00858 Add attachments to deleted assets PA Navy New

AMENDED INFORMATION:

Description
There is currently no capability to view attachments or add attachments to the electronic records of assets that have been removed from DPAS as a result of processing a Disposition and / or Transfer. This SCR is an update and replaces SCR Number 858 submitted July 2015.

Recommended
Provide functionality for attachments that exist on an asset to be viewed after the asset is removed as a result of a disposition and / or Transfer and the ability to add attachments to assets for the following:
- Assets deleted under Asset Management / Disposition
- Assets transferred under Asset Management / Transfer

Mission Critical
Yes. Navy FIAR control points require supporting disposition and transfer documentation be attached to asset records to include: key supporting documents (DD 1348/DD 1149) and key supplemental supporting documents.   Recent Ernst and Young Navy Audit notice of findings provide examples of assets dispositioned or transferred that do not have KSD to support those transactions.  No process exists to add KSDs or view KSDs that previously were attached to the asset record.

Benefits
This implementation will support accountability and auditability at all levels and for all services within DOD. 

Users
Affects all Navy Site ID's and UIC's.

 

You cannot add attachments to assets removed after processing a Disposition and Transfer action. Recommended solution: Provide functionality to add attachments to delete assets: 1. Multiple attachments to a single or multiple deleted asset record. 2. A single attachment to a single or multiple deleted asset records.

Added from Cancelled SCR 01384:

Description

00857 Upcoming Work and WO MU OSD New When a Work Order is opened in DPAS M&U for an asset assigned to the Maintenance Activity, all upcoming scheduled maintenance actions should be reflected as well to maximize garage time. Recommended solution:?Once an asset is assigned to a Work Order, an Upcoming Maintenance tab is revealed in the Maintenance Header to reflect schedule jobs and due dates for that asset.
00856 M&U Attachments MU OSD New Currently there is no way to find Work Orders or Dispatches that have attachments. Recommended solution:?As in PA, when inquiring Dispatches or Work Orders, we need to have a way to identify those with attachments.
00855 Utilization Push to GSA MU OSD Done

Description
For GSA vehicles, monthly mileage is used to determine fuel cost. Meter readings are either captured at the pump from manual input from driver or agencies can transmit via a File Transfer Protocol (FTP). Desire is to use end meter readings from DPAS Dispatch as a more accurate utilization for transmitting to GSA for cost determination.

Recommended
Similar to AIRRS flight utilization reporting, transmit captured meter readings from DPAS Utilization, at a minimum, weekly to GSA via FTP. Make DPAS the authoritative source for GSA leased utilization reporting.

Mission Critical
This is mission critical and mandated for GSA vehicles IAW Drive-Thru’s FTP Monthly Mileage Upload Tool User Manual
(http://www.gsa.gov/portal/getMediaData?mediaId=208083)

Benefits
Improves accuracy in utilization reporting, eliminates the manual monthly reporting and uses DPAS as the authoritative source

Users
This is a Fleet Manager (M&U Officer) requirement to report asset level utilization and the Dispatch Officer/Specialist will capture at close of each Dispatch.

00854 Increase Hard Limit for DPAS Exports Warehouse USMC: DMC Done

Description
When exporting data from Defense Property Accountability System (DPAS) that contains more than 25,000 records, the users receive an error message that says the following:
Max Export Limit Reached
The maximum limit for exporting is 25,000 records.
This can affect users who are performing any type of analysis of mass records. It would be best to have no hard limit on an amount or records that can be exported.
I am requesting that we modify the maximum limit. My recommendations are below, in the preferred order (if option 1 can be achieved, then use that. If not, then see if we can use option 2...)

  1. Unlimited
  2. 1,000,000
  3. 500,000
  4. 250,000
  5. 100,000

Please note that if any of the options are placed in effect, then the generic file format for Excel (.xls) needs to be changed to the following file extension: .xlsx. The current format, .xls, is limited to 65536 rows and 256 columns per sheet; however, the file extension of .xlsx allows 1,048,576 rows and 16,384 columns per sheet.

Mission Critical
This is mission critical in that it does not allow any type of data mining within DPAS, transitively causing a critical deficiency in the process flow of tasks that require data mining or mass reconciliation.

00853 Enterprise level DPAS Unique item Tracking (UIT) reconciliation PA Logistics Support Activity Removed

LOGSA requests an enterprise level DPAS Unique item Tracking (UIT) reconciliation be initiated for the attached list of UIT and Asset reporting UIC values within DPAS. Capability to submit a reconciliation was carried over from legacy DPAS to WEBDPAS. ?This is normally requested bi-yearly via help desk ticket submission. Recommended solution:?The reconciliation is required on a monthly basis to support more real-time asset visibility in LOGSA tools in the Logistics Information Warehouse (LIW).

00852 Suspense File/Queue & Server-side Error Processing for mobile transactions Warehouse USMC: CSP Removed
A common problem on the DPAS Hand Held is that transactions processed receive an error (for various reasons).  When an error is received on the hand held, there is no capability to work the discrepancy.  There is also no capability on the hand held to clear the discrepancy, without going into the SD card on the device and deleting the .SDF file. 
 
Recommended solution: It is recommended that the DPAS Scanner pass all transactions to the DPAS On-Line application and push error transactions to an inbound error que that can be worked by system clerks.  The Scanner itself should push all work, regardless of error to this file for resolution.  Error files should not be stuck on the scanner with no capability to remove them without deleting the SDF file. The end state is that all work that is completed on a scanner be pushed to the warehouse for disposition, so that the warehouseman can continue work uninterrupted by errors.

00851 Inventory Update - add additional reason codes for kits (Issue to Assembly and Disassembly) Warehouse USMC Removed

Description

00850 Stock Nbr Inventory Inquiry - add additional search criteria (date range) and grid option columns Warehouse USMC Removed

Currently within the Inquiries/Inventory/Stock Nbr Inventory menu there are a couple parameters missing that would enhance the reporting capabilities within DPAS-WM. Under the Search Criteria a Date range should be added. Also additional columns are needed in the Stock Nbr Qty results. Recommended solution: Recommend that a "From Date" and a "To Date" should be options under the Search Criteria. Also 3 columns should be added to the grid options in the Stock Nbr Qty results field. The columns to add would be "Returned Qty", "Lost Qty" and "Disposed Qty". ?Returned Qty would be the total return number (within provided date range - or all if no date given) for the specified stock number. The Lost Quantity would be the total number of items lost for the same date range. For Lost items the reason codes to be used would be KI (killed in action), LT (left in theater), MD (missing damaged), ?and N6 (NAVMC 6). The Disposed quantity would be the total number of items, by date range, that were Disposed of with either Local Disposal or Excess as the Disposition Type. These items would only be counted for once they have been completed and out of the inventory.
