Description:
With DPAS Release 5.0, DPAS began to incorporate the features to have DPAS become a Real Property Accountable Property System of Record (APSR). The initial SCR did not provide for a process of scheduling and managing physical inventories for Real Property as would be required of an APSR.
Recommended:
Provide a process to schedule and manage real property physical inventories. As the Real Property physical inventory resides within the Real Property Review process, it is recommended that the design includes the capability to schedule and manage all times of reviews. To support this, it is recommended that DPAS provide a form for conducting the Physical Inventory, and a separate form for the types of reviews. This form should be printable on 8 1/2 x 11 paper and be able to be attached to the review. It is imperative that the user be able to view prior reviews and be able to view/print the documentation of those prior reviews.
Mission Critical:
Yes. As an APSR, a Physical Inventory process must be a part of the system.
Benefits:
Provides for physical inventory and the retention of the documentation within one solution. Organizations will not need to develop/maintain another system to track and manage RP physical inventories.
Users:
All organizations that are using DPAS to manage their Real Property.
