Description
We are in the need to the capability to Ghost (add in) data to the Issue List without issue the data.
The reason for this is that there are many situations where a member has been issued gear that is not in the system.
Across the CSP enterprise there are old lists that need to be added to a members issue list. ?This anomaly in the data significantly slows down the returns process.
In the case of a "Ghost In," the system should record a gain to the issue quantity against that warehouse, and not decrement the stock on hand. This is necessary for those old/manual issues that when the member returns partial/most of their equipment.
In this instance, the data has to be listed on the members return list.
Recommended
We are in the need to the capability to Ghost (add in) or change data on a members issue list without changing the inventory posture in the warehouse. The reason for this is that there are many situations where a member has been issued gear that is not in the system. Across the CSP enterprise there are old lists that need to be added to a members issue list. This anomaly in the data significantly slows down the returns process. In the case of a “Ghost In,” the system should record a gain to the issue quantity against that warehouse, and not decrement the stock on hand. This is necessary for those old/manual issues that when the member returns partial/most of their equipment. In this instance, the data has to be listed on the members return list. Likewise, a members record should be able to be changed in any way via the Ghost process. All changes to the record should transactional impact the warehouse the issue is recorded against.
Mission Critical
This is a mission critical requirement for implementation at Camp Lejeune and beyond. The thing that makes this type of record absolutely critical is when a member comes in whose record and issued data is not in DPAS. That member has some of the gear he/she is returning, but not all of it. In the current return process, we add in items that are not being returned. As a result, we cannot properly capture that the member who came in still has gear, and get that data into the system. In addition, it is critical that we have the ability to input issued items date to the system for previous issues. There is no manual process for this now.
Benefits
The ability to Ghost in data will improve processing times across the counter, and will also result in greater inventory accuracy as the CSP Enterprise will now have the capability to manually correct/load data that should be in the system.
Users
This will affect all DPAS-WM users, and would greatly aid users in standing up the DPAS-WM.
