ADC 176 

Revision to Requisition Format to Accommodate 

Commodity-Unique (Mapping Products) Data 

1. ORIGINATOR:

 a. Service/Agency: Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) J-6251 

 b. Sponsor: Supply Process Review Committee, Chair: Ellen Hilert, DLMSO 

J-6251, Defense Logistics Management Standards Office (DLMSO), 703-767-0676 (DSN 

427), ellen.hilert@dla.mil

2. FUNCTIONAL AREA: Supply 

3. REQUESTED CHANGE:

 Title: Revision to Requisition Format to Accommodate Commodity-Unique (Mapping 

Products) Data 

4. Description of Change: Before the Map Support Office Distribution System (MSODS) 

(SD7) receives a requisition from the Defense Automatic Addressing System Center 

(DAASC), it is first routed to the Defense Mapping Agency Automated Distribution 

Management System (DADMS) (HM8) for review. If the record meets all requirements, it is 

then sent to MSODS (SD7) through DAASC. If MSODS receives a requisition for the first 

time from DADMS (HM8) and MSODS determines they cannot fill the requisition it is sent 

back to DADMS to fill with "SD7" entered into positions 67-69. DADMS (HM8) uses the 

information in columns 67-69 to determine if MSODS (SD7) is going to receive this 

requisition for the first time, or if MSODS (SD7) is returning the requisition to DADMS 

(HM8). This will occur only for AO_ transactions (A01, A02, A04, A0A, A0B, A0D). If the 

information in columns 67-69 is not used correctly, requisitions could go back and forth 

between DADMS and MSODS with no one taking action. DADMS requisitions will not 

always use this field on requisitions. For example, if the MSO office is ordering a 

replenishment for themselves, this field will be empty. 

 a. Procedures: 

 (1) Revise DOD 4000.25-1-M, MILSTRIP, Appendix 3.2, Requisition, in accordance 

with (IAW) the following: 

FIELD LEGEND BLOCK NUMBER RECORD 

POSITION(S)

ENTRY AND 

INSTRUCTIONS 

Date of Receipt of 

Requisition4 5 

Block 23 67-69 Leave blank. 

4 Processing points passing DI AM_ transactions to another supply source for continued processing will 

enter the RI code in rp 67-69. 

5

 The Map Support Office Distribution System (MSODS) will enter the MSODS RI Code SD7 in A0_ 

transactions returned to Mapping Agency Automated Distribution Management System (DADMS) (HM8) 

for processing. This will indicate to DADMS that this is not the initial processing of the requisition 

(requisition was previously reviewed and forwarded to MSODS, which was unable to fulfill).
 (2) Change DLMS Supplement (DS) 511R as follows: 

Location DS 511R Revision Reason Federal 

IC 

Impact 

2/N101/180 Add new qualifier and DLMS note: 

ZL Party Passing the Transaction 

DLMS Note: Use only for map requisitions. Map 

Support Office Distribution System (MSODS) will 

enter the MSODS RI Code SD7 in requisitions 

returned to Mapping Agency Automated 

Distribution Management System (DADMS) (HM8) 

for processing. This will indicate to DADMS that 

this is not the initial processing of the requisition 

(requisition was previously reviewed and forwarded 

to MSODS, which was unable to fulfill).

To provide DADMS 

notification if the 

received requisition 

is the first request or 

if the received 

requisition was 

previously sent to 

DADMS. 

No impact. 

 

 b. Alternatives: None identified. 

4. REASON FOR CHANGE: To provide DADMS notification if the received requisition 

is the first request or if the received requisition was previously sent to DADMS. This will 

prevent DADMS from resending the requisition to MSODS to fill. MSODS includes their 

RIC so DADMS will understand that MSODS was unable to satisfy the requisition received 

from DADMS. The presence of the RIC SD7 in the requisition is a denial mechanism for the 

DADMS/MSODS interface. 

5. ADVANTAGES and DISADVANTAGES:

 a. Advantages: This change will ensure the DLA DADMS translator maintains 

accurately maps. 

 b. Disadvantages: None known 

6. IMPACT: 

 a. MILSTRIP Appendix AP3.2, Requisition 

b. DLMS, DS 511R revision to accommodate commodity-unique data elements 

c. Perpetuate to DLMS XML and any non-standard XML formats.
