SIMSbudgets: How to update OC budget line item to reflect Data Management and Sharing Costs (DMSP)

This article advises users where within a budget line item a user is able to indicate if costs are Data Management and Sharing Costs (DMSP). 

SIMSbudgets users have the ability to update any category line item being added or existing on a SIMSbudgets by updating a checkbox that indicates Data Management and Sharing Costs (DMSP).

The DMSP indicator was added to SIMSbudgets as a result of NIH Policy on Data Management and Sharing (DMS) policy (effective January 25, 2023) to promote the sharing of scientific data.  Users are able to update a DMSP checkbox on the "OC Line Item Editor" for each: Cat I, Cat II, Cat III, Cat IV, Cat V, MTDC and TDC. This indicator will signify Data Management and Sharing Costs and can be used with the Budget "Group By" and "Print View" features .

• The DMSP checkbox will appear on all line items on a SIMSbudgets when the sponsor or prime sponsor falls under the DHHS hierarchy.
• F&A is calculated for the line item as per Budget Basis Selected, any F&A calculated for the Line Item will remain totaled in the IDC total as normal.
• When a salary line item has DMSP indicated, the Data Management and Sharing Costs will only include direct salary and fringe. 
• The DMSP checkbox will NOT appear for subaward object codes (408 and 416).
• NOTE:  The DMSP checkbox will NOT appear if the sponsor has not been validated yet on SIMSbudgets.  If a user does not see the DMSP box when sponsor falls under DHHS hierarchy, user should ensure the sponsor has been validated by reviewing the "Budget Parameters" screen for the SIMS budget.  If the checkmark does not appear next to the Sponsor, this means it has not been validated.  Use the magnifying glass to update sponsor so that it is validated.  Below screenshot represents a sponsor that has been validated.
