o Will there be a current & pending report?o Some data clean-up is needed, but it is on the list of deferred items
o Will I still have the ability to edit, once it is marked complete in the activity guide?o Yes, activity guides provide guidance, but each step is still editable after marking complete
o What is the Review Proposal Budget link?o This is the ability to view all budget periods/projects in 1 page for a given proposal
o How will multi-disciplinary proposal work?o This will be a future change – the ability to see proposal data for all projects on a given
proposal, even if it’s outside your home department. Research Office will be testing & communicating how to do this
o Will there be access to PI salary?o This is a wish list item and will hopefully be available in the future
o What does the ‘submit’ button in the activity guide do?o The submit button marks the activity guide as complete
o Will the LAM update automatically?o No, HR payroll is out of scope for this upgrade
