  Description
  We use the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Electronic Turn In Document (ETID's) program for processing excess, in conjunction with DPAS Disposition module for accountability/budget. Each program has a separate document register which are not compatible. This dual document number assignment affects hundreds of excess documents each month.   

  Recommended
  Request the ability to enter a manual document number in the Disposition process.  If this data field is left blank, then it auto-populates in exactly the same manner as DPAS Unit Issue, MILSTRIP, Transfer from External etc... This would give us the flexibility to process both internal and external items identified as excess.

  Mission Critical
  No, but it would allow us to track excess property from when it's first initiated at the customer level, through our excess processing center, to final disposal at DRMO with positive 100% tracking.  In other words, we would obtain excess cradle to grave accountability using one document number generated at the beginning of the turn in process.

  Benefits
  This change would eliminate the need to cross reference the two systems document registers, saving time and confusion when corresponding with an incoming customer and/or DRMO process request.

  Users
  At this time we are the only USACE warehouse using DPAS, so yes it affects all.
