Procedure
Use this module before a pre-Council meeting to check on the status of applications, determine which are still available for a selective pay award, and rank them.
Division Director
- Open this module after program officers have nominated application records for selective pay award consideration in the Gray Zone Comments module.
- Choose Council date(s) in the Select Parameters screen.
- The Selective Pay screen lists application records in the selected Council dates. Tabs organize the records by division.
- To set the order in which applications are funded, enter a number in the Rank column of each record nominated for selective pay.
- To fund a grant at less than the study section-recommended level, enter a percentage under 100 in a record's "% Fund" column or enter the dollar amount in a record's Prog Rec column.
- To fund all grants at less than the study section-recommended level, enter a percentage in the Set "% Reduction" of All Apps field at the bottom of the Bridge Awards screen.
- Describe the merits of an application and other funding-related details in the Comments field of a record.
- To delete a record, use the Remove Selective Pay Record function under the Edit menu.
- The Selective Pay Budget section in the lower-left corner of the screen shows the FY budget for selective pay awards in each division. The Total Awarded for Selective Pay field at the bottom of the screen lists a running FY balance as applications are approved. The balance turns red if negative.
- These procedures may be performed by a scientific divisional CAAP and NPARS contact as well as by a division director.
DEA OD Staff
- Before a Council meeting, print a report of each division's nominated selective pay awards for the Council Book.
