Improvements to Workday Grant Management Released

Eileen Lehmann | October 15, 2021

A number of changes have been implemented this month based on input from the Ohio State research community about Workday. The changes include:

  • Emeritus Faculty can now be added as PIs on grants.
  • Permission to view award attachments was granted to anyone with Grant Administration dashboard access.
  • The Personnel and Non-Personnel Expenditures section in Grants Administration and Principal Investigators Summary dashboards now only includes direct costs. The F&A can be viewed in the Budget vs Actuals by Object Class section.
  • We are aware of encumbrances issues on the Other Funding report and working on a fix. At the same time, this report will also be added to the Grants Administration dashboard to mimic PI Summary dashboard. The changes will be coming soon.

 

In addition, please revisit the Oct. 1 post regarding the Budgets vs Actuals by Object Class, which now includes new language to clarify those updates.

To learn more about reports that are helpful for grant administration, please attend the Research Reporting Office Hours on Tuesday, October 26.
