Description:

When setting up a recurring Maintenance Schedule as every X days the system only allows for up to three digits (1-999), however some users have inspections over 999 days. By policy, inspections based on months or years may be completed any time in the month due. Inspections based on # of days must be completed by the specific due date. The system allows a # of years scheduling method, but not a # of days method for intervals beyond 999 days.

 

Recommended:

Update the system to allow up to four digits i.e (1-9999)

 

Mission Critical:

Mandated. Inspection requirements are mandated by the applicable Technical Data.

Description:

DPAS does not incorporate inspection checklists into Sub Work Orders when the Work Plan Type Cd is set as INSP-Quality Control Inspection. Currently Inspection checklists documents completion is on PDF outside DPAS and then added to the work order using the attachment function. User must view checklists under the work order's attachment tab and does not link directly to the associated work plans. Additionally, DPAS does not allow multiple sub work orders with Work Plan Type Cd of INSP-Quality Control Inspection.

 

Recommended:

Add checklist tab to the sub work order when using an INSP-Quality Control Inspection work plan. Enables user to accomplish and document the checklist within DPAS, linking directly to the work plan. Additionally, create a function when adding the work plan allowing user to program checklist items needed for the work plan. Finally, enable user to add multiple sub work orders with inspections under one work order.

 

Mission Critical:

Critical. There are several inspections mandated by Air Force Instructions, DoD Instructions, and other federal regulations. Completing these checklist ensures safety and serviceability of the asset and critical to mission readiness.

 

Benefits:

This change reduces task time by eliminating the need to bring an external documents into DPAS and attaching document to a maintenance record. Improves data accuracy by directly linking the checklist to the work plan and eliminates human interpretation where the checklist applies.

 

Users:

This enhancement will affect all M&U users, USAF and other DoD agencies.

Description:

In the Master Data, Maintenance Management Assign function, the Maint Activity/Owning UIC listing is not in alphabetical order. In addition, Maintenance Activities outside of your site are displayed, creating confusion and mistaken Maintenance Management Assignments. Many Maintenance Activities across Site IDs have very similar names. For example, Eglin AFB and Eglin AFB, FL are separate Maintenance Activities.

 

Recommended:

List Maintenance Activities in alphabetical order and only display Maintenance Activities within the Site ID you're signed in under.

 

Mission Critical:

No

 

Benefits:

Reduces time and improves accuracy. Reduces likelihood of incorrect UIC/Maintenance Activity/Maintenance Group ID associations.

Recommended:

 

Allow for Stock Number(s) in WM/ICP without associations to any active, outstanding, or pending inventory transactions to be soft deleted by the user. Allow for Stock Number(s) with completed or historical inventory transactions associated to the stock number to be soft deleted by the user.

 

 

Mission Critical:

The change is considered critical as there is a need for the user to remove Stock Numbers that are no longer active.

 

Benefits:

Users will be able to easily remove stock numbers from their catalogs, as well as resurrect them, while maintaining history and eliminate the need for users to open a Help desk Data Fix request to delete the stock number and wait for the fix to be processed.

 

Users:

Description:

The current program logic on the FSM Auth On-hand report does not take into consideration stock numbers that are a 'related NSN'. This is causing the FSM Auth On-hand product to either identify these related NSNs as excess and the Master NSN as shortages when in fact these NSNs can be used in lieu of the other.

 

Recommended:

Include the 'Related NSN' as an approved replacement on the FSM Auth On-hand report. Additionally within the Asset Management Inquiry, include I&S and 'Related NSN' as part of the data pull

These Stock Nbrs should not be included in this report as the organization has identified them as not applicable or is no longer used by that entity.

 

Recommended:

reports after Reportable Commodity Type and before Unit Price. 2) Add Stock Item Replenishment Start Dt, Stock Item Replenishment End Dt to the Warehouse Tier report after the Stock Nbr Replenishment End Dt and before Unit Price. 3). When determining which Stock Nbrs to include in the report, only include those Stock Nbrs where the Stock Nbr Replenishment Start Dt is Report Dt. When no Replenishment Start or End Dt values have been entered, they are considered in range. 4) In addition to using the above determination, the Stock Item Replenishment Start and End Dates must be taken into consideration. Only include the stock nbrs that have an active Stock Item record where the Stock Item Replenishment Start Dt is Report Dt or when the warehouse has 1) On Hand, 2) Returnable Issued, and 3) On Order quantities. No Stock Item Replenishment Start or End Dt values are considered in range. 5) When the Stock Nbr replenishment Start and End dates are in range, and the Warehouse Stock Item Replenishment values report dates are not in range, only include: 1) On Hand, 2) Returnable Issued, and 3)On Order quantities in the forecast report that is run at a tier higher than warehouse.

 

Mission Critical:

NSWC would like to use this report to identify their potential buys, and believes the report would be more useful if the Stock Nbrs that are not applicable to acquisition are not included.
