Introduction
These instructions describe the process of how to allow an investigator to change disclosure information on PIAF.
Article Body
There are 2 methods to allow an investigator to change disclosure information for a PIAF that is currently a pending proposal or in workflow.
Method 1: Clearing an approval
- If PIAF is in the Award stage, you'll need to first convert the IAF back to the Proposal stage following this procedure.
- Once the PIAF is in the Proposal stage, revise the IAF.
- Delete the IAF approval for the investigator following this procedure.
- Start workflow. The IAF will send an approval email.
Method 2: Revise IAF
- If PIAF is in the Award stage, you'll need to first convert the IAF back to the Proposal stage following this procedure.
- Once the PIAF is in the Proposal stage, revise the IAF.
- Contact the investigator and ask them to access the IAF "Investigators" tab to correct answers using the following link: http://www.sims.psu.edu/iaf
- Once the investigator indicates the answers are correct, re-start workflow and submit IAF.
