2.2 Updating the SF424

Because certain information from the Funding Proposal maps to the linked 424 application, it is recommended to complete the funding proposal application first. Once proposal and budget information has been completed in the funding proposal, you are ready to update the 424 to take advantage of this feature. Even though it is recommended to complete the funding proposal first, do not route until the 424 application is ready for review.

From the funding proposal workspace, click the Create-Update SF424 activity.

In Create-Update SF424 window, select the SF424 forms you want to map data to from the Funding Proposal or Budget and Click OK.

Required forms will default to “checked.” Any optional forms can be checked as well. If this proposal includes a budget, either the R&R Budget or PHS 398 Modular Budget form for NIH submissions should be selected.

The status column will update as each form is generated. A success alert appears when the SF424 application has been generated and is ready for review. The window will automatically close once the process is complete; do not “x” out of the window prematurely.

The SF424 has been updated and the information from the Funding Proposal that can map to the 424 should have mapped successfully.
