Updated Facilities & Administrative Rates

On the afternoon of May 4th, the Facilities and Administrative (F&A) Rates were updated in Kuali Research to include MSU's new rate agreement. If you have a budget in progress and the project start date is after July 1st, we encourage you to update the F&A rate by clicking the [Sync All Rates] button in the Rates Option prior to sending the budget to the Office of Sponsored Programs for review. If you have any questions, please contact your Proposal Team or the KR Helpdesk.

COI Disclosure Information on Summary/Submit Option

The COI Disclosure Information table has been added as a separate tab in the Summary/Submit option. This allows reviewers an easy way to check disclosure statuses without having to navigate to a separate option within the PD document.

Changes to Budget Report #1

The Budget Costshare Summary Report (i.e., budget report #1), has been updated to provide additional cost share detail. The changes include:

  • Adding a Fringe Rate column.
  • Breaking the cost share column into two separate columns to delineate between cost shared salary and fringe benefits.
  • Added a Summary page at the end of the report.

The Cost Share Salary & Other column includes salary and all other cost shared expenditures, as well as the F&A for all cost shared expenditures, including fringe benefits. The Cost Share Fringe column only includes fringe benefits associated with the cost shared salary.

Pre-Proposal Can Be Selected as Proposal Type for S2S

Previously, when selecting Pre-Proposal as the Proposal Type for a System-to-System (S2S) application, a Grants.gov error would occur, because of how the information was mapping to the SF424 form. The mapping has been adjusted, so you may now select Pre-Proposal as the Proposal Type for S2S submissions.


Fixed – Error Occuring For # Of PSC Participants

An error was prompted when clicking save after editing the number of participants receiving Participant Support Costs in the Kuali Budget Module. This has been corrected.
