8. Step 1: Plan and Organize Scheduling Recommendation to develop an inventory schedule Start with Custodian/RO departure list Plan to begin inventory 20 days out from change of Custodian Take into account Change of Command timing

9. Step 2: Open an ICN Open a separate ICN for each Customer you are inventorying Opening an ICN will “lock” your equipment records so that no transfers can be completed outside of the inventory in that Department All items must be inventoried, transferred, or removed from DMLSS before the ICN can be completed

10. Step 3: Print the Custodian Receipt/Location list in DMLSS Print each customer individually Easiest method is to sort by ECN

11. Step 4: Conduct Physical Inventory Teams should be selected and trained per your command’s inventory plan Inventory teams must contain at least one member from outside the department EM should oversee the physical inventory, but does not need to physically perform the inventory

12. Step 5: Reconciliation Complete all Transfers, Gains, and Losses Reconciliation valuation information: ECN. Nomenclature of equipment. Manufacturer's Serial Number. Manufacturer’s Nameplate Model. Manufacturer’s Model Number. (Common Model) Acquisition Cost. Custodian Name. Location. (Update Permanent Location)

14. Enter the Room location where the item was found, inventory date, and who the inventory was performed by. Click “OK.” You should see a “Y” appear next to that ECN on the “Inv.” column. Once you have inventoried all items that were found, click the “Reconcile” Button Items can be added from other departments using the “Add” button

18. Monthly 10% Inventories Create an inventory plan for the year Take into account Change-of-Custodian timing Complete a wall to wall of 10% of your Customers each month If you have 40 separate customers, plan to inventory 4 each month Inform departments prior to inventory Open separate ICN by Customer ID

19. Cyclical inventory strategy is the way ahead  Ex. 10% inventory by department Claimancy-wide triennial inventory is history Annual Inventory Requirements

20. Periodic (Wall-to-wall)  Change-of-Command  Change of Equipment Manager  Grossly inaccurate inventory Annual Inventory Requirements

21. Annual  Capital Equipment  Classified and sensitive  On Loan  Leased  Government Furnished Equipment (GFE)  Inventory past due (last inventory 3 years ago)
