The system provides a feature that allows users to upload source documentation needed to work a case and provide an audit trail. It is designed to handle both manual and electronic input files, these files are processed by MILPAYOPS each business day. 3. Issue 210402. DWOWS Upgrade. As announced in REF A, DWOWS was upgraded to version RLSE21.01.00 the weekend of January 23-24, 2021. The new User Guide is located within DWOWS System Home Page, listing all the new upgrades. All Navy DWOWS users should acquaint themselves with the changes made in this upgrade release. 4. Issue 210403. Common Error Reported. Since the upgrade a common, critical error reported is when users create a new DWOWS case; a. Make sure to select correct CASE TYPE. 1.For example, DFAS is seeing cases in which the CASE TYPE is set for ACCESSION and the request is for bonuses, separation and other type of cases. With this New DWOWS System upgrade, if used properly, it will reduce the amount of referrals, thus reducing the turnaround time for completion. b. DWOWS System will not automatically changed the CASE TYPE, users most change it based on the type of request being sent. c. When adding a case and the case type that they are trying to submit is not in the drop down menu, then the user needs to change the System Type and look for the Case Type under the System that it has been assigned to. 5.
