  Change Request: 

   

  Process Improvement

   

  Description:

  Mass Appropriation Update only supports moving to fund codes that follow the same interface system code.  Most Accounting systems require cost elements that do not lend them to an automated transition from one accounting system to another.  The AY (no automated interface) and  AG (GAFS-R) accounting interface does not require cost elements, thus the Mass Appropriation Update process should permit the  user to update the interface system code when the from or to is either AY or AG.

   

  Recommended:

  Update the Mass Appropriation Update program to allow users to update DPAS supported accounting interfaces to  accounting interface cd of "AY" (No Automated Interface) or AG (GAFS-R) .

   

  Mission Critical:
  Mass Appropriation Update currently exists but is limited by its current design. This change will enable users to perform the update without customer support / scripting by the DPAS support teams.

   

  Benefits:

  Users can handle mass appropriation updates that involve AY or AG without having to request scripts that have the possibility of handling thousands of transactions.  The functionality is already largely in the program, it just needs improved to support different accounting interfaces.

   

  Frequency: 

  Daily

   

  Users:

  Many users use this program and can use it at any time.  The job runs daily through queued appropriation updates.

The DPAS Program Management Office is proud to announce the name of the system will undergo a re-branding. The system that you have used for many years has grown into more than a Property Accountability system and is now being used by organizations outside of the Defense Department. To account for all capabilities within the system, the team has renamed the system to the Enterprise Logistics Management System (ELMS). Please bear with us as we update the support webpage and the training material over time. The update to the system is scheduled to be completed by Release 2025.2.4, which will deploy to the Production environment on 16 May.
