Setting up Award/Award Acceptance Questions

1) I just received an award. Now what do I do?

Congratulations on receiving your award!  If you received the award documents directly from the sponsor, please send the documentation to Research Administration at OVPRShelpdesk@miami.edu. Research Administration will open a new sponsored account, provided all proper documentation has been previously submitted to Pre-Award and compliance items (i.e., IRB, IACUC and Conflict of Interest) are not pending. Review the New Award Set-Up Checklist to assist you with start up of your project.  

 2) How do I open a new sponsored account for my project?

Research Administration (RA) will automatically open a new award in Workday when your project is awarded, provided all proper documentation has been previously submitted to Pre-Award and compliance items (i.e., IRB, IACUC and Conflict of Interest) are not pending. In the absence of an award, The Principal Investigator may request an advance account under guarantee. The Advance Account Form can be used to request opening or extending an award without an award letter. Please keep in mind that if not awarded, the advance account is liable for expenses charged. 

Read the Advance Account Policy and the Advance Account procedures, for more information.
