August 2012 SAGE and FIDS Release

New Features

These changes were made as a result of introducing the new Financial Interest Disclosure System (FIDS) which integrates with SAGE.

On the eGC1 PI & Personnel page:

  • eGC1 Preparers can select Investigator status.
  • Disclosure notifications to investigators to complete a disclosure in FIDS can now be sent.
  • Each investigator’s SFI status will display based on the information in FIDS.
  • The PHS FCOI training status will display.
  • The FIDS disclosure status will display.
  • Changes may be made to the PI or personnel after the eGC1 has been approved by OSP.
  • The history of any post-approval PI or personnel changes will be displayed.

On the Certify & Route page:

  •  An eGC1 cannot be completed until all investigators have received disclosure notifications.
  • The Ready to Submit question cannot be answered as “Yes” until all investigators have completed their disclosures in FIDS.

May 2012 SAGE Maintenance Release

New Features

  • The Security and Export compliance questions have been revised, and a new one has been added concerning access to classified national security information. Answering “Yes” to the new question will generate a new Security Reviewer approver node on the approval graph.
  • The SAGE Budget export now contains data formatted to simplify data entry for the SF424 forms. You will find this information following the usual export data.
  • When adding an ad hoc approver or watcher, a new validation checks for any mismatch between the Role chosen and the level of the associated organization code.
  • When OSP marks an eGC1 as eligible for an Advance Budget Review, the eGC1 owners will automatically receive an email message.
  • When users look up personnel, the results will contain the employee identification number. This will allow users to quickly differentiate between personnel with similar names.
  • You may now delete an eGC1 sooner. You must have read/write access, it has been more than six months since the eGC1 has been completed, and the eGC1 is in Withdrawn or Returned status.

Fixes

  • If you create new budget and complete all of the steps until you reach the access page where you add and remove an admin/budget contact, you will see the full budget navigation instead of the wizard.
  • Hyphenated names now display properly.
  • Advance budget is marked as ineligible when a user copies an older eGC1.

April 2012 SAGE Release

New Features

  • Budget and eGC1 Preparers, formerly known as Creators, may be updated by anyone with Read/Write access. This allows you control who gets notifications for an eGC1.
  • Users can enter or update access information once, and it will display on the centralized access page shared by both an eGC1 and its connected SAGE Budget.
  • Users with global edit access for an eGC1 will also have read/write access to the connected budget.

Fixes

  • A validation message will be displayed if a user attempts to add a person a second time on the eGC1 PI and Personnel page.
  • All new approval snapshots will be in PDF format; the HTML option has been removed.
  • Personnel from older eGC1s who showed up as duplicate owners will now be displayed once.
