Security Assistance Management Manual E-Change 786
Additional Foreign Military Sales Case Classifier within the Defense Security Assistance Management System

1. Update SAMM Section C16.2.12.2.:

   From:

   C16.2.12.2. Supply/Services Complete Status Application. Once the conditions for SSC are reached, lines and/or cases shall be coded by the IA with this status and the actual date of SSC within five (5) business days in Socium and the appropriate security cooperation (SC) information management systems. This coding shall not be delayed under any circumstance. The management of blanket order case/line items is generally conducted based on their value. Therefore, the application of SSC status on blanket order cases and/or lines may be accomplished based on the amount of unused value, when appropriate, rather than the absence of open orders, in addition to the purchaser's concurrence that no further activity will occur. The reconciliation condition of data (other than that which is preventing item delivery or actual completion of services), the allocation of resources (funding and/or manpower), or the distribution/transfer of workload has no application in determining when supply/services completion occurs. To the extent possible, the SSC status of lines and sublines should be coded in the Defense Security Assistance Management System (DSAMS) as either completed (CMPLTD) or shipped (SHPD).

As cases enter SSC, the DSCA (OBO/FPRE) Country Finance Director (CFD) will post the CLOSHOLD milestone in DSAMS to prevent the creation of new amendments, modifications, and/or revisions to the case. Should an IA identify the need to process an amendment or modification to a case with the CLOSHOLD milestone, in support of final reconciliation for closure, the IA must request the temporary removal of the milestone. The request, including a detailed justification for the amendment or modification, must be submitted to DSCA. The DSCA CFD will review the request and, upon approval, will temporarily remove the milestone to allow for the required case action, after which time the milestone will be reapplied to continue the closure process.

2. Update SAMM Section AP7.C2.13.2.:

   From:

   AP7.C2.13.2. Supply/Services Complete Coding. Once the conditions for SSC are reached, lines and/or cases are coded by the IA with this status and the actual date of SSC within 5 business days in the appropriate security cooperation information management systems. To the extent possible, the SSC status of lines and sublines should be coded in the Defense Security Assistance Management System (DSAMS) as either completed (CMPLTD) or shipped (SHPD) as another means of informing the purchaser of general order status. For a document in development, the SSC status can be updated by placing the line or subline in an 'edit' status and selecting one of the options from the pick list. The SSC status can also be updated on the "I" version using the restricted tools/update implemented case function.
