| 01724 | Adding DoD Serial Nbr to Field Options & MU Screens | MU | USAF | In Progress | Description:
DoD Serial Nbr field is not available as a field option in all M&U screens and functions. USAF SE uses the DoD Serial Number field in M&U to associate the asset and DPAS record with the historical record in legacy systems. We do this by documenting the legacy system ID in the DoD Serial Nbr field in DPAS. Additionally, in many cases this ID is physically stenciled on the asset and is the primary means of ready identification.
Recommended:
Include the DoD Serial Nbr as a field option on all inquiry screens. Display DoD Serial Nbr field on all profiling, work order, work plan, maintenance schedule, and other primary functional screens where the serial number or asset ID are displayed.
Mission Critical:
Mission Critical. For most AF SE maintenance organizations the DoD Serial Nbr represents the primary means of equipment identification when the equipment is in use.
Benefits:
Significantly reduces time spent identifying equipment when needed for maintenance or inspection, improves accuracy of documentation and accountability by providing the most used identification method on necessary screens. Also has safety implications when a piece of equipment must be removed from service quickly to prevent injury to personnel or damage to a weapon system. Also allows custodians to more quickly and accurately inventory equipment. Significantly reduces time spent profiling by providing the most known and available identifier on the screen for assets awaiting profiling.

| 01723 | TDMS Interface Removal | Enterprise | Leidos | New | Description:
USMC has sunset the Technical Data Management System (TDMS), thus the TDMS interface is no longer operational.
Recommended:
This SCR is to remove the TDMS Interface system from the DPAS. As part of this effort, DPAS will remove / update the user's catalogs to reflect either FLIS or no external catalog that are currently aligned with TDMS.
Mission Critical:
Yes. Unused code is not permitted to exist within a system (STIG violation).
Benefits:
Improves performance and reduces the cost of maintaining the system with all references and BRs associated with TDMS removed.
Users:
The TDMS interface was used by USMC entities. The Consolidated Storage Program (CSP) has already re-aligned to utilize FLIS. A few other catalogs are currently associated with the TDMS interface. |

| 01722 | DPAS System Admin Review Process | Enterprise | Leidos | Done | Description:
DPAS received a NFR for its 2021 SSAE 18 audit review for its review of system processes. Currently DPAS's DAC, Quartz, and Pendulum processes provides no confirmation process when a DPAS administrator reviews background processes. DPAS does produce a daily report relating to the DAC processes (Batch, Reports and Process Queue), but even within, DPAS does not have a documented process that indicates that DPAS has reviewed the report and has taken action when an action is required.
Recommended:
DPAS develop a process where the System Administrator can confirm that a review of the processes was performed and the date/time it was performed. The goal would be to have a single control that can be implemented throughout the system where the SA could select, and enter comments to confirm that a review was completed. Upon Save, the process would write a row to a table containing the Users Id, Date/Time, what process was reviewed and the comments they may have entered. When requested to show proof that the reviews were being conducted in accordance with the DPAS procedures, DPAS could export the data to provide validation that the review is being performed.
Mission Critical:
Yes - Satisfy the SSAE18 audit process, without having to save the page, convert it to PDF and digitally sign it every time a review is performed.
Benefits:
Reduces the cost to validate the reviews are being performed and provides positive confirmation.
Users:
This supports the SSAE 18 / MDS requirements for positive validation that DPAS is reviewing the system in accordance to its procedures.

| 01721 | Warehouse Activity Report | Warehouse | USSOCOM | Removed | Description:
Within the Issues - Unit Transfer section of the Warehouse Activity Report (LPWHR78), the
account name in which the assets are being transferred to is not displayed. Recommended:
Add an additional column which contains the Account Name of who the assets were transferred to. If needed, the LIN/TAMCN or Condition Code can be removed from this section to provide the needed room of adding a new column.
Mission Critical:
Mandated - Day to day activities can still be completed.
Benefits:
Adding this additional column would assist in accountability as well as reduce the time as the user would have a report which shows the complete transaction of where the asset was transferred from and where it was transferred to.
Users:
This greatly affects our Armory users as they must be able to show the complete electronic transactions for accountability purposes. A minor affect is relayed to the rest of the user base for the times that a unit transfer is conducted. 12 December 2022 – cancelled per Jason Boden |

| 01720 | UII and pRFID Association | Enterprise | Leidos | In Progress | Description:
Since the legacy handheld applications are no longer supported by the project, there is no method, outside of initial asset receiving to associate a UII marking or RFID tag information to assets within DPAS.
Recommended:
Provide the ability to capture and associate IUID markings and/or pRFID tag to an asset within DPAS utilizing AIT and/or mobile devices. This include both serial and bulk pRFID tag information and would be available within the Property book and Warehouse modules.
Mission Critical:
There are more and more organizations evaluating passive RFID as a more effective method of asset identification. There is also a need to collect and associate Bulk RFID tag information within DPAS to enable the conducting of physical inventories and performing issues.
Benefits:
Improves the accuracy and efficiency of identifying assets in several of the materiel management processes within DPAS

| 01716 | Maint Group ID Grid Column Option - Stock Number Inquiry | PA | NAVSUP | New | Description:
In Property Accountability, the newer "Stock Number Inquiry" (Inquiries - Catalog - Stock Number Inquiry) that was implemented with eCatalog functionality is missing a grid column option to select and add the Maintenance Group ID field value for inquiry searches/extract output that the legacy/original PA "Stock Number" labeled inquiry provides as a field option. Navy needs to move to using the newer inquiry due to the nature of the old inquiry pulling additional catalog data from the old NSWC PA Site ID (NW-SWC) which still resides in Navy's PA agency hierarchy, but is tied to the JO-SOCOM catalog. The newer "Stock Number Inquiry" is more efficient and does not appear to exhibit this behavior, but is missing the referenced and required grid column option being requested.
Recommended:
Add "Maint Group ID" selectable option (Grid Options - Columns) in the newer "Stock Number Inquiry" in Property Accountability.
Mission Critical:
Yes - Navy has a DPAS interface with external maintenance systems in our 4 Naval Shipyards. Assets are added or removed from DPAS report to that interface daily. Thus, we need access to the Maint Grp ID field to review/identify all applicable stock numbers set to interface and those stock numbers that are set to interface for corrective action necessary to keep the DPAS assets reporting to the external maintenance programs at the shipyards.
Benefits:
Other organizations aside from Navy may benefit from the addition of this additional grid column option in the newer Stock Number Inquiry as well.
Users:
This would provide additional data to all users within our agency although a large, but limited number of personnel would require it. |

| 01715 | DPAS - MCPIC Interface | Warehouse | USMC | Done | Description:
Interface between DPAS-WM and MCPIC.
Recommended:
Interface should accomplish the following:
1. Automated moves between MCPIC and DPAS-WM. When MCPIC picks up a location change for an item, it converts it from GPS to a DPAS-WM location and then passes that new location to DPAS-WM. DPAS-WM automatically does the move transaction to place the identified asset in the location identified by MCPIC.
2. Tags can be printed in either system but it is recommended that MCPIC generate all pRFID tag numbers. This is prevent identical numbers being generated using the the DoD 96 bit EPC structure.
3. MCPIC will pass information to DPAS in any format approved by DPAS PMO. This will include direct data exchange, MILS, or DLMS.
4. MCPIC will utilize asset data found in DPAS-WM Catalog when tagging assets in order to minimize any exception errors.
Mission Critical:
Mission critical.
Benefits:
Eliminates 'lost' containers due to moves not properly recorded in DPAS. Improves inventory location accuracy.
Users:
This affects USMC only, however the synergy between DPAS and MCPIC would be very useful to other services.
