Completing the Application

After all questions have been answered and all sections marked complete, the Complete button becomes visible on the Project Detail screen.

Most grant applications move through two or three different steps, as established in the assigned workflow.

The Complete step:

Moves the project to the “Authorized Sign-off” or “Submit” step, where it is ready for review and approval by one or more authorized Agency users responsible for signing the contract.

Generates all reports.  If the grant preparer generated the reports manually, the reports are saved as a new version.

Makes all sections of the grant application “read-only.”  If corrections are needed, the section or sections must be returned to “In-Process” status, edited and marked complete.
