• Description
  Change Request: 

  Process Improvement
  
  

  Description: 
  

  Manufacturer part number information is not automatically cataloged when its associated stock number is locally cataloged from an external system, requiring catalog managers manually load all desired part number information.
  
  

  Recommended: 

  When a stock number from an external system i.e. AEMM/FLIS/SOLMAN is cataloged locally within ELMS the system will automatically query and catalog any manufacturer part number records provided by the external source associated to the cataloged stock number.
  
  

  Mission Critical: 
  

  The ELMS Property Accountability application requires Mfr data to be associated with each Asset.  By systematically adding the mfr data, this improves user experience and reduces the level of effort to maintain catalog data.
  
  

  Benefits: 
  Automates the cataloging of external manufacturer part number information.
  
  

  Frequency: 

  Hourly
  
  

  Users:

  Having Mfr data available improves the experience for all users.  More specific, it reduces the effort of those that are responsible for cataloging items as they will no longer need to manually enter Mfr data when it is provided through an external catalog interface.
