01068 Warehouse Transfer - Multi-Select Stock Nbrs and Printing of DD Frm 1149 Warehouse SPECWARCOM Done

Description
This SCR is being submitted on behalf of SPECWARCOM based upon a Site Implementation visit.  The current DPAS Warehouse Transfer capabilities limit the selection of materiel to a single Stock Nbr or Container that can contain more than one Stock Nbr.  SPECWARCOM is not currently using the DPAS container functionality, but requires the capability to transfer materiel with different Stock Nbrs on the same "Order".  SPECWARCOM also uses the DD Fm1149 to move materiel rather than the DD Fm 1348.  The Warehouse Transfer process needs to provide the user with the capability to select more than one Stock Nbr and to print the DD Fm 1149 with everything that is being transferred for those users that use this form for transferring materiel.

Recommended
Modify the DPAS Warehouse Transfer process to allow for the selection of Multi-Stock Nbr and for the printing of the DD Fm1149 that includes all materiel in the same Shipment/Order

Mission Critical
SPECWARCOM is eliminating its current business system "SWALIS" with the intent to use the DPAS warehouse module.  All of its weapons are initially received by CRANE, IN with them subsequently being transferred to a local warehouse for issue/management.  When the weapons require repair/replacement, they are shipped back to CRANE for disposition.  Differing Stock Nbrs are shipped within the same shipment with the DD FM 1149 being used as the control document.

Benefits
The benefit of implementing this solution is that it will reduce the amount of time and improve the accuracy, which is very important when dealing with weapons. The selection of multiple Stock Nbrs will reduce the effort required to plan a Transfer and will reduce the amount of paper (DD Fm 1348 for each Stock Nbr shipped).  It also provides for signatures for the losing and gaining warehouses.

All users of the Warehouse Module.

The agency predefined inquiry:  Asset Inventory Counts by UIC needs to have the Site ID and Accountable UIC field added to the report to provide clarity as to which Site ID / Actbl UIC owns the assets.  Navy has situations where a UIC is contained in more than one Site ID.  Thus causing confusion as which Site ID/Actbl UIC actually owns the asset that is past due for inventory. 

Recommended:

01066 Managed Kit Returns Warehouse USMC New

Description
Currently, while conducting an Individual or Unit return for a Managed Kit, when the kit is missing components the Kit will be Returned at the Primary Stock Number in Condition Code "G".

Recommended
Recommend that when conducting an Individual or Unit Return for a Managed Kit, if a member is missing a component of the managed kit, the kit will no longer be returned as the Primary End Item Stock Number.  It will just return the remaining components.

Mission Critical
Yes. This will assist in the accuracy of Warehouse Inventory, thus reducing the time of employees having to go through all Primary End Item Stock Numbers in Condition Code "G" to figure out what components are missing.

Benefits
Having this capability will reduce time and cost while improving the accuracy of the current inventory posture. 

Users

01065 Appointment Scheduler Warehouse USMC Done

Description

  4. Ability for customer to pick time of Appointment (allow 45 minutes for full issue; 10 minutes for exchange; and 30 minutes for return).
  5. On the member profile, ability for customer to pick their Unit Name from a list. The UIC should populate to the corresponding Unit Name that the customer selected.
  6. Ability for customer to view their Master Issue List, for Issues. Some customers may have more than one Master Issue List to pick from such as the Airwing.
  7. Ability for customer to pick items to be issued/returned/exchanged from Unit Equipment List, to include a select all feature for "full issue".
  8. Ability for customer to select an Issue/Exchange Appointment to apply/add select sizes for items to be issued/exchanged.

  11. Ability for the customer and the privileged role/function (enterprise, site warehouse officer) to be able to cancel and find appointments
  12. Ability to incorporate the Process Metrics SCR #783  - For enterprise, site warehouse Officer to be able to measure the metrics of how long an issue, return, exchange, or temp loan is taking them in the system.

Mission Critical
Yes. Deputy Chief of Staff, Installations and Logistics has tasked the CSP with conducting a Proof of Principle in order to examine new ways of operating in order to reduce customer wait time.  A scheduling capability will reduce customer wait time, help spread-load the daily workload, and help the 3PL support provider to better plan and maximize use of human resources. 

Benefits
Having a scheduling module capability will reduce customer wait time, help spread-load the daily workload, and help the 3PL support provider to better plan and maximize use of human resources. It will also set the stage for use of autonomous robotics, as well as delivery. 

Users
All Unit IIF customers.

01064 DD1149 Addition to Warehouse Module Warehouse DISA Removed

Description
The warehouse module doesn't currently create DD1149 for MRO Issue.  Add DD1149 to the warehouse module to include multiple items on one shipment. Using the DD1348 will create a separate document for each like item only, which can potentially be hundreds of documents at one time. This will affect our non-kit shipments. 

Recommended
Add DD1149 to the Warehouse Module for multiple item shipment to customer during the MRO Issue and Disposal process.

Mission Critical
Accessibility of the DD1149 enable DISA users to receive detail information for each shipment (See sample attach DD1149) which the DD1348 doesn't accommodate.

Benefits
Workforce Service Directorate (WSD) is responsible for managing all DISA warehouses and would like to transition warehouse operations from DPAS property module to DPAS warehouse module.

Users
Yes, this action affects all user within the Agency.

29Nov2016 – cancelled per Daryl Hanchock
If it drops it from inventory like the MRO and produces a DD1149 then that's exactly what DISA is looking for. The SCR is no longer needed.
