Description
This SCR is being submitted on behalf of SPECWARCOM based upon a Site Implementation visit. The current DPAS Warehouse Transfer capabilities limit the selection of materiel to a single Stock Nbr or Container that can contain more than one Stock Nbr. SPECWARCOM is not currently using the DPAS container functionality, but requires the capability to transfer materiel with different Stock Nbrs on the same "Order". SPECWARCOM also uses the DD Fm1149 to move materiel rather than the DD Fm 1348. The Warehouse Transfer process needs to provide the user with the capability to select more than one Stock Nbr and to print the DD Fm 1149 with everything that is being transferred for those users that use this form for transferring materiel.
Recommended
Modify the DPAS Warehouse Transfer process to allow for the selection of Multi-Stock Nbr and for the printing of the DD Fm1149 that includes all materiel in the same Shipment/Order
Mission Critical
SPECWARCOM is eliminating its current business system "SWALIS" with the intent to use the DPAS warehouse module. All of its weapons are initially received by CRANE, IN with them subsequently being transferred to a local warehouse for issue/management. When the weapons require repair/replacement, they are shipped back to CRANE for disposition. Differing Stock Nbrs are shipped within the same shipment with the DD FM 1149 being used as the control document.
Benefits
The benefit of implementing this solution is that it will reduce the amount of time and improve the accuracy, which is very important when dealing with weapons. The selection of multiple Stock Nbrs will reduce the effort required to plan a Transfer and will reduce the amount of paper (DD Fm 1348 for each Stock Nbr shipped). It also provides for signatures for the losing and gaining warehouses.
Users
All users of the Warehouse Module.
