Change Request: Policy/ Regulatory

Description:

02024 CICP Reversal Document Numbers Materiel Management AF GFM Done
Change Request: New System process
 
Description: 
DAF CICPs send reversal transactions with references to document numbers that don't exist in DPAS; these transactions occurred before the CICP implemented in DPAS.  DPAS suspends these transactions resulting in inaccurate stock number inventory balances (which leads to further suspended transactions).  DAF needs a new solution to handle transaction reversals and these missing document numbers in the ICP Module to reduce the suspended transactions and report accurate inventory balances.  
 
Recommended:
A proposed solution was to load the document numbers associated with transactions that occurred before the CICP implemented in DPAS.  Alternative solution: remove the logic to check on the document number and simply accept the reversal transaction.  
 
Mission Critical:
 
 
Benefits:
Benefits: 1) The accuracy of the DAF CICP inventory balances would improve; 2) The number of suspended transactions would decrease; 3) Daily/Monthly inventory reconciliations would improve; 4) All contributes to accurate financial reporting; 5) DAF has many resources working to identify and correct suspended transactions; the solution would allow the resources to focus on other high priority tasks.
