88. Common Mistakes on DA Form 5988-E

89. Make sure the date and UIC are correct.
DA Form 5988-E
Make sure the date and UIC are correct.
When you get your DA Form 5988-E from the ULLS-G clerk, make sure that you have the correct unit. Sometimes motor pools take care of several unit’s data. This way, the changes you make will affect the correct weapon.

90. Make sure you have the correct weapon.
DA Form 5988-E
Make sure you have the correct weapon.
You have to ensure that you have the correct weapon. This is why every weapon must have a unique admin number, and is associated with the correct serial number.

91. Make sure you have the correct service.
DA Form 5988-E
Make sure you have the correct service.
Make sure that the service entered in ULLS-G is the correct service for the type of weapon. ‘Q’ for Quarterly services, ‘A’ for annual gauging.

92. DA Form 5988-E
Make sure you have the correct publications with current changes and dates.
You have to have the correct publications and the most current changes to perform PMCS. Are you trying to perform PMCS with a ‘HR’ Hand Receipt? Or may a LO? How about an MWO?

93. Fault and item number should match when parts are ordered.
DA Form 5988-E
Fault and item number should match when parts are ordered.
Once the armorer fills out the DA Form 5988-E with the correct status symbol, item NSN, and quantity, the ULLS-G clerk will enter the data into ULLS-G. ULLS-G will assign the next sequence number to the fault and will link the fault to the part requested. These item numbers will not be in the same sequence as the TM item number. Don’t order parts that are not your level of repair. The parts will probably be cancelled and the unit will be charged for them regardless. Watch the SMR code for the parts. Order only what is your level of repair or replacement.

94. Parts Received, Not Installed
DA Form 5988-E
Parts Received, Not Installed
Parts are received by the PLL clerk, but are not installed, or faults are not removed from the DA Form 5988-E. Wrong quantity of items ordered. Don’t order more then what is authorized by the TM for the repair of the component. Service parts may be ordered in advance, but ordered by weapon admin number. Bulk ordering is not permitted.

95. Priority Abuse, Equipment Not NMCS
DA Form 5988-E
Priority Abuse, Equipment Not NMCS
Parts are ordered on the wrong priority, or high priority requests are not listed as NMCS. Parts must be ordered IAW DA PAM , Chapter 2, para 2-2.
