  Description
  SAF/FM is constraining the CICP go-live dates in DPAS to the first day of a new quarter.  This places pressure on the CICPs, the GFM-A team and the DPAS implementation team into these four days each year.  In consultation with our DPAS support team, we have proposed establishing a transaction pilot period for each new ICP before DPAS enables the financial reporting to GAFS-R.  Currently, the DPAS reporting lever to GAFS-R is located at the Logistics Program level.  We propose lowering that reporting lever to the ICP level in DPAS.  This will enable us to implement new CICPs on any date without impacting financial reporting.  In addition, the GFM-A team needs the ability to change the beginning and ending dates on the reports in the ICP module (CFO Report, OM&S Trial Balance and Accounting Detail Report) to allow users to pull historical data including transactions for audits.

  Recommended
  The recommended solution is to move the GAFS-R reporting level in the ICP module from the Logistics Program level to the ICP level. ICP Officers within DPAS should be provided an interface that would allow them to turn the GAFS-R Reporting on or off for each ICP under their Logistics Program.  Remove the block from the beginning dates and ending dates from the financial reports in the ICP Module.

  Mission Critical
  This is critical to the implementation of the 100 AF CICPs; this removes constraints on all teams supporting the CICP implementations in DPAS.  Allows programs to provide transaction sets to auditors.

  Benefits
  This provides the ability to review CICP transactions for accuracy prior to sending financial data to GAFS-R.  It further provides the opportunity to correct any errors in the transactions.  Provides ability to provide transaction sets for reconciliation and audits.
