• Description
  Description:

  Currently there is no Stock Item Type Cd = 'L - Local' in the DPAS Catalog. Local Stock Numbers are currently cataloged as Type 'J - MCN', and for a Local Stock Number, the Type J business rules are ignored, allowing users to enter a stock number with a more flexible format. But they are still categorized as a Type J – MCN stock item type. DPAS users have expressed a desire for a true 'Local' Stock Item Type Code that can be used to format stock numbers to meet their individual agency business needs. Adding Type ‘L – Local’ stock

   

  Recommended:

  Add a Type ‘L – Local’ stock item type code that will appear as an option during stock number add process and stock number searches where applicable in DPAS (including browse modals and search criteria); Convert existing non-conforming Type J stock numbers to Type L stock numbers in DPAS catalog Stock Nbr table. Establish a single Regx value in all catalogs for the L type Stock Nbr at time of startup allowing agencies to request a change in the Regx value when they are ready.

   

  Mission Critical:

   

  The DLMS change in DPAS Release 2022 that enables DPAS to support the CAGE/Mfr Part Nbr type Stock Nbrs in excess of 15 characters also includes the capability to support the Local Stock Nbr type.

   

   

  Benefits:

  The change enables the processing Stock Nbr data using defined DoD methodologies for defining the the different types of Stock Nbrs. As a result of this change it should improve user accuracy in categorization and formatting of the different DoD stock number types.

   

  Users:

  This change will primarily impact users who are involved with cataloging.
