Budget Management in FMP

SUBMITTING DATA via the web

Questions 1-4

1. Duration - drop-down list driven by funding years selected at call configuration
2. Budget Type - selection triggers IDC rate defaults for non-sub-awards (how can this be customized?)
3. Worksheet Title - can be anything
4. (a) "Is this award to a non - <your institution> investigator?" - toggles worksheet as a sub-award
   (b) "If yes, does your institution have an active sub-award w/ MIT Sea Grant?" - for use with sub-awards (see Other Costs)

Matching Support
You may configure per call and per phase whether matching funds are required, and at what rates.

Other Costs

Options
Sub-award (provide label)
Sub-award NOT subject to indirect (provide label)
Other cost subject to indirect (describe)
Other cost NOT subject to indirect (describe)
Tuition NOT subject to indirect cost

All of these options are required by eSeaGrant and must not be removed from nor edited in the database table other_cost_types. "Sub-award NOT subject to indirect" is used primarily when Question #4a "If yes,…" is true.

For sub-awards, PIs submit one Statement of Work per project and a sub-award budget for each funding year involving a sub-award, populate the Other Cost line in worksheet with the appropriate values from the corresponding sub-award budget, and justify. If including justification in sub-award upload, they should note this in the justification text box.
