New Features in SAGE

Budget period naming conventions have been enhanced to include the most common period names.
Budgets built in SAGE can now be connected to an eGC1, so that any updates made to the budget automatically display on the budget page of the connected eGC1.
Budgets in SAGE route with connected eGC1 and anybody with access to eGC1 can also access the budget.
Fiscally responsible departments can now be specified on the setup screen for sub budgets.
New Budget Edit Numbers in the Budget History enable users to see when a budget has been revised and to read comments associated with those changes.
OSP Administrator/Coordinator Now Has Read Access to Budgets built in SAGE.
SAGE saves all changes to budget and assigns a unique Budget Edit number and timestamp to versions created at critical points in workflow, e.g. at submission or approval.
Users can access a read-only view of a budget at a specific point in time from the Budget History and copy, print, or export it to Excel.
Users can access an Excel version of a connected budget from the eGC1 Attachments page under Connected Budget Data.
Users with the appropriate permissions can view or withdraw the eGC1 and budget from the Budget History tab.
Ability to define lines that automatically adjust their amounts to make selected total match target amount
Ability to enable/disable fixed fee on APL budgets
Added ability to modify Administrative and Pre-Award Budget contacts regardless of eGC1 status
Budget title field width reduced to better match maximum characters allowed
Default Fixed Fee Rate updated to 5.7% for new APL budgets
