System Change Details

Catalog

01826 - Stock Nbr AUD updates to improve user access for catalog updates

Module: Catalog

What Changed:

Unit Price and UI/Stocking UI fields are now available during the Stock Number Edit process.

UI/Stocking UI will only be available:

- if there are no records on the dbo.due_in table, or

- on the wm.documents table where the type is MA (Misc Add), MR (MILSTRIP), PO (Purchase Order), or TE (Transfer From External) and the status is O (Open).

The Originating Problem:

The Stock Number AUD within DPAS prevented the update of several fields due to the association to ICNs, inventory assets, or external catalogs prompting users to submit data fix requests.

Now certain fields are available during the Stock Number edit process to allow users to make changes to the stock number record, as well as required updates to inventory handled automatically through the existing Stock Number process.

Impact:

Unit Price, Unit of Issue, and Stocking Unit of Issue is now editable through the Stock Number AUD LPCTN01

Enterprise

Release 2022.3.2 Database Changes

Module: Enterprise

-Screen shot(s)

Maintenance

01809 - Work Order / Mass Closure (Prerequisites)

Module: Maintenance

What changed:

No changes should be observed.

Materiel Management

01016 - EOD/EOM Reconciliation - Calculate/Report amount of time for correction

Module: Materiel Management

What changed:

A column named Days Unreconciled was added to the grid on the EOD/EOM Inventory Balance screen (ICP > Materiel Mgmt > EOD/EOM Inventory Balance) to show the amount of time to correct records that were originally received in an unreconciled state.

The column shows the number of days elapsed from receipt of the original transaction to the date it was reconciled, whether manually (by a user) or automatically (through historical records being requested and received).

The column is located immediately to the right of Transaction Date Time by default. As with all columns, it can be moved (via drag and drop) or removed (via Grid Options > Columns).

The originating problem:
AF GFM-A did not have visibility into the amount of time it takes for EOD/EOM inventory records to be reconciled if they are not reconciled when they are initially received.

Impact:

Users will be able to see the length of time elapsed for an unreconciled record to become reconciled.

Property Accountability

01782 - DPAS additional data for PA Form DD1348

Module: Property Accountability

What changed:

The Distribution community in the AF requires additional data elements to be populated in the DD Form 1348. The data is sourced from FLIS.

The data requested is intended to populate the following fields on the DD Form 1348:

- National Motor Freight Classification Identification Number

- Type Cargo

- Freight Classification Nomenclature Description.

The data is to be displayed as defined below:

Block 6 - displays the National Motor Freight Classification data

Block 8 - displays the Type Cargo data

Block 16 - displays the Freight Classification Nomenclature data

The originating problem:

The distribution community in the AF did not have visibility to the data for National Motor Freight Classification Identification Number, Type Cargo, and Freight Classification Nomenclature Description on the DD1348 form.

Impact:

Provides greater visibility to the type of cargo being processed.

01819 - DPAS Depreciation Period FMR 7000.14R Review

Module: Property Accountability

What changed:

Update DPAS depreciation periods to match FMR 7000.14R.

The originating problem:

DPAS depreciation schedules were out of date.

Impact:

DPAS depreciation periods are updated for financial reporting.

Warehouse

01572 - Disposition / Remaining Enhancements

Module: Warehouse

What Changed:

Export functionality is added to the menu under Grid options, located in the results header of the new Disposition page and Inventory Master Selection.

The Originating Problem:

The common react component had not yet been developed at the time of deployment.

This was loss of functionality for the modernization of the Disposition process.

Impact:

Users now have the ability to export the grid results into the standard (csv, excel and pdf) formats.

01801 - Microservices Infrastructure / Update Appointments Microservice .NET to 6.0

Module: Warehouse

What Changed:

.6 NET Core has a targeted end of life date of 11/12/2024.

The DPAS Appointment Microservice was upgraded to .NET 6.

The Originating Problem:

Microsoft has announced the end of life "EOL" for 3.1 .NET Core as 12-13-22.

DPAS has templates that are using this version that needed to be updated to the .6 NET Core version.

Impact:

This does not change the functionality of the appointment scheduler, though a system test should be performed to ensure the application still functions as expected.
The microservice is only used for the Appointment Queue Display, and is accessible (by Calendar Manager role) thru Warehouse Mgmt > Scheduling > Appointment Queue.

01841 - Appointment Scheduler / Dynamic use of the queue column(s) display

Module: Warehouse

What changed:

The number of appointments that present on the Appointment Queue has been increased to a maximum of 36 members.
Previously, the maximum number of unscheduled appointments was limited to a single column of 9 members.
The change was made to dynamically determine the number of columns required, with a maximum of 4, each presenting 9 members.

The originating problem:

Within the CSP issue/return facilities, each center typically service between 50-100 members, often with more than 15 members waiting at one time.
With only displaying 9 members at a time, members had to wait until the screen refreshed to determine their position in the Queue.

Impact:
They are using a 70" display, it should be able to more than 9 at one time.
This provides better information to the members waiting in the queue for their appointments.
