You can apply two or more F&A rates to your budget by using subaward worksheets. Include all the items to which the standard F&A rate applies in your primary worksheet (main budget).

Why is my budget in read-only mode, when I have read-write access?

There are several reasons your budget might be in read-only mode:

  • If you opened an older version of your budget from Budget History, it will be read-only.
  • Your budget may be linked to an eGC1 that is routing, in which case it is not editable. You can verify this by checking the budget status from the History tab of your budget.
