<p class="MsoNormal" style="border:none;padding:0in">Notifications, as to those proposals which are not funded, are typically sent from the sponsor directly to the principal investigator without cc’ing the authorized organization representative listed on the
proposal. Consequently, many unfunded proposals remain as “Pending” in UCR’s Proposal and Award Management Information System (PAMIS). To ensure the most up-to-date information when running a report using the <a href="https://redit.ucr.edu/OrPortal/index.aspx">RED
Web Portal</a> (e.g., generating a Current and Pending Report for use in a subsequent proposal), it is most helpful to have the proposal status updated in PAMIS rather than manually removing such proposal(s) from the report each time it is run. Simply advise
your <a href="https://research.ucr.edu/staff">Contract and Grant Officer</a> in Sponsored Programs Administration (SPA) as to which proposal was not selected for funding (or forward the notification), and SPA will update the proposal status in PAMIS.<o:p></o:p></p>
