This is a required attachment. The link to add the attachment appears below the budget periods, and just before the Cumulative Budget section.
Note: For applications submitting a Data Management and Sharing Plan, include a brief Data Management and Sharing Justification.
For information on file naming and uploading attachments, see the eGC1 and Grant Runner Attachments article.
This optional form allows you to enter data about your modular budget. The Modular Grant application does not require a categorical breakdown of direct costs requested in the application; however, other requirements still apply. Review the application directions for specific modular instructions.
For more information about the use of Modular Budgets, view the NIH Modular Research Grant Applications page.
When you click Add New Budget Periods an accordion will open for you to enter the data for the period.
The system pre-populates the Budget Period Start and End Dates based on your project dates. You can change the values.
For each budget period you will need to enter the following data:
If you need additional entries for Indirect Costs, use the Add New B. Indirect Costs button to create another data entry row.
See GIM 13 Facilities and Administrative (F&A) Rates for more information.
You can click Collapse to close the accordion at any time.
The periods you entered will display on the page with dates and total values. The last row of the table will display the overall totals.
To Make Changes: Click on the Expand link to make changes to the data entered.
To Remove a Period: Use the Delete link to remove the period from the list.
The system calculates the values for this section. You can expand the section accordion to review the values.
The budget justification is an important section in any proposal. Use it to state why an item costs what it does, and to indicate how each item relates to the research plan. Be sure to provide sufficiently detailed information to address all sponsor concerns with respect to cost and need. In general, explanations should be more detailed for competing than for non-competing applications (Include project salary, percent effort, fringe benefits, travel, supplies, analyses, equipment, F&A rate and unallowable costs.)
You can add attachments for Personnel Justification, Consortium Justification and Additional Narrative Justification. Consult your sponsor instructions to determine which of these you might want to add.
In the Consortium Justification, list the individuals and/or organizations with whom you have (or will) make consortium or contractual arrangements, the percent of effort of key personnel and their role on the project, and indicate whether the collaborating organization is foreign or domestic. If you propose a contract/consortium arrangement, include a letter of commitment or intent.
Note: For NIH applications submitting a Data Management and Sharing Plan, Data Management, Sharing Costs and a brief Data Management and Sharing Justification must be provided as part of the Additional Narrative Justification
The following image shows the attachments section:
Note: If you connect a SAGE Budget to your Grant Runner application when using the RR Detailed Budget, the system will automatically add periods and data to the RR Detailed Budget form. The form will become read-only, except for the link to add the Budget Justification attachment. In addition, a link to the Sponsor Budget Map page will appear on the left navigation menu. The Sponsor Budget Map shows how your SAGE Budget data flows into the RR Detailed Budget form.

You can add up to a maximum of 10 items. Once the maximum is reached, the Add New Equipment button is no longer selectable. A link to add an attachment, summarizing any additional equipment costs, will appear. The attachment is not required.
If you do add the attachment, then you must enter the total costs of the equipment described in the attachment.
Use this section to enter domestic or foreign travel costs, if any.
The Total Travel Cost field is automatically calculated for you.
Use this section to enter any costs related to participant and/or trainee support. Be sure to enter the Number of Participants/Trainees following the totals line.
Note: You must enter both a description and the dollar amount if you use the Other (specify) row.
The Total Participants/Trainee Support Costs field is automatically calculated for you.
Use this section to enter in any other direct costs for your proposal. You can include up to 10 custom descriptions with values. If you add a description, you must enter a value. Similarly, if you add a value, you must enter a description.
Note: For applications submitting a Data Management and Sharing Plan, Data Management and Sharing Costs must be noted as a single line item.
The Total Other Direct Costs value is automatically calculated for you.
The following image shows this section:
This section displays the calculated total for sections A through F.
By default, a new budget period will include one blank Indirect Cost row. OSP requires at least one set of data.
If you need to add additional rows, select the Add New Indirect Cost button. You may add up to a maximum of 4 indirect costs. Once the maximum is reached, the Add New Indirect Cost button is no longer selectable.
Each row includes a Delete link at the far right which will completely remove the row and all of its data values.
The Total Indirect Costs field is automatically calculated for you.
This section displays the calculated total for all direct (Section G) and indirect (Section H) costs for this budget period.
This section displays the entered value for any fees associated with this budget period.
