Layout Descriptions

During pre-proposal or application submission, you'll primarily use the Pre-Proposals, Investigators, and Budgets FMP layouts, as follows :

Pre-Proposals

Use this layout for managing both pre-proposals and applications.

Pre-Proposals

• View Investigator list, Budget information, and uploaded Files.
• Under the Coverpage tab, Click 'Preview Coverpage' to see what the coverpage will look like for a particular submission. Its layout depends upon the number of detailed investigator records accepted during pre-proposal submission. Up to two detailed investigator records are displayed on the coverpage, and additional detailed records are listed under 'Additional Investigators'. 'Other Personnel'  includes less-detailed investigator information and appears last.
• Email Lead PIs via the Investigators tab [ see General Information - RFP - Email Tool ].

Applications

• View applicant list (via Investigators tab)
• Under the Coverpage tab, Click 'Preview Coverpage' to see what the coverpage will look like for a particular application.
• All other application information is shown under the Application Summary tab. eSG Administrators use this tab to upload transcripts and letters of recommendation that were mailed to them during the application submission process.

Investigators

• This table lists all individuals added via registration or at the 'Investigators' step in proposal submission, and includes detailed contact information, CV / resume, and a list of any other proposals in which they've participated. CV / resumes may be added, updated, and deleted here as well.
• Investigators who registered as PIs automatically have a password; passwords may be applied to other investigators by using the blue [+] button to generate one for each.
• Access Status is currently not in use.

Budgets

This layout is used relevant in the pre-proposal phase only when pre-proposal budget worksheet submission is activated for a particular call.

If budget worksheets are used during the pre-proposal phase, the pre-proposal coverpage automatically displays the total requested Sea Grant and Grantee funds calculated from the worksheets. Please refer to Budget Worksheets and 90-4s for complete guidance in using eSG's budget worksheet system.
