SAGE Online Help System to Administer Grants Electronically

Certify, Complete and Print : Process Application - Composing, Withdrawn, Return Statuses

General Information

You are now ready to submit your application for routing. When you feel that your application is ready, click the "Complete" button. The system will run a validation check (i.e., Check for Errors) and will either present an error list or it will lock down the application and start the routing process. All errors must be corrected before the eGC1 can start the routing process.

These buttons may not work if you have pop-up blockers turned on. For information on how to configure your browser to allow pop-ups from SAGE, see Configuring your browser's pop up blocker (www.washington.edu/research/oris/sagehelp/egc1/popblock.html).

Fields

This table lists all the fields on the Process Application section of the Certify, Complete and Print screen of the eGC1.

Field Name Description More Info
Check for Errors Click this button to check that all required fields are entered and all business rules in this eGC1 are correct.  A list of errors will be displayed in a separate window.  As you correct errors on the eGC1, click "Save" on each screen to update the database, then click "Refresh" in the errors window to update the Error List.  Once all errors have been addressed, the eGC1 can be "Completed".  
View Entire Draft eGC1 (Printable) Click this button to preview or print the entire eGC1.  The printout will be labeled "DRAFT".  
 
Online Approval Process
 
Print Draft Routing Sheet

Click this button to preview or print the draft Routing Sheet. The printout will be labeled "DRAFT" and must not be used for routing purposes.

If paper documents will be submitted to campus reviewers and OSP, attach a copy of the final Routing Sheet to a copy of the application and provided to each of the units that will review.

The Routing Sheet content is determined by content on the eGC1: department and dean for the PI, personnel, organization code receiving funding, and some compliance questions. 

The Routing Sheet has 2 purposes:
1. Provide a link between the paper documents and the online record.
2. Provide a list of the units needing to approve this application. Checkboxes can be used to denote which copy is for which unit (replacing the need to handwrite the name of the unit on each copy for delivery).

 
View Draft Approval Graph

Click this button to view the Approval Workflow based on the current data on the eGC1. If the eGC1 data is modified in any manner, the Approval Graph may change. The Graph content is determined by data in the eGC1 - department and dean for the PI, personnel, organization code receiving funding, and some compliance questions - as well as the rules for each organization involved with this project.

 
Complete

Click this button to lock down the eGC1 for routing.  Only users with owner-level permissions or read-only access on this application may finalize.

SAGE will check required fields and business rules in the entire eGC1; if any errors are found, a list will be displayed in a separate window and must be corrected before the application can be completed.  Once all errors have been corrected, return to this screen and select "Complete" again to complete the process.

After the application has been successfully completed, it is "locked down" and no changes can be made.  The final version of the Routing Sheet can then be printed and used for routing if paper documents are being circulated.

If you need to edit a completed/lock-down eGC1, you must withdraw it, make changes and re-complete it. The "Withdraw" button will be located on the Certify-Finalize-Print page after an eGC1 has been completed.
