|
Warehouse,Materiel Management |
USMC |
New |
Change Request: Process Improvement
Description:
While conducting testing, MARCORLOGCOM encountered a problem where ELMS did not allow our Depot Remote Storage Activity (RSA) to call for inventory scheduled for induction, from the Inventory Control Point (ICP) using a (DLMS 511R/A0_) as prescribe in Approved DLMS Change (ADC) 1176. Within the (DLMS 511R/A0_) a project code of “3AB” must be entered identifying the transaction as being part of a depot required induction.
Recommended:
1.0 This process starts with one of the Depots, Remote Storage Activities (RSAs), using the Warehouse Module (WM), under the ICP Owning RIC of “MPT”, ELMS shall provide the mechanism for the RSA Depot warehouse to request for an asset for induction into depot repair. This will be accomplished using a (DLMS 511R/A0_), with a signal code of “M”, and a Project Code of “3AB”. The Owning RIC will be specified as “MPT”. This is in accordance with Approved DLMS Change (ADC) 1176.
1.1 ELMS shall route the (511R/A0_) to the Material Management (MM)/ICP module of the specified “Owning RIC”, Inventory Control Point (ICP), Inventory Manager for release or cancellation consideration.
2.0 ELMS shall provide the Inventory Manager (IM), within the Material Management (MM)/ICP module, the ability to view all available asset for the specified National Stock Number (NSN) and Condition Code. The asset viewed will be limited to the available RSA warehouses holding asset under the specified Owning RIC.
2.1 ELMS shall allow the Inventory Manager to reply with an (870S/AE_ Cancelation) or proceed to the Material Redistribution module, within the Material Management (MM)/ ICP module.
2.2 If the Inventory Manager locates a NSN with the requested Condition Code, ELMS shall allow the Inventory Manager to create an MRO using the Material Redistribution function.
2.3 ELMS shall generate an (940R/A2_) Material Release Order (MRO) to be sent to the losing warehouse DoDAAC. Note: It is important to perpetuate the Project Code “3AB”
2.4 ELMS shall send the (527D/DW_) Pre-position Material Receipt (PMR)) transactions to the Depot, Remote Storage Activities (RSAs) that originally sent the induction (511R/A0) with Project Code “3AB”.
3.0 Using ELMS, the losing Warehouse DoDAAC will process the inbound induction MRO using the Warehouse Module (WM). The warehouse person will (pick, pack, and release) the asset requested for induction.
3.1 ELMS shall generate the (870S/AE_ “BA”) and the (856S/AS_) shipping status notifying the Depot, Remote Storage Activities (RSAs) that the asset is on it way. Project Code “3AB” should remain on all documents. The (856S/AS_) will be used as the trigger to reduce the available on hand balance moving the asset in the system to intransit.
3.2 ELMS shall generate the (945A/AR0) and send it back to the ICP, in the Material Management (MM)/ICP module, reporting the asset is now intransit.
4.0 ELMS shall provide the Depot, Remote Storage Activities (RSAs) with a capability to receipt for the induction asset document.
4.1 ELMS shall upon receipt, and quality control verification produce a receipt (527R/D6_).
4.2 ELMS shall gain the asset to the Depot, Remote Storage Activities (RSAs) warehouse DoDAAC.
4.3 ELMS shall post the (527R/D6_) to the historical transactions activity log allowing for associated Key Supporting Documents (KSD) to be added later.
4.4 ELMS shall add the completed receipt’s (527R/D6_) quantity to the “on hand available “in Inventory Manager’s Material Management (MM)/ICP view and completing out the document.

Denial Transaction (DLMS 945AA6_) Narrative
|
Warehouse,Materiel Management |
USMC |
New |
Change Request: Process Improvement
Description:
During the creation of a denial transaction (DLMS 945A/A6_), by the Warehouse Module (WM), no reason code or explanation is given to why the denial was produced. This does not provide the Inventory Manager, working in the Material Management (MM) module enough information as to conduct follow-on action such as back-ordering, filling the requisition from an alternate RSA withing the ICP arena, or canceling the requisition. It also does not appear that there is a means to search for a denial transactions associated to a specific document number.
Recommended:
1.0 ELMS, shall provide an ability for a warehouse person, working the Warehouse Module (WM), to enter a narrative to why a document received a denial during the 940R fulfillment and issue process.
1.1 ELMS shall associate the denial narrative directly to the document which it pertains to.
1.2 ELMS shall make the document number and the denial narrative available to be search for in the Warehouse Module (WM) and the Material Management (MM) module.
2.0 Once the (DLMS 945A/A6_) has been produced by the Warehouse Module (WM) and sent to the Material Management (MM) module with the denial narrative, ELMS shall provide the Inventory Manage with three option to handle the inbound denial.
a. Back Order the customer requisition advancing the suffix code to the next available sequence. In addition, ELMS shall transmit an (870S/AE_) back to the originator of the purchase order. See attached document, "ME Sourcing Handbook 4.10.24.docx", page 30-33 for the approved USMC status codes authorized for use.
b. Cancel the customer requisition, ELMS shall transmit an (870S/AE_ ) back to the originator of the purchase order. See attached document, See attached document, "ME Sourcing Handbook 4.10.24.docx", page 30-33 for the approved USMC status codes authorized for use.
c. ELMS shall provide the Inventory Manager with the ability to attempt to release from another ICP location. This will be done through the customer requisition mode in the Material Management (MM) module.
2.1 ELMS shall provide the Inventory Manager with the ability to select the appropriate backorder or cancellation status using the information provided in the attached document labeled, "ME Sourcing Handbook 4.10.24.docx", page 30-33 for the approved USMC status codes authorized for use.

MCPIC Speed to Count Inventory
|
Warehouse |
USMC |
New |
Change Request: Process Improvement
Description:
MARCORLOGCOM has a requirement to continue what is known as the MCPIC speed-to-count inventory process. This is a key, “MUST HAVE” capability that was previously missed in the WG3 end-to-end evaluation. The process being addressed has been documented in the attached business process map. This process differs from the Consolidate Support Program (CSP) containerization MCPIC support interface. This process used key robotic functionality to optimize the successful execution of an inventory in a significantly reduced time frame. This process has been a key success point in ensuring we stay audit compliant.
Recommended:
To ensure all elements of the inventory process is documented and expectation clearly articulated, the following requirements are submitted. We know that ELMS is currently coded with a robust inventory process that was previously designed to support how the Stock Control System (SCS) required transactional execution. We ask that all steps and requirements be evaluated within ELMS to ensure stakeholder expectations are met.
1.0 During the execution of an inventory, ELMS using the Warehouse Management (WM) module shall provide a mechanism for the warehouse person to select between a MCPIC managed inventory and a manually schedule execution of a location driven cycle count.
Note: A MCPIC managed inventory is one that use automation capability to receive and transfer data automatically. The physical inventory is conducted using robotics.
1.1 After a “MCPIC managed inventory” is selected, ELMS shall conduct a verification to ensure a location cycle count for that same NSN and site has not already been scheduled.
1.2 If a “MCPIC managed inventory” already exists, ELMS shall provide a notification and direct the user to the already scheduled location cycle count to begin execution. Move to 2.3 in the diagram
2.0 ELMS shall allow the warehouse person to generate an inventory cycle count.
2.0.1 ELMS shall auto generate a unique cycle count.
2.1 ELMS shall provide a mechanism to the warehouse person to select the type of MCPIC inventory, (Container, NSN, or Location).
Note: Marine Corps Force Storage Command primary conducts inventory by (site, NSN, and location).
2.2 ELMS shall provide a mechanism to the warehouse person to identify if the inventory is part of a plan cyclic inventory or unscheduled inventory (also known as a spot inventory).
2.3 ELMS shall freeze all transactional movement of the NSNs that has been identified by the location selected.
2.4 ELMS using the agreed upon XML data exchange format, shall generate the required file for transmission to MCPIC.
2.5 ELMS shall transmit, via an API, the XML file staged for transmission.
2.5.1 ELMS shall establish a means to verify the transmission was received in its entirety by MCPIC.
Note: Steps 2.6 – 2.8 is executed by MCPIC
2.9 ELMS shall code the system to accept a reply from MCPIC, via an API where the agreed upon XML formatted is met, that represents the completed results of a cycle inventory count.
2.10 ELMS Shall verify all incoming results from a MCPIC inventory for a specified cycle count. If the balance from the inventory count matches what ELMS has a record for (serial number), then update ELMS with the date inventoried. As part of verification, ELMS will not accept a MCPIC inventory for a date outside the parameter specified in the request to inventory.
3.0 ELMS shall provide a mechanism for the warehouse manager to display the results of the, “MCPIC managed inventory”.
3.0.1 If the results of the inventory indicate an item has been move to a different location, ELMS will conduct a location move to match the MCPIC reported location.
Note: It is, however, the overall responsibility of the Accountable Officer to conduct causative research when there is an imbalance between what is being reported in ELMS and what was reported by MCPIC.
3.1 ELMS shall provide the Accountable Officer with means to accept the inventory results producing the required DLMS 947I (Inventory adjustment transactions D9A/D8A) when applicable.
Note: The Accountable Officer must complete the required Financial Liability Investigation of Property Loss (FLIPL) process as prescribe by MARCORLOGCOM policy prior to submitting any adjustment. This is an administrative item outside of ELMS. 3.2 ELMS shall produce a Money Value Gain and Loss (MVGL) notification statement. Based on the threshold, the Accountable Property Officer (APO) may be allowed to sign vice the Accountable Officer.
3.2.1 ELMS shall provide the Inventory Certifying Officer with the capability to acknowledge that all MVGLs and FLIPLs have been completed prior to certifying the inventory.
3.3 After the Inventory Certifying Officer has, within ELMS completed the certification, ELMS shall process all directed adjustments within the system.
3.4 – 4.0 ELMS, coordinating with MCPIC shall develop an automatic way of reconciling location records to ensure synchronization is occurring and maintained.

Adding Attachments to Multiple Records
|
Warehouse |
NECC |
New |
Change Request: Process Improvement
Description:
We are requesting the implementation of functionality within DPAS Warehouse that allows users to add a single attachment to multiple records simultaneously. Currently, attachments must be added individually to each record, which is highly time-consuming—particularly in scenarios such as uploading identical birth documents to a large number of serialized assets. Enabling batch attachment functionality would greatly enhance efficiency and reduce administrative workload.
Recommended:
Requesting an enhancement to the current functionality that would allow users to apply the same attachment to multiple records within the Selected Inventory tab under the Inventory Update Manager/User function. This improvement would streamline the process of associating common documentation—such as birth documents—with multiple inventory records, thereby increasing efficiency and reducing administrative burden within asset management workflows.
Mission Critical:
In accordance with NECC instruction 5200.45, all supporting documentation must be retained in a centralized repository (DPAS).
Benefits:
Having this capability will reduce the man hours associated with adding Key Support Documentation to all assets within the NECC Logistics Program, streamline the process and enhance efficiency when managing multiple records that require the same documentation.

Change Request: Process Improvement
Description:
We are requesting enhanced functionality within DPAS to allow for the replacement of SKO components or the modification of their condition codes in a more timely and efficient manner. At present, users are limited to two options: either route the SKO through the QA/QC process or fully disassemble the SKO, update condition codes or replace components, and then reassemble it. This process is time-consuming and introduces unnecessary operational delays.
Recommended:
Integrating the existing Manage SKO functionality, currently utilized within the QA/QC process, into the Inventory Update Manager would streamline workflows and reduce processing time for users when performing component swaps or updating condition codes.
Mission Critical:
In accordance with NECC instruction 5200.45, all SKO assemblies need to be updated regularly to maintain inventory accuracy and material readiness status
Benefits:
Implementing this capability will significantly reduce the man-hours required to replace SKO components or update their condition codes, thereby increasing overall efficiency and minimizing resource expenditure.

New |
Change Request: Process Improvement
Description:
When accessing assets within the SKO Catalog, users are currently unable to directly verify the appropriate reportable commodity associated with each item. As a result, users must first navigate to Catalog Management > Stock Number to obtain the necessary commodity information. Once the appropriate commodity has been identified, users must then return to the SKO Catalog to update the assembly accordingly—completing this process on a line-item-by-line-item basis. This additional step ensures that all entries are accurately aligned with their respective commodity classifications.
Recommended:
Implement the addition of the appropriate reportable commodity type for each component within the SKO. This information can be integrated either as an additional column in the existing layout or as an optional field within the grid options.
Mission Critical:

Material Redistribution (MM) Process Corrections
|
Materiel Management |
USMC |
New |
Change Request: Process Improvement
Description:
During MARCORLOGCOM’s review of current ELMS processes within the Material Management (ICP) module, it was discovered that system is incorrect selecting and displaying inventory records not within the scope of the redistribution request. This process of incorrect selecting and displaying data lends itself to the Inventory Manager selecting invalid data resulting in inventory mismatches and transactional denials. This also created unnecessary denials leading to inventory requests.
Recommended:
1.0 In the Material Management (ICP) module, when an Inventory Manager is creating a new “Redistribution Order”, ELMS shall not automatically create the 527D/DW_ transactions until after the Inventory Manager completes the MRO 940R/A5_ request. (see attached document)
1.2 Currently, during the creation of the “Redistribution Order” the system returns the user first to the main results gridline. This forces the Inventory Manager to locate and select the document being worked prior to completing the 940R/A5_ process. Much like the “Customer Requestion” process in ELMS, the system shall proceed directly to the 940R/A5_ entry screen without returning first to the main results gridline. (see attached document, image 1.1 and 1.2)
1.3. When initiating a “New Redistribution Order” in the Material Management (ICP) module, if a Condition Code is selected and there is no on hand available assets to issue anywhere in the associated ICP, the system shall provide a popup alert to the Inventory Manager stopping the process and allowing the Inventory Manager to select a Condition Code that is appropriate to support the redistribution. (see attached document, image 1.0)
2.0 Currently, when creating the Material Redistribution order 940R/A5_, all Condition Codes and Purpose Codes are populated and displayed in the selection grid. When creating a 940R/A5_ Material Redistribution release order, in the Material Management (ICP) module, the system shall only display the Condition Code, associated Purpose Codes, and inventory with on hand available quantities matching the original Condition Code and Purpose Code selected.

Change Request: Process Improvement
Description:
The Army's Decision Support Tool (DST) is the system that tracks new equipment fielding and when they are to occur. Each fielding is assigned a PSD Id to each each equipment fielding. Currently the PSD Id is not included in the DLMS transaction to denote why the equipment is being sent to a Unit. The proposed improvement is to have ELMS provide for the input of the PSD Id into the PA Disposition Transfer Out and into the MM Customer Requisition processes enabling the value to be included in the DLMS transactions. See also ELMS SCR 01938
Recommended:
1. Modify MM Customer Requisition to provide for input of the PSD Id.
2. Modify PA Disposition to provide for the input of the PSD Id.
3. Include the PSD Id in the DLMS 527D (PMR) and DLMS 856S (Shipment Status) transactions sets within the Reference Identification loop using the PWC qualifier.
Mission Critical:

Option to print DD 1348 before disposal is approved
|
Warehouse |
ASA-ALT |
New |
Change Request: Process Improvement
Description:
When creating a disposal action within the DPAS WM module a DD 1348 can't be printed until the disposal is approved by the "Warehouse Manager and the "COR". For the COR to approve a disposal action they should verify that all signed documentation is uploaded in DPAS before approving the action. Since the DD 1348 can't be printed until after the COR approves the disposal the users are having to create the DD 1348's outside of DPAS. This can cause issues with data accurate since the users can't allow the system to generate the information. This also increases the time it takes to complete the transaction.
Recommended:
Allow the DD 1348 to be printed before the COR has to approve the transaction but after the "warehouse manager" has given the first approval.
Mission Critical:
The process must be flexible to support the business. This change will enable greater flexibility.
Benefits:
The DD 1348 will no longer have to be created outside of DPAS therefore the time to complete the action will decrease and the data on the DD 1348 will be in sync with the information that has been stored in the DPAS WM module.

Description:
Currently Authorization managers must input readiness code 'A' authorizations into FSM either via Mass update or manual input. In some cases the Unit Type Code (UTC)s and Auth details in FSM do not match the UTCs in the authoritative system which causes mismatches between the systems and requires manual intervention.
Recommended:
Establish an interface to the authoritative system Deliberate and Crisis Action Planning and Execution System (DCAPES) to limit or eliminate manual intervention. The DCAPES PMO also has a requirement for their system to accommodate this requirement
