  Change Request: Process Improvement

  
  

  Description:

  Problem:  PA currently links asset to Auth LIN/TAMCN Master Key and does not identify which asset belongs to which Authorization Document Number.  Assigning asset to Authorization Document Number only links asset to Auth LIN/TAMCN Master Key which connects to multiple Authorization Document Numbers.  Users must manually edit Authorization Document Number within Obligation Doc Number text field resulting with typing errors or copy/pasting inconsistencies within field(s).  This causes enterprise data integrity issues.  (Please reference Word Document attachment for specific details)
  

   

  Proposed Improvement:  Add new column (auth_lin_tamcn_detail_ky) to Asset Master table.  This allows the ability to tie asset directly to Authorization Document Number and alleviates the grouping of Authorization Doc Numbers

   

  Recommended:

  Suggested solutions:
  

  1) Develop an Obligation Document Number drop-down list of available Document Numbers for Authorization LIN/TAMCN Master Key

  2) Create a search results screen with Authorization Document Numbers for users to select and populate a new Authorization LIN/TAMCN Detail Key ID Field on the Asset Master

  3) Introduce a search field within Obligation Document Number text field for Authorization Document Numbers

  Benefits:

  1) Allows accurate asset accountability improving data integrity
  

  2) Solves asset grouping within Authorization Document Numbers

  3) Solves Unit Type Code mapping issues
