Helpdesk Tickets / Bugs Fixed

Ticket Nbr Module Details
86718 Maintenance & Utilization AvSE: DPAS/ILS-S - Update Serial Nbr to show all charcters, remove special characters and spaces
Value that was populating the Serial Number field of ILS-S Requisition was being cut down to last 7 characters. User requested all characters be shown and the ability for the user to edit this value if necessary

Resolution:
Made changes to the Serial Number field on the ILS-S Requisition Add screen so the user has full visibility of the End Item Serial Number. We also will automatically remove any spaces or special characters from the Serial Number at the time the user submits the Requisition
79773, 77641 Maintenance & Utilization WPMAN10 - VSCOS: MAM/Total Utilization Quantity not displaying properly in new UI
The Total Utilization Quantity within the MAM(Maintenance Asset Master), is not displaying the Total Utilization Qty.

Resolution:
This bug addressed the discrepancy with Total Utilization within MAM. Before, the total utilization field were getting it's value from the last utilization and not the summary of all utilizations. The End Meter reading now matches the Total Utilization Quantity. Along with that, we also added a validation to the utilization panel in MAM. The validation will check for Util On Base, Util Off Base and Meter Reading. In a scenario where the Util On Base change + Util Off Base Change does not equal the End Meter reading, a message will display. 
73656 Maintenance & Utilization WPMAN12 - Work Order AU - Work Plan Browse Short criteria search does not work
Work Plan Browse Short criteria search does not work

Resolution:
Users need to have the ability to search appropriately via browses in M&U and the correction of this bug will allow users the appropriate ability to search and filter as they need with short criteria searches.    
89095 Maintenance & Utilization WPMAN12 - Work Order Report Asset Indicator - Asset Indicator section not on Full Work Order report when printed as required by Step 7.
The Asset Indicator was not being displayed on the full Work Order report when being printed by the user.

Resolution:
The Asset Indicator will be displayed correctly when printing the full Work Order report via the Work Order Process.
77960 Property Accountability WPHRN05 - FH-AFHAF: Transaction error on attempted Update Inventory process on bulk asset
The Update Inventory process is not accepting partial quantity inventory updates for bulk assets.

Resolution:
Bulk Assets can now be correctly processed in partial amounts in the Update Inventory process.
86632 Property Accountability WPHRR24 - Assets On Loan Report - Delivery order nbr displayed on Assets on Loan Report WPHRR24 is incorrect on the report
Asset on Loan report was displaying the in-correct value in the Delivery Order Number field.

Resolution: The first serial number of the first Asset Id listed under every Contract Nbr is displayed as the delivery order nbr. The report is shifting values into the incorrect fields. This has now been resolved.
84224, 87715 Warehouse LPWHN25 - Member Profile AUD / NBG-2: Unexpected error trying to add member profiles

83246 Warehouse LPWHN50 - Disposition / Container Id field generates 'select inventory' error
Generating a Disposition by container does not populate the Stock Numbers.

Resolution:

    • Once 'Take Selected' is clicked and Container Browse closes, the selected Container Id displays in the Container Id field. 
  • User can use the Container Id field to enter a container to dispose
    • Intellisense is fully functional on the field
    • Intellisense is currently set to 'contains' - this should remain 
    • A Container Id can be entered into the field, selecting 'Save' should close the drawer and the disposal record(s) is added to the grid

System Change Details

 

Database

01823 - CAGE Master - CAGE Browse, Microservice and MPN

Module: Database
What Changed:
 
DPAS consumes CAGE master data from DAAS to improve the accuracy of the DPAS system, and lets users access official CAGE codes from DLA. The user continues creating CAGE codes using the current logic, and allowing entry of any CAGE code fitting the required format.
 
The Originating Problem:
CAGE data is sent to DAAS in two forms, a monthly full file and daily update files. The monthly files are a complete set of commonly requested CAGE data, current as of the file date stamp. Daily update files contain only changes from previous day’s data. Each of these files are sent to DAAS in JSON format, and CAGE Data Element descriptions are provided by DAAS. To consume this data for use within DPAS, the JSON files are passed to GEX to be consumed by the system. DPAS is updated to allow the user to reference this data within the cataloging processes to ensure utilization of official CAGE codes.
 
Impact:
Consumption of the CAGE master data from DAAS improves the accuracy and accountability of the DPAS system, by ensuring a source exists for users to access official CAGE codes from DLA in the autocomplete, as well as a new CAGE Master Browse. The user continues creating CAGE codes using the current logic allowing entry of any CAGE code fitting the required format. 
 
 
 

Maintenance & Utilization

01330 - Reimbursable and Mission Critical Indicators - Attributes and MAM

Module: Maintenance & Utilization
What Changed:
Designates specific stock numbers as Reimbursable and/or Mission Critical, and then manages the indicators for associated assets by marking them as Reimbursable, Refundable and/or Mission Critical within MAM. 
 
The Originating Problem:
Prior to this feature, DPAS did not provide the capability to identify an asset as Reimbursable and/or Mission Critical. Fleet analysts and technicians needed a simple, standard and repeatable solution to distinguish Reimbursable and/or Mission Critical to properly manage, direct actions, or perform maintenance.

Impact:
Users must designate the need for the Reimbursable and/or Mission Critical indicator on specific stock numbers in order for the functionality to display within MAM. 

Mobile Platform

01903 - Warehouse Management / Physical Inventory Specialist Role

Module: Mobile Platform
01903 - Warehouse Management / Physical Inventory Specialist Role
 
What Changed:
The Warehouse Management / Physical Inventory Specialist Role access is available for users.

The Originating Problem:
There are users whose sole DPAS responsibility is to conduct and report the results of a physical inventory.

Impact:
This role enables separation of duties and limits users who conduct physical inventories to those functions within the DPAS Warehouse Management application using the automated capabilities of DPAS.

Warehouse

01060 - Unit Return / SKO Popup

Module: Warehouse
01060 - Unit Return / SKO Popup
 
What Changed:
Provided the functionality to leave missing components on an Unit Outstanding List for a Unit Return; same process used within Individual Return for SKO Items.
 
 
Image

The Originating Problem:
 
Currently there is no functionality when a unit returns a kitted (aka SKO List) item. For instance, if Tents are returned, yet the RO (custodian) is missing the SKO components, they are now able to leave the missing component(s) on the RO's CMR or Unit Outstanding List. There were a number of production support tickets as a result of this - kits, nested kits and components not returned. 
 

Impact:
This change addresses a lot of the root cause issue for those tickets and provides better, more efficient method for SKO management within unit return.

01849 - SKO Catalog Improvements / Authorized On-Hand Qty

Module: Warehouse
What Changed:
Data fields are added to the Warehouse Stock Item screen under a new Table of Allowance tab within the Add / Edit pop-up window. These set allowance authorized and required per stock number and/or SKO at the Warehouse DoDAAC level for users with the Stock Item Allowance Manager role.
 
Image

The Originating Problem:
DPAS currently has high and low limits for stocking, but do not want to change those fields for inventory management purposes. NECC has a need for a data field that captures the allowance authorized per stock number / SKO at the Warehouse / DoDAAC / UIC Level.

Impact:
Fields are set on stock items for any users with the newly added Stock Item Allowance Manager role. A new inquiry screen is currently being developed to display over/under allowance quantities for on-hand, issued, and due in inventory.
