Someone who creates items in SAGE (eGC1s, Budgets, Advance Budget Requests) usually has a Proposal Preparer or Principal Investigator role. Campus approvers will typically have one of the reviewer roles: Division Reviewer, Department or Center Reviewer, Dean Reviewer, or Advance Reviewer. Compliance reviewers have distinct ASTRA roles.<\/p>\n<p>Campus approvers access items based on a combination of their role and the associated Cost Center. So a Dean Reviewer for the School of Medicine would be able to access only those eGC1s that include that unit and role combination on the approval flow. An Advance Reviewer would have access to Advance Budget Requests for their unit and role.<\/p>\n<p>To access the item you need to approve:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>In general\n<ul>\n<li>Open SAGE at <a href=\"http:\/\/sage.washington.edu\">http:\/\/sage.washington.edu<\/a> and select the <strong>Sign In<\/strong> button.
