Notification to be sent instructing SO and PI to log on to the Commons and view warnings and the assembled application

Subject line: <Grants.gov Tracking #>/<PI name>: Check Assembled Application in eRA Commons – Warnings Only

Body of e-mail:

NIH has received the grant application titled  <project title> for PI <PI name> with Grants.gov Tracking # <tracking number> and has placed the assembled application in the eRA Commons for your review.

Our systems identified warnings.  Verify your application complies with funding opportunity announcement and application guide requirements.

Next steps:

1. View your assembled application image in eRA Commons (PI instructions, AOR/SO instructions).
   
   You have a two business day application viewing window to check your application for assembly issues before it automatically moves forward to NIH staff for further processing and consideration. This window does not extend the submission deadline.
   
   Changed/corrected applications overwrite previous submissions and if submitted AFTER the submission deadline will be subject to the NIH Late Policy and may not be accepted.
    
2. Determine if changes are needed.
   
   It is your responsibility to view the entire assembled application in eRA Commons and notify the eRA Service Desk within this window if the assembled application does not correctly reflect information submitted to Grants.gov (e.g., submitted information is missing in image, graph/chart appears upside-down).

• Everything looks good: No additional action needed.
• Changes needed/desired: If before the due date and within the viewing window, a signing official (SO) can reject the application and submit a changed/corrected application.
