  • Description

    Description
    In the Asset Receiving Module, there is no ability to distinguish the type of funding for various Internal Use Software (IUS). This is critical as capitalization thresholds are different for the various types of IUS.
    Currently, the Capitalization threshold for all IUS is $250K. However, the Capitalization threshold for Military Intelligence Program (MIP) and National Intelligence Program (NIP) IUS is $1M. As a result, DPAS will incorrectly capitalize MIP and NIP IUS below the $1M threshold and require the APO to manually change the capitalization code to "N" (Non capital, exceeds threshold) to stop the asset from depreciating.  

    Recommended
    Develop a programmatic process for DPAS to distinguish between the various types of software capital thresholds and to set the capitalization code for capital thresholds at the correct levels.

    Mission Critical
    Mission critical/mandated.  DoD 7000.14-R Vol 4, Ch 27 pg 27-18 states " The current IUS capitalization threshold for all DoD Components is $250,000, except for the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, for which the capitalization threshold is $1 million."

    Benefits
    Ensures that capitalization of IUS is correctly applied per DOD regulation
