Revisions to DLM 4000.25, Chapter 8 Materiel Obligation 

Validation

Make the following administrative changes to DLM 4000.25, Volume 2, Chapter 8:

C8.1. SUPPORT OF UNITED STATES FORCES

C8.1.1. General

C8.1.1.1. Purpose. This chapter prescribes policies and procedures for the 

validation by organizations of the continuing need for over age requisitioned 

requirements and for the reconciliation of source of supply materiel/obligation records 

with the due-in records of requisitioning activities. The materiel obligation validation 

(MOV) process is twofold: (1) validation of need; and (2) reconciliation of records.

C8.1.1.2. Materiel Obligation Definition. A materiel obligation is that unfilled 

portion of a requisition (for a stocked or nonstocked item) that is not immediately 

available for issue but is recorded as a commitment for future issue, either by direct 

vendor delivery (DVD) or backordered from stock. This includes both NSN and nonNSN items. MOV pertains to those requisitioned items assigned Status Code BB, BC, 

BD, BP4 BV, or BZ. DVD requisitions assigned Status Code BV or BZ are excluded 

from the automatic MOV cancellation process; however, organizations must submit 

requisition cancellations for materiel no longer required. See Chapter 4 for the 

requisition cancellation procedures.

C8.1.1.5.5. Materiel Obligation Validation Reinstatement is DLMS 

517M with Transaction Type Code AW – Material Obligation Reinstatement. This 

transaction provides the functionality of MILSTRIP DIC APR.

C8.1.1 36.1. MOV Notification. 

C8.1.1.6.1. Sources of supply must provide an MOV notification of 

nonresponse to organizations for each nonresponse to an MOV cycle for requisitions 

assigned Status Code BZ. The organization must conduct an item-by-item review and 

respond with a requisition cancellation if the materiel is not required.

C8.1.1.6.2. Materiel Obligation Validation Notification of 

Nonresponse is DLMS 517M with Transaction Type Code AN – Material Obligation 
Enclosure 3, ADC 1322

Page 3

Inquiry and Action Code RU – Return (backordered materiel in pre-award (BZ)

status.

C8.1.1. 47. Source of Supply Definition. A source of supply is defined as the 

DoD Component organization that maintains materiel obligation records, and includes, 

but is not limited to, those organizations commonly referred to as inventory control 

points (ICP), integrated materiel mangers (IMM), requisition processing points, stock 

control activities (SCA), and stock points.

C8.1.1. 58. Organization Definition. An organization is defined as a 

requisitioner, control office, and/or monitoring activity having the responsibility to 

validate and/or reconcile materiel obligation records between the requisitioning activity 

and the source of supply requesting the validation.

C8.1.2. Materiel Obligation Reinstatement Request. This is a request by an 

organization to reinstate requisition(s) previously canceled due to that organization's 

nonresponse to an MOV request. Use the DLMS 517M, to reinstate previously 

canceled requisition(s). Conformance with standard line of accounting 

(SLOA)/accounting classification requires any initiation of a financial business event to 

include SLOA mandated standard financial information system (SFIS) elements.5 The 

DLMS requisition reinstatement transaction supports inclusion of SLOA required 

elements. Pending full implementation of SLOA, DAAS will facilitate interoperability by 

updating selected SLOA data fields based upon the requisitioner's Service/Agency and 

Fund Code. If discrete values for the SLOA data elements in the transaction do not 

match data elements from the SFIS Fund Code to Fund Account Conversion Table for 

the Fund Code in the transaction, reject with the DLMS 870S Supply Status citing 

Status Code CF. If invalid/missing fund code for Signal Code A, B, C, J, K, or L, reject 

with the DLMS 870S/DIC AE9 Supply Status citing Status Code CF.6

(intervening text not show)

C8.1.5.3. Quarterly Reporting. Each DoD Component must provide a quarterly 

consolidated report to the Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for LogisticsSupply 

Chain Integration (DASD(Logistics SCI)) using the Appendix 1 format. Submit this 

report within 30 calendar days after the close of each MOV cycle. This report is 

assigned Report Control Symbol (RCS) DD-A&SAT&L (Q)1064. The source of supply 

will review the history file, prior to preparing the report, for those transactions in which 

the quantity response was different from the quantity requested. This review will 

determine if the quantity difference resulted from a shipment, a cancellation, or if the 

requisitioner actually requested cancellation of the obligation. Only cancellations 

actually requested by the requisitioner using the MOV response are included in the 

MOV report. Do not report a difference in quantity resulting from any other cause 

and/or process.

C29. CHAPTER 29

RELEASE AND RECEIPT OF MATERIEL 

DD FORM 1348-1A

C29.1. GENERAL

C29.1.1. The Issue Release/Receipt Document, DD Form 1348-1A (or DD Form 

1348-2 with attached shipping label), and continuation page are prepared by the 

supply/shipping activity. These documents are used to select, pack, ship, and receive 

materiel. They are also used as a receipt transaction and/or to provide a means to 

automate the capture of data using automatic identification technology (AIT) devices. 

The DD Form 1348-1A (or DD Form 1348-2) is mandatory for all shipments to DoD 

customers, including foreign military sales (FMS) and contractors, from DoD and 

General Services Administration (GSA) shipping activities, except as noted in paragraph 

C29.3. Additionally, the continuation page is a mandatory document to assist the 

processing of serialized items (see Appendix 6.36).

C29.1.2. The DD Form 1348-1A (or DD Form 1348-2) may be manually or 

mechanically prepared and will contain data elements prescribed herein for the various 

types of transactions.

C29.1.3. Use of carbonless paper for a preprinted DD Form 1348-1A (or DD Form 

1348-2) is authorized at the option of the Service/Agency.

C29.1.4. Mechanically prepared DD Form 1348-1A (or DD Form 1348-2) must 

contain all required bar codes as outlined in C29.1.6 through C29.1.9 (and associated 

sub-paragraphs).

C29.1.5. For transfers to DLA Disposition Services Field Offices, at least one copy 

of DD Form 1348-1A (or DD Form 1348-2) must accompany the property and be in a 

legible, easy-to-read format.

C29.1.6. For the DD Form 1348-1A, see Appendices 6.25 through 6.29, Appendix 

6.31 and Appendix 6.35. There are two methods for generating the form:

C29.1.6.1. Preprinted form. Data entries will be made by automated printer, 

typewriter, or hand scribed.

C29.1.6.2. Non-preprinted form. When this method is used, the form and 

data are printed simultaneously and will contain the prescribed data elements.
Enclosure 5, ADC 1322

Page 2

C29.1.7. The preprinted DD Form 1348-1A is 8-1/2 inches long (side to side) and 

51/2 inches high (top to bottom). When printed on plain stock paper using laser, 

thermal transfer, ion disposition, cold fusion, or other nonimpact printers, the size may 

vary within a range of 7-3/4 to 9 inches long and 4 to 5 inches high (with one-sixth inch 

tolerance). When such print technology is used, the in-the-clear/human-readable data 

must be easily read and the AIT entries must be machine readable. Margins of onefourth inch and outside lines are preferred, but may be eliminated provided the DD form 

number remains readable. When printing three forms per 8-1/2- by 14-inch sheet of 

paper, the originator must shall ensure that the form, spacing, size, and data entered 

thereon are legible and capable of being interpreted by a Logistics Applications of 

Automated Marking and Reading Symbols (LOGMARS) scanning device.

C29.1.7.1 Block numbers are provided for data entry. Data to be entered in 

the data blocks are shown in Appendices 3.48 and 3.49. Block 27 will contain 

information facilitating item unique identification (IUID) in support of unique item tracking 

(UIT) and DoD supply policy in conjunction with the expanded content of the Portable 

Data File 417 (PDF417) two-dimensional (2D) bar code as illustrated in Appendices 

6.35 and 6.36. For a single item shipment, include the clear-text, concatenated/single 

value unique item identifier (UII). Phased/staggered implementation is authorized 

pending DoD-wide implementation of DoD policy for the application of IUID in supply 

processes. As an interim approach, identification of the item on the Issue 

Release/Receipt Document (IRRD) by serial number alone is authorized. Additional 

optional information may include the item manufacturer’s contractor and Government 

entity (CAGE) code, current part number, and batch/lot number. Block 27 will contain 

all additional data and in-the-clear text that may be required and is not shown elsewhere 

on the form. The in-the-clear text may be used with the AIT encoded information for 

those activities possessing bar coding capability. 

C29.1.7.2. The paper may be any color that provides a minimum bar code 

contrast as specified in International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and 

International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) (ISO/IEC) 15415, Information 

Technology - Automatic Identification and Data Capture Techniques - Bar Code Print 

Quality Test Specification – Two-dimensional Symbols and in ISO/IEC 15416, 

Information Technology – Automated Identification and Data Capture Techniques – Bar 

Code Symbology Specification – Linear Symbols.

C29.1.8. The Code 39 (three-of-nine) linear bar code, and PDF417 2D bar code, 

and Macro PDF417 2D bar code, as defined in ISO/IEC 16388 Information Technology 

– Automated Identification and Data Capture Techniques – Bar code symbology 

specifications – Code 39 and ISO/IEC 15438 Information Technology – Automated 

Identification and Data Capture Techniques – PDF417 2D bar code symbology 

specification, are established as the standard symbologies for the automated marking 

and reading of items of supply, equipment, materiel packs, and containers in logistics 

operations throughout the DoD. This symbology will be applied using MIL-STD-129

(latest revision), unless otherwise authorized. When Code 39 linear bar code symbols 

are printed on DD Form 1348-1A (or DD Form 1348-2), all record positions of data 

elements that will be encoded, will contain a bar code character even if the position was

data identifiers for the data elements.

C29.1.9.3. The continuation page will also contain Code 39 linear 

bar coding with the respective human-readable interpretation (i.e., clear text) for the 

included serial numbers to satisfy legacy system requirements.

C29.1.10. IRRD (DD 1348-1A or DD Form 1348-2) Continuation Page for 

Ammunition and Explosives (A&E). For shipment of items categorized as A&E, the 

responsible activity will prepare a continuation page to capture additional data elements 

required for A&E management /accountability and facilitate automatic data capture. 

The continuation page may be produced by AIT systems on the same page as the 

1348-1A if space permits, or separately.

C29.1.10.1. The continuation page will contain, at a minimum, the prescribed 

data elements outlined in Appendix 6.36 to include human-readable interpretation (i.e. 

clear text) data elements 28 through 42.

C29.1.10.2. In lieu of printing the PDF417 2D bar code in Block 27 of the DD 

Form 1348-1A, the continuation page may contain a single PDF417 2D bar code or 

multiple Macro PDF417 2D bar codes (as required by data volume) for the included 

data.
