Omnibus Preparation

Omnibus Preparation includes the following steps:

If PIs need to make adjustments to their proposals as directed by Admins, the call enters its Final Revision Phase, and their proposals are editable again via the Control Panel.
Proposals to be funded are prepared for Omnibus.
Omnibus is generated using a specific set of scripts.
When appropriate, funded proposals are Promoted to Projects Database.

For a full description of the RFP FMP interface, go to :

To allow PIs to make adjustments to their proposals via the Control Panel, toggle the associated call's Final Revision Phase value to 'active'.

For each Full Proposal that is to be included in the Omnibus, you must:

Omnibus Settings: Toggle “Include in Omnibus” to 'Yes'
Omnibus Settings: Assign its order within the Omnibus (e.g. the proposal listed first in a Table of Contents will have an order value of 1). It's easier to order Omnibus proposals by filtering for just proposals Included in Omnibus, and then switching to Table View.
Assign each Omnibus proposal values for Project Code, Project Integer, Project Status, Grant Number, and Revision Date (if applicable).

For each narrative,

Compile all parts for a narrative into a single PDF, using the plans below. I recommend compiling by section (1-5), and then compiling sections 1-5 into one PDF.
