Related Advance Budget Requests

If an application has a related advance request, you will see an information box on its child Funding Action that states, “This funding action has a parent eGC1 with advances in which cost share and non-fiscal compliance responses may have been updated.”

The following image shows an example of this.

The information box will include a link to the related advance, as well as the status and date. If additional advances were processed in the last ~18 months of the award cycle, they will also be listed in the information box. To determine which advance is related to the funding action, hover over the Cycle Details tab, or click View Cycle Details.

NOTE: Any advances that exceed the maximum duration of 18 months will not appear in the funding action information box. The advance will, however, continue to display in the Cycle Details.

Click the ADV# link within the funding action information box. The SAGE Advance Budget request will open in a new tab. You will have view-only access. By default, the Request Summary page will be open. Scroll down to the Cost Share and Non-Fiscal Compliance sections to view the latest information, as shown in the following image.

May 5, 2013

  • OSP Notes for returning an item to GCA will be a required field.
  • A new date can be added to the tasklist called assigned to date. This will allow you to track when new items are added to your list.
  • Only users with the Subcontracts Role will be able to create a subcontract shell. General users will no longer be able to add a subcontract shell within an FA.
  • Subcontracts formerly assigned to Verenice Bendana (Barbosa) and Judy Yoshioka will be moved to e-shelf.
  • One additional question has been added to the eGC1 Security Compliance Questions. Approval workflow was added for Security Review when the preparer answers “Yes” to the new question. An automatic hold will apply when the preparer answers “Yes” to any of the Security questions. The new workflow process will apply to only newly created eGC1s at the time of release.
  • Budget number and prior budget number field validation has been placed to allow only numeric and dash in these fields.
  • Advance Budget Request will always be blocked until OSP allows the Advance Budget Request to go through. GIM updates, process updates and procedures are still being vetted.

Planned Bug Fixes:

  • The error message color block for Subcontracts page validation will be corrected to fully cover all the error text in color.
  • Status Checker will no longer display HTML code.
  • Pending Sponsor and Pending Flow Through Sponsor will not be allowed on approval of Applications or FA’s.
