  • Description

    Description
    The PIEE GFP module has the capability for the contractor to unilaterally receipt GFP which results in the government system receiving a 856 PSN Receipt notice. The use of this action would be the conversion of CAP to GFP.  Currently DPAS is not able to process this type of PIEE 856 PSN.

    Recommended
    Modify the WAWF Inbound processes to enable DPAS to create a Pending Receipt for a CAP to GFP conversion.  The Pending Receipt, when processed would place the item under property book control and show it as Out on Loan to the contractor having all of the fields populated as if the government initiated the loan.  This functionality needs to support, UII, Serialized Non-UII, and Bulk assets.

    Mission Critical
    This is considered mission critical as many of the DPAS Customer have contractors who purchase CAP that eventually will be converted to GFP.  When this occurs, DPAS is not able to successfully process these inbound transactions.

    Benefits
    Provides for better control of GFP, streamlines the receipt of CAP to GFP conversion assets by the government whereas the government may not have the information needed to receipt for the materiel easily.  It is recommended that DPAS and PIEE work closely to improve the data contained within the 856 PSN.  Attributes such as Acquisition Date and Acquisition Cost are considered critical data elements that  the file does not currently contain.

    Users
    This is impacting all DPAS users attempting to manage CAP to GFP materiel in DPAS.
