code  must  be  “WQ”  (awaiting  parts)  to  release documents from AWP. Conversation  code  N648  is  used  to  perform transpose  actions  (AWP  cannibalization)  of  repair  parts from an AWP component to another. Conversation  code  N649  is  used  to  update  or identify AWP location of a component. Conversation  code  N680  displays  information concerning  the  status  of  a  particular  component  and  its material requirement. Other  conversation  codes  used  by  AWP  personnel are  N605,  N607,  N608,  N609,  N611,  N612,  N613, N615, N668, N669, N670, N675, or N679. Refer to the NALCOMIS User’s Manual for detailed information about these conversation codes. INTER-IMA SUPPORT Instances will occur where a repairable item, which is beyond the capability of the local IMA, is shipped to an off-station IMA for repair and return. The procedures for the repair and return program are in two parts. It consist of procedures for the shipping activity and the receiving  activity. The  shipping  activity  will  process  defective  items for repair and return as follows: l SSU receives the defective item with a new MAF (or facsimile) from the work center. The JCN and other data on the MAF (or facsimile) must be the same as in the  original  MAF. NOTE: Jointly, AMSU and AWP will prepare the new  MAF  (or  facsimile). .  DCU  removes  the  corresponding  copy  of  the MAF  (or  facsimile)  from  the  induction  return  due  file and completes the Material Data block. The DCU will forward  the  completed  copy  of  the  MAF  (or  facsimile) to  DSF  for  3-M  processing. . Supply ships the defective item, new MAF (or facsimile), copy of original MAF (or facsimile), and the DD Form 1348-1 according to local procedures. Attach all   applicable   records,   log   books,   SRC,   or   other associated documents with the item. Retain one copy of DD Form 1348-1 for tracking the shipment. The  receiving  activity  uses  local  procedures  in processing receipts of items for repair and return. The item should have with it the new MAF (or facsimile), a copy of the original MAF (or facsimile), associated logs and  records,  and  DD  Form  1348-1.  The  following procedures for processing the items apply: .  ASD/SSC  receives  the  items,  new  MAF  (or facsimile),  copy  of  the  original  MAF  (or  facsimile), associated logs and records, and DD Form 1348-1. l  ASD/SSC  delivers  the  defective  items  and associated  documents  to  AMSU  for  induction.  Files  the new MAF copy (or facsimile) in the induction return due file. . After completion of the maintenance action, SSU receives the item, a copy of the new MAF (or facsimile), and associated documents from AMSU. l  DCU  completes  the  MAF  copy  (or  facsimile) from the induction return due file and sends it to DSF for  3-M  processing. l The supporting supply will ship the items, a copy of  the  new  MAF  (or  facsimile),  associated  documents, and  the  DD  Form  1348-1  according  to  local  procedures. The  NALCOMIS  activities  use  conversation  code N271 to induct items for inter-IMA repair. Upon return of  the  component  from  the  inter-IMA  repair, NALCOMIS  activities  use  conversation  code  N641  to process the item. All other conversation codes used for processing the item during the repair cycle are the same as AMSU and CCS use. DEPOT  CUSTOMER SERVICE REQUEST The  ASD/SSC  initiates  customer  service  requests (OPNAV 4790/36A) that are not initiated by IMA. The IMA requests are limited to services not requiring repair of repairable item. ASD/SSC will initiate a request if one of the following  conditions  exists: Outstanding   NMCS/PMCS/work   stoppage requisitions  exist. The unserviceable item requires depot check. Supply  system  asset  status  indicates test or that a replacement is not now available. ASD/SSC  is  responsible  for  the  following: .  Preparing  a  funded  OPNAV  4790/36A. . Transporting material for customer service to and from  the  depot  via  traceable  means. 9-19
