Process

Workflow - After form submission, the UMB PI approves. A request for a new subaward is sent to SPA for risk assessment and then to the SPA Subaward team for review and approval. A request to modify an existing subaward is sent to the SPA Subaward team for review and approval.

The SPA Subaward team may return the form to you for revisions. Make the revisions and approve to resubmit the form for continued review.

When the SPA Subaward team approves the Subaward Request, a subaward record is created in Kuali Research, or updated if the request is for a modification. The SPA Subaward team will prepare the agreement for final review before issuing it to your subrecipient.

Status - To find out where the request is in the workflow, log into Kuali Build, click on My Documents, and select Submitted. If the status says "In Progress" (in yellow), click on the line to view the form. In the left column of the form, toggle from Review to Status to view the workflow and actions. You will receive an email from Kuali Notifications at several points in the workflow including after the request is sent to the PI for approval.

If the Status column says "Complete" (in green), the form has been approved and the Kuali Build process is completed. Submitters receive an email with a PDF of the approved form. No changes can be made to the form via Kuali Build after it is approved and complete. At this point, the Kuali Research record for this subaward has been created or updated, and the SPA Sub Team will send the new or modified subaward to the subrecipient.
