| 15135 | “Domestic or Foreign Entity” is currently a required field on all contract modifications. | A software fix shall be performed so that the data element, “Domestic or Foreign Entity,” is no longer required on contract modifications. The value of “Domestic or Foreign Entity” shall propagate from the Base record to all subsequent modifications.
The two scenarios which are exceptions to this fix are listed below. The value for “Domestic or Foreign Entity” shall still be required on these modifications. • Modifications where the “Reason for Modification” selected is ‘Novation Agreement.’ • New Base modifications following a ‘Transfer Action’ modification. |

| 20089 | FPDS is incorrectly checking the validity of Product or Service Codes (PSC) 1830 and 1850 on a modification. | The validity of the PSC shall not be checked on modifications as the data is propagated from the base document. | No |
| 20221 | Mandatory rule on the “Modification Number” is firing on the Change PIID Modification when it is the first modification after a Transfer between DoD agencies and from Civilian Agencies to DoD. | After the transfer from a civilian agency to DoD, if DoD creates the Change PIID action with an invalid PIID, “Save Draft” fires the pertinent rule, but “Validate” fires the rule that the “Modification Number” is not present. However, the “Modification Number” is present in document
The rules will be modified to fire correctly when Validate is selected on records that have been transferred between Civilian Agency and DoD and transfers within DOD. This is not happening on a Change PIID that has not been transferred. |
