01816 Add Fields to Inventory Activity Inquiry Warehouse USMC New

Mission Critical:
Yes this will help with audit purposes and causative research to be able to show the requisition numbers for all stock numbers on a DD1149 instead of searching for document numbers for each stock number.

01815 Custodian Attachment PA DoDEA New
Description:
Asset custodians are required to be designated in writing and supporting documentation is encouraged by the DOD to be retained electronically. Currently, the DPAS Warehouse Module allows users to attach document to custodians, however, the Property Accountability module does not. Having the ability to attach Custodian designation letters and Custodian turnover forms to a Custodian in DPAS PA would ensure retention and allow for significantly easier remote audits and inspections.

Recommended:
Add the option to include an attachment when adding or updating a Custodian, similarly to what already exists in the Warehouse Module.
 
Mission Critical:
Custodians are required to be designated in writing and DOD encourages electronic storage of all Key Supporting Documents. Having the option to upload custodian letters to the applicable custodian would consolidate the documentation and meet any future electronic storage requirements.
 
Benefits:
This change will enable DoDEA, as well as other services, to efficiently retain the required custodian designation letters electronically in the same system as the relevant property record. This will also improve auditability by making it easier to access the documentation remotely reducing the time/effort required when this documentation is requested.
 
Users:
This affects all DOD users.

01812 Mfr Part Nbr FAST Reportable Indicator MU Leidos Done
Description:
During the 2022.2 customer maintenance demos, the customers expressed a desire to have FAST reporting defined corporately rather than allowing each Maintenance Activity have the capability to establish the determination.  Today, the catalog team has a FAST indicator within the Mfr Part Nbr process.  When set to Yes (system defaults to Yes when ACC = P, but user can override the setting)  When the FAST Indicator is Yes, the system forces the user to select a FAST Mfr Name.  Currently the indicator is not an attribute, thus there is no true positive confirmation that the asset is FAST reportable.  Example: User could set it to No and then enter a Mfr Name such as "GM" which is a valid FAST Mfr value.

Recommended:
Add a FAST Indicator value to the Mfr Part Nbr table to identify assets associated with this mfr part nbr record, that the asset is FAST reportable.   Update the process to populate the value, add to grid / inquires, reports. Sync Fast Indicator with M&U.  Modify logic in M&U for determining FAST reportable assets.
 
Mission Critical:
This change will enable DPAS to validate the asset is FAST reportable at the Mfr Part Nbr level.
 
Benefits:
Improves accuracy for FAST Reportable assets.  Eliminates Maintenance Activities being able to not report commercially designed vehicles.
 
Users:
Nearly All - Most components / agencies that utilize DPAS have commercially design vehicles that required FAST reporting.

01811 Multiple Location Condition Code per Stock Number Warehouse AF: DF-VEHS New
Description:
DPAS Warehouse limits Location Condition Code for a stock number to one Location Id.  When receiving multiple quantities of a stock number under a single document, all will default to the single location and then need dispersal to various locations.  Each warehouse will have multiple locations that require the same stock number and have a single Due-in, Backorder, or Return created to replenish or restock the items.

Recommended:
Allow multiply Location Condition Codes for same stock number.  Enables user to chose several locations by quantity they would like to receive/return stock numbers streamlining process.
 
Mission Critical:
This is not critical or mandated, however improving system efficiencies decreases time warfighter spends performing non-wartime tasks
 
Benefits:
Automation provides a time reduction searching commonly received stock numbers for warehouse location replenishments (e.g.,individual issues).  Additionally, potential to eliminate or reduce misplaced items within warehouse.  Allows warfighter to focus on critical mission tasks vs. assigning warehouse replenishment locations.

01810 DBO Table Deprecation Enterprise Leidos Done
Description:
Currently DPAS duplicates catalog information across two separate database schemas which are kept in sync through the use of triggers. The planned improvement is to replace the triggers with views of the source tables to support catalog data within the PA / MU environments.

Recommended:
The catalog tables within the dbo schema will be removed and replaced with a synonym and view to allow the data to be accessed directly from the catalog schema within DPAS. This will ensure no data needs to be synced to the tables referenced by the PA/MU processes and they can function as they do today.
 
Mission Critical:
Mission Critical. DPAS should not be duplicating data in the system. Proposed changes will increase catalog process performance and ensure consistency of catalog data system wide.
 
Benefits:
DPAS will improve accuracy and accountability by ensuring consistency of data within the catalog
 
Users:
This change will impact/benefit all catalogers within DPAS

01807 ServiceNow DPAS Interface Enterprise USAF FF-GEIT New
Description:
The EITaaS IPO has asked our SAIC partners, as a part of our Risk Reduction Effort, to demonstrate that they can integrate with DPAS and leverage ServiceNow (Our approved system of record) to do asset management across the EITaaS portfolio.
