1. IPPS-A UPDATE: ASSIGNMENT DASHBOARD, SUPERVISOR ROLES, PAR PUSHBACK, NEW PAR, PCS ABSENCES, USER MANUAL AND RESOURCES. From COL Rebekah S. Lust, IPPS-A FMD Director: Teammates, We’ve had an incredibly productive month, and I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for your ongoing support in bringing important issues to our attention for resolution. The collaboration between our dedicated HR Professionals and the hardworking Soldiers in the field is truly invaluable to our success…. As we continue to make progress, I want to share with you some crucial updates, guidance, and resources:
a. ASSIGNMENT DASHBOARD IMPROVEMENTS. To address the timing out issue with the Assignment Dashboard and delivery of blank results, the team got to work on enhancements (visit the above link for specifics). Please give us your feedback.
b. SUPERVISOR ROLE/RESPONSIBILITIES. When it comes to Access Requests, Supervisors should understand what access they are approving, and be familiar with the corresponding roles within each subcategory. It is the responsibility of everyone in the supervisory chain to understand what we are approving.
c. PERSONNEL ACTION REQUEST (PAR) PUSHBACK CAPABILITY. Currently, the PAR pushback capability is working as intended. “Restart” sends the PAR back to the S1 Pool, and “Pushback” sends the PAR back to any member in an established routing chain. In a future release, we will add functionality to allow users in the routing chain to Pushback PARs to the originator. In the meantime, PAR changes/updates can be made in the S1 Pool or by cancelling and resubmitting the PAR.
d. NEW PROMOTION, DEMOTION, LATERAL APPOINTMENT PAR. IPPS-A has updated the promotion, demotion, and lateral appointment PAR types to function and feel like all the others. This update provides flexibility for future customization of the promotion, demotion, and lateral appointment PAR types. All Promotion PARs currently in the system, and not approved prior to 3 August 2024 at 1600 ET, must be resubmitted.
e. SELF SERVICE MEMBER ADD ABSENCE WORKFLOW. To give each user more options in routing their absence for approval, IPPS-A has restricted the addition of a Supervisor ID on the PAID Absences landing page.
f. PERMANENT CHANGE OF STATION (PCS) ABSENCE ISSUE. As some may know, there was an issue in IPPS-A when a Member, HR Pro, or Commander attempts to “Cancel” an 05-PCS EVENTS / 01-PCS Entries Absence Type/Reason when the related Assignment is blank. The Cancel action did not only cancel the 05-PCS EVENTS Absences, but also canceled other (unrelated) Absences on the Member’s record. The IPPS-A Team put in a fix on 19 July 2024. However, absences already in the system on 19 July 2024 could still potentially experience this issue. The attached (at above link) screenshot is an example of what to look for before cancelling an 05-PCS EVENTS Absence.
g. RESOURCES. HR Pros should join the Drive the Change channel on MS Teams to get the latest updates as well as New Release Training every Friday following a release.
