01516 Green Procurement Program Warehouse AF: VSCOS New

Description
DOD established a Green Procurement Program that gives preference to EPA-designated recycled-content vehicular products and United States Department of Agriculture-designated bio-based products. Vehicle Management is required to maintain a log of all Green Procurement purchases.

Recommended
Recommend adding features to receiving process to collect information needed to create a Green Procurement Report in the DPAS Warehouse. We suggest adding a "Green Procurement" check-box to the receiving process for users to identify items that fall under this criteria. The system should have an extra window during the receiving process or extra fields in the verification window for items identified as "Green Procurement" products. The extra fields need to capture the following information:

  • Product Category: Drop-down options should be (Sorbent, Tire, Coolant, Engine Oil, Gear Oil, Hydraulic Fluid, and Other Lubricants)
  • Product Type: Drop-down options should be (New/Virgin, Re-Refined, Recycled, Bio-Based, or Retreated)
    Procurement Exception: Drop-down options should be (None; Excessive ETA; Manufacture Requirement; No Bio/Recycled Material; Retread Not Available Locally; Spacecraft/Launch Support; Tactical Asset; T.O. Exception; Mission Essential Support; Unreasonable Cost; Other)
  • Size: Open field for user to enter Tire Size

All the information collected along with other fields need to be combined into a Green Procurement Report. The report needs to list all historical acquisition records for items that fall under this criteria with the ability to filter by different tier levels. The report should display the following fields: Date, Product Category, Product Type, Document Type, Document Sub Type, Procurement Exception, Quantity, Unit of Issue, Stock Number, Size, Total Cost.

Mission Critical
Yes. The use and documentation of Green Procurement Items is mandated by the United States Environmental Protection Agency; Section 6002 of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA)

Benefits
This system upgrade will centralize Green Procurement information in one place and it will satisfy EPA requirements for all DPAS users. Also, users will no longer have to log/track GPP information using other local trackers and therefore save time/man hours.

Users
The entire DoD will benefit from having Green Procurement data centralized in the Warehouse Module.

01515 Physical Inventory Selection Improvement Location Warehouse AF: VSCOS New

Description
During the Physical Inventory process when selecting a single facility, the quick search does not default to the zones and locations built within selected facility.  All zones and locations are shown regardless of facility selected. This makes it difficult with selecting specific zones if the zone names are labeled with the same name.

Recommended
We recommend progressive restriction for facility selections.  Example: If Facility A is selected, allow only zones, locations, containers built within Facility A to be listed as selection options.

Mission Critical
This is critical because we utilize zones to manage programs that exists in different facilities and have the same Zone ID.

Benefits
Filtering down selection options based on upper level will save time when creating new location inventories.

Users
The entire Air Force component as well as other services will benefit from filtering down location options based on upper level selections.

01514 Improve Pop-Up Windows Warehouse SPECWARCOM Removed

Description
There are multiple processes that have pop-up windows that are part of the functionality in order to complete each step. The size of the pop-up window is currently set at a default size and there is no option to enlarge. Require the ability to maximize the pop-up window.

Recommended
Create a maximize icon at the top right corner next to the exit screen icon, allowing user to manipulate the screen with easy. This will prevent user scrolling up and down on the wrong window.

Mission Critical
Mission Critical - Due to Maintenance requirement mandate. Maintenance assessments and repairs must be accomplished in accordance with current standards required by NAVSEASYSCOMINST 8370.2D and COMNAVSPECWARCOMINST 8020.2A. Maintenance assessments are required prior to SEAL/SB Team deployment. The IDTC time-line does not allow wholesale asset turn-in for maintenance. Assessments and repairs must be conducted while assets remain in SEAL/SWCC OICs/AOICs custody. Assessment results and repair parts usage must be documented when assets are not in the custody of the accountable armory.

Benefits
This will allow NSW Armories to maintain their current operational level of support with minimal impact to the amount of time it takes to perform COMNAVSEASYSCOM and COMNAVSPECWARCOM required armory maintenance actions.

Users
This currently applies to Armory users within NSW, but it is foreseeable that it could be applied to other departments within the command at a later date.

01513 All Functionality Warehouse SPECWARCOM Removed

Description
After user executes a 'my query', any time a filter is applied or changed within the grid, the 'my query' originally selected defaults back to the standard default grid view.

Recommended

  1. Allowing those using a 'my query' be able to apply different filters within their query to complete their current task at hand.
  2. When the user cancels out their filter do not allow the 'my query' to disappear and have the standard grid options reappear.

Mission Critical
Mission Critical - The user is having to stop what they were doing in order to get back to their saved query which is causing more time wasted rather then completing the task to meet their mission at hand.

Benefits
This will allow NSW Armories to maintain their current operational level of support with minimal impact to the amount of time it takes to complete their task.

Users
This currently applies to Armory users within NSW, but it is foreseeable that it could be applied to other departments within the command at a later date.

01512 Improve Unit Return Warehouse SPECWARCOM Done

Description
The Unit Return Search Criteria does not allow user to search by Item Description. Armory users may not have the stock number on hand or may have multiple of that item.

Recommended
Include the Intellisense Item Description field in the Search Criteria for users to during a Unit Return.

Mission Critical
Mission Critical - Accountability must be accomplished in accordance with current standards required by NAVSEASYSCOMINST 8370.2D and COMNAVSPECWARCOMINST 8020.2A. Maintenance assessments are required prior to SEAL/SB Team deployment. The IDTC time-line does not allow wholesale asset turn-in for maintenance. Assessments and repairs must be conducted while assets remain in SEAL/SWCC OICs/AOICs custody. Assessment results and repair parts usage must be documented when assets are not in the custody of the accountable armory.

Benefits

Completed – Release 2021.4 – 17 December 2021

01511 "Select All" Functionality Warehouse SPECWARCOM Done

Description
Allow user the ability to add their preferred Items per page within their 'My Queries'. Also, allow the ability to be able to 'Select All' as one "items per page" options.

Recommended

  1. Add option to default the number of assets viewed on one page within the Grid Options under "My Queries"
  2. Provide an option to "view all" assets within one page.

Mission Critical
Mission Critical - Being able to complete a task/process without having to spend mission essential time on loading pages of assets with the desired number of items per page.

Benefits
This will allow NSW Armories to maintain their current operational level of support with minimal impact to the amount of time it takes to complete their task. Commands have anywhere to 1,000-60,000 assets in their inventory. Being able to have the option to "view all" assets on one screen will cut their process time down dramatically in order to meet their mission. Having the option to have the number of items defaulted onto screen is another improvement with meeting their mission.

Users
This currently applies to Armory users within NSW, but it is foreseeable that it could be applied to other departments within the command at a later date.

01510 Improve Unit Return Warehouse SPECWARCOM Done

Description
During a Unit Return, the assets are populated and user has the option to arrange the column in ascending or descending alphabetical or numerical order. When selecting the serial number to arrange in order then selecting the stock number to arrange in order, the serial number reverts to previous setting of not being in order. DPAS should allow user to select primary and secondary sorting or simply sort by stock number then sub-sort by serial.

Recommended
Allow the sorting option to work similar to the way Microsoft Excel's column filter option operates. By first selecting the serial number column and arranging it in order, then selecting the nomenclature column to arrange in order. Which leaves the serial numbers still in order.

Mission Critical
Mission Critical - Accountability must be accomplished in accordance with current standards required by NAVSEASYSCOMINST 8370.2D and COMNAVSPECWARCOMINST 8020.2A.

01509 Improve Warehouse Activity Report Warehouse SPECWARCOM Removed

Description
Report LPWHR78 Warehouse Activity only captures the UIC. The account names are needed to identify what platoons the transactions were against. All transactions captured only contain unit's UIC and not the unit's name. Multiple units have the same UIC, creating accounts under the UIC were used to identify the platoons.

Recommended
List account name next to UIC for all transactions in the Warehouse Activity Report.

Mission Critical

01508 Gray-out Condition Code MU AF: VSCOS Removed

Description
Current, M&U ability to reflect conflicting status codes (i.e. NMC and Condition Code A) will cause readiness reporting problems for AF aviation Support Equipment.

Recommended
Gray-out the Condition Code drop-down for AF aviation SE users.

Mission Critical
This is mission critical.  Conflicting status codes are not permitted and will cause readiness questions, particularly with nuclear certified equipment being used in nuclear operations.

Benefits
Improves accuracy of status reporting of support equipment for AF readiness reporting and program office sustainment planning.  Eliminates questionable status for users of the equipment.

Users
Only certain users - those documenting maintenance on aviation support equipment.

01507 Add Sub-work-order State Code MU AF: VSCOS Removed

Description
Need option added to Sub-work order State Code that reflects work orders are closed, with discrepancies carried forward to a new work order. This is necessary if a discrepancy is found during an inspection and the inspection is completed. The discrepancy would be carried forward to a new job that includes only that discrepancy.

Recommended
Add "Closed, Carried Forward" option to Sub-work-order State Code drop down.

Mission Critical
This is mission critical.  Most SE cannot be used if overdue inspection - we need to be able to close the inspection work order when the inspection is complete.

Benefits
Improves accuracy of status reporting of support equipment for AF readiness reporting and program office sustainment planning.

Users
Only certain users - those documenting maintenance on aviation support equipment.
