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.

August 2011 SAGE Maintenance Release

New Features

  • SAGE users will be required to select or specify an organizational code which ends in fewer than four zeros.
  • When an eGC1 with any EH&S compliance question answered “yes” is funded, EH&S will be notified.

Fixes

  • Fixed the PAC notifications so that all Pre-Award Budget Contacts, eGC1 Creators, and Administrative Contacts will now receive Post-Award Change (PAC) email notifications.
  • The F&A checkbox displays correctly when the F&A rates are customized at the period level in SAGE Budget.

July 2011 SAGE Release

New Features

  • New Grant Runner submission page shows all status information for Grant Runner Applications, including Grant Tracking Number, Sponsor Assigned Number, and History & Comments.
  • The “Application Documents Information” section now displays on the “Certify & Route” page.
  • The “Attachments & Routing Questions” page has been renamed “Attached Documents” and no longer includes routing questions.
  • The “Certify, Complete & Print” page has been renamed “Certify & Route”.

June 2011 SAGE Maintenance Release

Fixes

SAGE Budget: When a line item is deleted from the budget worksheet, the page refreshes to reflect the change. However, if a budget has Targets & Limits enabled, the F&A values displayed are not immediately updated. The next time the page is refreshed, the displayed F&A values will be correct, and the Total Project Costs will include the F&A change.

March 2011 SAGE Maintenance Release

The UW Box Number is Now a Required Field

When a user chooses the Organization Code Receiving Funding, the UW Box Number will be automatically populated. Users can still edit the field as needed.

The Total Costs (Direct + F&A) are calculated and displayed automatically by SAGE for the 1st Period and Total (All Periods).

e g c 1 total project costs section

You will need to list separately each institution subcontracting with the UW in this section. The object code for subcontracts is 03-62. This is displayed automatically by SAGE. (Do not include subcontract amounts in the 03 totals of the eGC1 Budget section above.)

E G C one subcontracts sectionNames must be unique; if listing more than one subcontract with the same institution, differentiate them (e.g., “UCLA 1”, “UCLA 2”). Calculate and enter the appropriate amounts for each subcontract.

Use the Add Subcontract link to save the current entry and add another row.

Use the Delete link to remove a row.

SAGE calculates and displays the Subcontracts Subtotal amounts based on the entries in the Subcontracts table. You will also see the subtotal of all subcontracts for the first budget period and the total for all budget periods.

See the financial system Object Codes, and GIM 7 Sponsored Program Subaward Administration for more details.

You can enter any other necessary Object Codes not listed in the eGC1 Budget section above or break out items by specific Object/Sub-Object Codes where desired. Common examples include office rent (03-80), in-patient care costs (03-27) and tuition and fees (03-19).

E G C one other object codes section

Enter the proper FAS Object Code or Sub-Object Code and description (see the financial system object codes list for options), and the appropriate amounts for the 1st Period and Total columns. Select Add Object Code to save the entry and add another row.

Use Delete on the far right to remove a row.

Do not list amounts in this section if you have already included them in any of the totals in the eGC1 Budget section above.

Pop-up windows are separate browser windows that open from a single web site. This can occur when the user clicks on a button or link within a web page, or when a web page automatically opens other windows.

SAGE uses pop-up windows, for example, on the eGC1 Certify & Route page to display eGC1 errors in a separate window, to display the eGC1 in a printer friendly format, and for displaying other information that needs to be printed.

To use these features in SAGE, you must configure your browser:

  • To either temporarily disallow or turn off pop-up blocking, OR
  • To allow pop-up windows from SAGE

Open a new browser window and without navigating anywhere, complete the directions in the Pop-Up & Pop-Up Blockers handout for the type of computer and browser that you use.
