The
following system improvements have recently been made in RAPSS to expedite workflow and provide more data:
- The Click Commerce-based systems, eIRB, eIACUC, and eCOI can now share data with RAPSS. PIs can find certain protocol information within RAPSS to complete the questions in both the RAPSS proposal and award modules without having to enter the other Click-based systems to retrieve that data.
- The eCOI research certification for projects classified as organized research can be initiated directly in RAPSS, which will automatically link the eCOI record to the correct Funding Proposal in RAPSS for the purposes of congruency review. Please initiate the eCOI research certification in RAPSS so that the link is maintained. Once initiated, the record must be completed in the eCOI system. This will expedite the COI process and allow for faster award setup.
- All proposal or award activity must be completed in RAPSS. Please talk with your Grant Specialist if you have questions. Guidance documents and training schedules are available online.
