Guidance as to where and how to save these credentials are available at the User Profile help page. These credentials should be saved and stored in investigator’s profiles. NIH or NSF credentials are required of the investigators for federal S2S submissions. Where do I store my sponsor credentials for System-to-System (S2S) submissions? However, a detailed budget must still be completed in the eTRACS proposal and there is no guarantee that the calculations in the ORA Budget Spreadsheet will match exactly with the calculations in eTRACS – due to a slight difference how eTRACS calculates fringe based on the project period dates, base salary of each personnel coming in from Banner, and how the inflation rate is applied. The budget can also be exported to an excel spreadsheet to share outside of eTRACS, as necessary.Ī simplified version of the ORA Budget Spreadsheet will be available during this time of transition. These individuals may access the proposal and see the budget at any time during development, routing and post-submission. The eTRACS proposal record, once created, is visible to Chairs, ADRs and any other named personnel on the project. How will I share my budget with my Chair, ADR or collaborators? The custom F&A rate must be re-applied every time a change is made to the budget. Type in the custom F&A amount and click Apply. On the F&A tab choose “Manual” in the Rate drop down menu. In the budget pop out there is an F&A tab. How do I apply a custom F&A rate in eTRACS?

An F&A tab where the F&A rate is entered will also automate a Modified Total Direct Cost (MTDC) calculation, but has capabilities for custom F&A exclusions and rates, if needed. Personnel and non-personnel budget categories are available for entry. How will budget development be different in eTRACS?Ī detailed budget development tab is required to be completed in each proposal. The final review can not be started until the pre-review route has completed. The proposal can continue to be developed while the pre-review is routing. If any of the questions are answered yes, the pre-review route will be directed to all applicable parties that need to approve the given information. If the answer to every question is “no,” the route will end instantaneously and send the PI an email notification. Even if the answer to every question is “no,” the route must be started. (1) Is there cost-share? (2) Will you be waiving or applying a reduced F&A rate? (3) Will you be applying the off-campus F&A rate? After answering those questions, and any follow-up questions that populate, you must navigate to the “Pre-Review Route & Attachments” tab and start the pre-review route by clicking on the thumbs up icon. Within the eTRACS proposal there is a Pre-Review questions tab with 3 questions. eTRACS will pick up the updated address from Banner the following business day.

If your address is missing information, like the 4 digit extension to your zip code, then your office address must be updated in Banner Self Service.

Why do I always have to update my address in System-to-System proposals? On that tab you can add, remove and edit budget period dates. In the budget pop-out window there is a “Setup” tab. How to I change my budget periods in the budget? eTRACS requires that the Equipment be uploaded separately from Facilities and Other Resources on the “Other Project Info” tab of the proposal. In Fastlane, equipment was always included in the Facilities, Equipment and Other Resources upload. Prior to eTRACS System-to-System submissions, all NSF proposals were submitted through Fastlane. Why is there an option to attach an equipment file for NSF System-to-System proposals? That entry triggers a report to the eTRACS team who will add the sponsor and update your proposal sponsor. In the sponsor field, if you type a portion of the sponsor name and nothing populates, then use “Default Sponsor.” Later in the proposal the developer will be asked to enter in the sponsor name.
