01229 Individual Issue Verify All Button Warehouse AF: VSCOS Removed

Description
Component verification during issue and return processes is too long. Add a 'Verify All' button to the verification process to provide option to verify all items at once.

Recommended
Add a 'Verify All' button to the verification process to provide option to verify all items at once. Current process ties up excessive amount of man-hours if item being issued is a kit that contains hundreds of items. This process needs to be accelerated and the addition of a 'Verify All' button will alleviate this issue.

Mission Critical
Non-mission critical nor mandated but current process will hinder technician overall productivity by utilizing excessive man-hours in one single process.

Benefits
This will exponentially reduce time and improve personnel productivity.

Users

01228 Disposition Updates Enterprise Army: USACE Done

Description
We use the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Electronic Turn In Document (ETID's) program for processing excess, in conjunction with DPAS Disposition module for accountability/budget. Each program has a separate document register which are not compatible. This dual document number assignment affects hundreds of excess documents each month.   

Recommended
Request the ability to enter a manual document number in the Disposition process.  If this data field is left blank, then it auto-populates in exactly the same manner as DPAS Unit Issue, MILSTRIP, Transfer from External etc... This would give us the flexibility to process both internal and external items identified as excess.

Mission Critical
No, but it would allow us to track excess property from when it's first initiated at the customer level, through our excess processing center, to final disposal at DRMO with positive 100% tracking.  In other words, we would obtain excess cradle to grave accountability using one document number generated at the beginning of the turn in process.

Benefits
This change would eliminate the need to cross reference the two systems document registers, saving time and confusion when corresponding with an incoming customer and/or DRMO process request.

Users
At this time we are the only USACE warehouse using DPAS, so yes it affects all.
