  Change Request: Process Improvement

  
  

  Description:

  Currently our medical supply warehouse uses the DPAS Warehouse unit issue request process to create pick tickets after selecting the details of our stock (expiration and lot numbers are heavily used on all of our items). The asset selection allows for us to monitor and select the next expiring assets (i.e. FIFO); however the picking ticket generated does not list the expiration or lot numbers for warehouse personnel to select the assets that need to be issued. Propose that the pick tickets display both expiration and lot numbers for items that have them.

   

  Recommended:

  Propose that the pick tickets display both expiration and lot numbers for items that have them. The asset selection process has that level of detail and thus should put a hard allocation against the assets to keep them from moving, so the pick ticket should be detailed to ensure those assets are pulled correctly when using manual processes in DPAS.

   

  Mission Critical:

  Local SOPs.

   

  Benefits:

  Just good business practice to keep inventory straight and practice "First in, first out" FIFO to ensure no stock loss due to expiration.

   

  Frequency: Daily

   

  Users:

  Should affect anyone using items that have expiration with the unit issue process.
