$TXT Created by BECKWITH,RALPH at MNTVBB.FO-WASH.MED.VA.GOV (KIDS) on Wednesday, 01/23/08 at 13:29 ============================================================================= Run Date: MAR 18, 2008 Designation: PRC*5.1*114 Package : PRC - IFCAP Priority: Mandatory Version : 5.1 SEQ #96 Status: Released Compliance Date: APR 18, 2008 ============================================================================= Associated patches: (v)PRC*5.1*63 <<= must be installed BEFORE `PRC*5.1*114' Subject: NEW FSC CODE;VENDOR PRODUCT NUMBER IN RFQ;HISTORY OF RECEIVING REPORTS Category: - Routine - Other Description: ============ 1. Involves the addition of a new Federal Supply Classification (FSC) Code to the FEDERAL SUPPLY CLASSIFICATION (#441.2) file. 2. A correction to an improper reference to the Vendor Product Number during the transmission of the Electronic Request for Quotation (RFQ). 3. A new option Purge All Code Sheets [PRCHPM CS PURGE ALL] was created to clean out all record types in the CALM/LOG CODE SHEET (#423) file and CALM/LOG TRANSMISSION RECORD (#421.2) file for a given time frame. This is needed to clean up old data. Also, the following printer assignment note was added: **YOU MUST SELECT A DESIGNATED PRINTER FOR PURGE TO FUNCTION PROPERLY. ** DEFAULTING TO HOME DEVICE (0) WILL NOT PURGE DATA SINCE THE OPTION ** WILL BE TASKED. ASSOCIATED REMEDY TICKETS: ========================= 1. HD55333 FSC CODE TO BE ADDED TO FILE 2. HD55337 VENDOR PRODUCT # NOT SEEN IN ELECTRONIC RFQ 3. HD122874 History of Receiving Reports Inaccurate ASSOCIATED NSR(s): ================= N/A PARTICIPATING TEST SITES: ========================= Central Plains HCS Muskogee, OK REMEDY OVERVIEW: =============== 1. HD55333 FSC CODE TO BE ADDED TO FILE Problem: ---------- Missing a Federal Supply Classification from the FEDERAL SUPPLY CLASSIFICATION (#441.2) file. Resolution: ------------- Add the new FSC 4235 to FEDERAL SUPPLY CLASSIFICATION (#441.2) file. 2. HD55337 VENDOR PRODUCT # NOT SEEN IN ELECTRONIC RFQ Problem: ---------- During the transmission of the Request For Quotation (RFQ) to Austin we are not sending the Vendor Product Number field. Resolution: ------------- The code that builds the RFQ has been changed to include the VENDOR PRODUCT NBR (#1) field from the RFQ LINE ITEM (#444.026) file which is a subfile of the REQUEST FOR QUOTATION (#444) file. 3. HD122874 History of Receiving Reports Inaccurate Problem: ---------- The problem is not with the report but with the data the report is trying to display. Certain records in the CALM/LOG CODE SHEET (#423) file have incorrect Release Validation Date/Time values. The year for the dates is 10 years off. The problem is these records do not get archived/purged and when new records with the exact same batch numbers are entered, it does not overwrite the existing record's Date/Time value. Resolution: ------------- There is an existing option (Purge Code Sheets (LOG/GSA/DLA) [PRCHPM CS PURGE]) that allows the user to purge the CALM/LOG CODE SHEET (#423) file for certain types of records. The code was modified to allow the purging of all record types in CALM/LOG CODE SHEET (#423) file and a new option Purge All Code Sheets [PRCHPM CS PURGE ALL] was created and attached to menu PRCHPM CS BATCH MANAGEMENT. The following code sheets will be purged: CLM, CLI, RR, LOG, DLA, PHA & GSA. Also, the following printer assignment note was added: ** YOU MUST SELECT A DESIGNATED PRINTER FOR PURGE TO FUNCTION PROPERLY. ** DEFAULTING TO HOME DEVICE (0) WILL NOT PURGE DATA SINCE THE OPTION ** WILL BE TASKED. Documentation Retrieval: ======================== The following IFCAP manuals were updated to reflect the addition of a new option Purge All Code Sheets [PRCHPM CS PURGE ALL] which was created to clean out all record types in the CALM/LOG CODE SHEET (#423) file and CALM/LOG TRANSMISSION RECORD (#421.2) file for a given time frame. The revised IFCAP manuals are available on the ANONYMOUS.SOFTWARE directories at one of the following Offices of Information (OI) Field Offices. These files need to be retrieved in binary format. Sites may retrieve documentation in one of the following ways: (1) The preferred method is to FTP the files from download.vista.med.va.gov, which will transmit the files from the first available FTP server. (2) Sites may also elect to retrieve documentation directly from a specific server as follows: Albany ftp.fo-albany.med.va.gov Hines ftp.fo-hines.med.va.gov Salt Lake City ftp.fo-slc.med.va.gov The documentation distribution includes: FILE NAMES DESCRIPTION FORMAT ========== =========== ====== ifcp5_1application_coord.pdf IFCAP Application BINARY Coordinator User's Guide V.5.1 User Manual ifcp5_1cp_official.pdf Control Point Official BINARY User's Guide V.5.1 User's Guide ifcp5_1security_guide.pdf PACKAGE SECURITY GUIDE BINARY V.5.1 Security Guide ifcp5_1tech_manual.pdf Technical Manual BINARY V.5.1 Technical Manual ================INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS ================= This patch can be installed with users on the system, however several options will need to be disabled (see step 4).
