Description: When a product identifier (stock number) changes for a serially managed GFP item, ELMS cannot currently recognize it as a change to the same item. Existing DLMS 947I processing treats a product/service identifier change as a drop (delete) of the old record followed by an add of a new record. This breaks the continuity and history of the serially managed asset and makes stock number changes difficult to track accurately. DLMS ADC 1515 enables a dual transactions (loss and gain) within the same transaction set.
Recommended: Implement DLMS ADC 1515 (Multi-Change 947I Transaction Update, signed 31 Jul 2026) in ELMS.
1. Modify Warehouse inventory update to report updates using the dual transaction capability of the DLMS 947I.
2. Modify Materiel Mgmt. update to support a dual DLMS 947I for stock nbr changes as provided by ADC 1515.
3. Note: ELMS must continue to support one-sided Stock Nbr change transactions as it was not eliminated from the IC.
Mission Critical:
Required to comply with Approved DLMS Change (ADC) 1515, Multi-Change 947I Transaction Update, signed 31 Jul 2026, which updates the DLMS 947I standard.
Benefits:
More accurately tracks stock number (product identifier) changes for serially managed GFP; preserves asset continuity and audit history instead of losing it through a drop/add cycle; aligns ELMS with the approved DLMS 947I standard (ADC 1515); and reduces manual reconciliation and the risk of orphaned or duplicated records when identifiers change. Failure to implement this ADC will result in DLMS 947I dual stock nbr transaction set suspending.
