiry level.
2. Division - users at this level can manage all assets, requisitions, and contracts for the ICPs under their specific Division.
3. ICP - lowest level of access. Access privileges are restricted to the ICP specified on the form.

Once you have an understanding of the access tier levels, you can assign role(s) to the level needed.

Select the Main Access level for "Update & Inquiry" from the drop-down menu provided. 

Section 2.2 - Assignment

Based on the Main Access Level selected, the corresponding Assignment information should be completed. (Example: If selecting Division level access, then provide which Division. If selecting ICP level access, then provide which Division and which ICP. If Program level access is selected, when you click outside the box, you will see the “All” box checked for Division and ICP).
