The Control Panel is the RFP submission homepage for external users, where they are directed upon log-in.

 

Start a New Proposal / Application: Directs users to a page where they choose among possible calls to respond to. The only calls offered as options are those which are active and in a stage that accepts new submissions.  Clicking 'Start' on that page creates a new proposal/application record and accompanying Proposal ID, and then directs the user to either the Application, Pre-Proposal, Full Proposal submission process, depending on the specifications of the chosen call. Users receive confirmation emails acknowledging their initiation a new proposal or application.

Call: Parent call of proposal or application

Start Date: Start date of associated award

Title: Title of proposal or application

ID: This ID is a database-friendly concatenation of the PI's last name (or user, if application) and a random four-digit number. This ID accompanies the proposal/application throughout the submission and review process and through its lifespan as a funded project. Files and folders generated in the eSG system that relate solely to this proposal/project use this ID in their naming scheme.

Status / Tasks: This section reflects progress of the submission, and includes some or all of the following steps (assuming an active parent call) :

  1. edit / delete proposal or application : if deadline has not passed; only pre-proposals and applications may be deleted by the user
  2. start full proposal : if associated call is two-stage omnibus-type, and pre-proposal was accepted for review and full proposal submission; this changes to 'edit proposal' upon full proposal creation
  3. view peer reviews : if peer reviews for the associated call have been opened for viewing via Calls FMP layout
  4. view panel reviews : if panel reviews for the associated call have been opened for viewing via Calls FMP layout
  5. edit peer review rebuttals : if rebuttal phase has been activated via Calls FMP layout
