Proposal Management: Import Investigators to Award Modification

Overview

The U-M Investigators page on Award Modification Worksheets includes the ability to import Award Change Request (ACR) or Proposal Approval Form (PAF) investigators. It displays different tables for tracking active and inactive investigators. Personnel information listed may include Date Activated on Award Record, Role, Sponsor Role, Senior/key, Date Deactiviated on Award Record, and Appointment. 
Notes 

  • PI & Project Team members can view the U-M Investigators page, but they do not have buttons available to update personnel or import investigators.
  • For ORSP, the MOD worksheet must be editable in order to update it.
