Overview Beginning with eRPM Release 5.2, Awards will have the ability to be "linked" by relating award records. Type 1 Example: Awards that do not necessarily share the same Sponsor Award Reference Number but for U-M purposes they represent the same work. The classic NIH example for this type is a competing renewal. Years 1-5 will be the first award. Years 6-10 would be funded as a second, independent award. In this case the two awards would be created independently with unique Award ID numbers. Each award will have its own award amounts and allocations.
Overview Beginning with eRPM Release 5.2, Awards will have the ability to be "linked" by relating award records. A Set Restricted Award Relationship activity is available to mark an Award in an "Active" State as a Type 2 Parent, meaning that it is eligible to have a sub-project award created off of it. Once an award is marked as a parent, then children subproject awards can be created from it. This is referred to as "Type 2" linking of awards.
