02007 External Catalog Update Validation Enterprise ASA(ALT) New
Change Request: Process Improvement

Description:
DPAS currently receives updates from multiple external cataloging systems to include AESIP(AEMM). When DPAS performs a validation of the data to determine which fields are be updated, there are instances where DPAS does not perform the required update. For example: One of the fields that is sometimes modified is the Management Code (bulk vs. serially managed).  For this to occur within DPAS, e.g. serial to bulk, the user will lose all of the serial nbr / uii data that is present in DPAS.  If it is updated from bulk to serial, then the user must provide serial nbrs (minimum value of data) for the entire asset qty on hand prior to DPAS being able to process the request.  This poses issues when the cataloging system made a mistake with that update.  If it was going from serial to bulk, then when the cataloging system changes it back, the DPAS user would need to provide all of the Srial Nbrs / UIIs.  DPAS doesn't know which assets were issued during the interim. This is no small feat given there could be thousands of assets involved.  BLUF: DPAS needs to maintain synchronization with an external feeder system in a prudent manner.  

 
Recommended:
To enable the user to validate changes in master catalog data prior to implementing the change that could result in a catastrophic mistake caused by the external cataloging system, DPAS should incorporate a process to display the pending update to their catalog and the reasons why DPAS did not systematically process the update upon receipt.  This will enable the DPAS user to see the impact and if they non-concur to consult with their external catalog team to confirm the change is correct.  If there is concurrence, then enable the user to apply the update to all asset records that the catalog is associated to.  If the catalog team was incorrect with change when they processed the update, DPAS user can deny the update.  If correct, then allow for the user to accept the update with DPAS providing the necessary screens to enable the update to occur.  In the end, every update received from an external cataloging system must be able to be processed by DPAS.

 
Mission Critical:
DPAS must be in sync with the authoritative source. In this instance AEMM.
 
Benefits:
Implementing this solution will provide users greater visibility to the updates coming in from the external catalogs and ensure they have a way to correctly align their catalogs to what is defined by the Source of Truth. Ensuring this alignment will increase data integrity when interfacing with other external sources whom also pull data from FEDLOG
 
Frequency: Daily
 
Users:

This would directly affect the stock number catalog which impacts all associated assets in the system.

02005 Backorder Inquiry Warehouse USMC New
Change Request: Process Improvement

Description:
Currently to find out what a member has on Backorder is a very time consuming process.  You have to go back into the members issue to see the item that is backorder when you have over 800 backorder's this could become a full time job.  
 
Recommended:

Issue Nbr
members name
member email
members phone number
UIC
backorder Items (Nomenclature and Qty)
Backorder established date
 
Also within the Backorder Inquiry page, there needs to be functionality to "Delete" existing Backorders that are no longer needed or are created in error.

02004 Equipment Utilization Auto Populate MU DCSA New
Change Request: Process Improvement

Description:
Problem: The current state of WPMAR10R-Equipment Utilization doesn't auto populate from the data input from previous screens.  
 
Recommended:
Solution is to auto populate the data from the previous screens. The TO and FROM dates and previous mileage should auto populate on the Equipment Utilization form.
 
Mission Critical:
The auto population of the form will prevent the dispatcher and operator from inputting the data. This will also keep the form and data clean.
 
Benefits:
The implementation of this process would benefit agencies that have vehicles and people dispersed in various locations and would also speed up the process.

02002 Dispatch Automation MU DCSA New
Change Request: Process Improvement

Description:
Problem: The current state of DPAS M&U lacks the ability to effectively allow the dispatch process to be automated. The agents in the field have to download a scanned dispatch and email to the dispatcher and that takes time that can be better utilized, such as dispatch/vehicle logs, receipts, and maintenance records for vehicles.
 
Recommended:
Solution is to implement an automated dispatch process that will upload dispatch form/vehicle logs to DPAS, with the option to export. This would be called a Driver mobile application which will streamline and simplify the dispatch process. The dispatch will be provided to the recipient via phone/computer. This process would upload all pertinent data such as date, beginning mileage, end mileage and locations. The solution should also allow drivers to scan fuel receipts and maintenance records via the app and attach to dispatch form/vehicle logs.
 
Mission Critical:
The automation of this process would eliminate time and effort of driver's no matter the location. Drivers can see a list of their current trips and record trip start times and odometer readings on the app which will integrate with the Fleet Management Information System (FMIS). Drivers can close dispatches after completion allowing the integrated information to be available in the FMIS. Dispatchers can assign vehicle to an employee as needed and dispatch the vehicles.LMP
 
Benefits:
The implementation of this process would benefit agencies that have vehicles and people dispersed in various locations and would also speed up the process. Drivers can view and complete trips on the go using the app. The app data will automatically integrate with the Fleet Management Information System (FMIS) and eliminate the need for paper dispatch forms and manual data entry.

01997 Remove PA/M&U User Tracking Logic Enterprise Leidos New
Change Request: Process Improvement

Description:
The DPAS Property Accountability (PA) and Maintenance and Utilization (M&U) modules have a database table (DPAS.appsec.user_tracking) and associated stored procedures and application code logic that is used to track user system navigation activity.  However, the table and associated objects have been superseded by other existing features that are implemented system-wide.  The contents of the appsec.user_tracking table are not currently monitored or used in any meaningful way.  Also, this table generates a lot of DML activity in the production environment and appears to be involved in some periods of reduced application performance.  At a minimum, the unnecessary DML activity against this table will generate excessively large transaction log backup files.
 
Recommended:
Drop the DPAS.appsec.user_tracking table and any associated database objects.  Remove the application code logic that called these database objects.

01996 MRO Redesign Warehouse USMC New
Change Request: Process Improvement

Description:
The MRO Process in the WM is not very user friendly. The functionality of the process has not been improved since the original design of this functionality. There are many mandatory steps to get through the process that are not a requirement for the business, to include the Material Movement Plan and Pick Process. There is also no means to allow entire containers to be shipped.
This process is very antiquated and is very rarely used when another process will suffice in getting the gear issued (i.e. Warehouse Transfer or Warehouse Issue)

01995 Add Issue DoDAAC and Mfr Part Data to Inquiries Warehouse New
Change Request: Process Improvement

Description:
Currently there is no "one" way to pull up a complete ICN Inventory or Inventory Activity  with all required data.    Currently have to use multiple reports and inquiries to obtain all contract required data and then blend it into one report.  Items not easily found are MFR Part # (ICN and Activity), Issue DODDAC (Activity).  Inquiries also allows to research multiple days of activity  were the Pre-canned reports only allows for a single day which require multiple reports and then have to compile the reports together.  Additionally, all MFR Part # and Model # is created for each Stock Number.  However there is NO inquiry or report that provides this data in relation to the warehouses activities.  Part # or Model # has to be hand typed into every report to show all data related to the activity. IF DPAS Stores this data, and WebFLIS, can provide this data or it is typed in by the user, why can't we use it for reports and inquiries?  Same applies to the Issuing DODAC.  Its part of the "activity" it should be selectable, not just the Owning DODDAC, which is already known as it is the warehouse creating the report
 
Recommended:
At a minimum the following data should be made available (selectable, not default) to the ICN Inventory or Inventory Activity inquiries:
MFR Part # (ICN and Activity)
Issue DODDAC (Activity)
Additionally the following fields would also be nice to have fro a higher clarification the inquiries
DODDAC Address 1 (Activity)

Change Request: Policy/ Regulatory

Description:
DEDSO is replacing the Distribution Code 111 functionality (Transportation Only Services ADC 316 functionality ) with specific qualifiers within the DLMS 940R and DLMS 945A transaction sets.  DPAS must implement this change to enable transportation requests / responses to be made systematically with DLA's Warehouse Management System (WMS), and Air Force's Cargo Movement Operations System (CMOS).  The ADC states this change will be implmented within 180 days of ADC issuance 12/22/2023.
 
Recommended:
Modify the DLMS Viewers and DLMS inbound/outbound processes to support the new transportation request qualifiers.
 
Mission Critical:
This change must be implemented to ensure communications with DoD's Transportation Management systems remains active.

01990 Additional Trading Partner fields for DAI PA Leidos New
Change Request: Policy regulatory

Description:
DPAS controls display and edits of key accounting fields based upon the accounting interface system that is to receive the data.  The display/edits business rules are developed in concert with the accounting system and are documented in the interface control document.  Today, DAI is not receiving the Trading Partner Department Cd, Trading Partner Basic Symbol or the Trading Partner Subhead which MDA, and agency supported by DAI states are mandatory fields to feed DFAS's DDRS (Defense Departmental Reporting System).   As a result, they must gather this data for each transferred/disposed asset, correct their DDRS submission errors manually.
 
Recommended:
DAI and DPAS are modifying the Interface Control Document interface strategy documents to state these fields are required. This SCR is to document the change to the DPAS system.
 
Mission Critical:
DDRS / Standard Financial Information Structure (SFIS) reporting rules require these fields to be included in the DDRS submission.
