  Description
  The Substitute Stock Number feature does not work across all the functions of the Warehouse module.

  1. Maintenance Issue requests for obsolete items requires cancellation and resubmission.
  2. Cannot replace SKO Components with compatible items and changing the SKO catalog affects all other kits sharing same configuration.

  Recommended
  The Substitute Stock Number function allows the user to issue compatible Stock Numbers during the Maintenance Issue process and replace compatible components within a SKO kit through the Inventory Update process.

  Mission Critical
  The Air Force vehicle community mandates Materiel Control personnel, Warehouse users, via Air Force Instruction 24-302, Vehicle Management to properly charge vehicle parts against vehicle Work Orders.  Additionally, instruction mandates properly inventorying and managing tool kits.

  Benefits
  Improves data accuracy and tool/part accountability while streamlining procedures.

  Users
  This change will streamline Maintenance Issue and SKO management procedures for all Air Force vehicle management Warehouse users
