  1. SPA Updates Research Administrators Council November 20, 2013 Beth Callaway - Assistant Director, University Receivables David Thomas – Manager, Post Award Administration

  2. CY End Preparation • Warning! Industry sponsors • FY=CY for most industry sponsors • Often receive requests for invoices before Dec. 31st - CMU may or may not be able to accommodate • Refer all inquiries to Beth Callaway at callaway@andrew.cmu.edu or x8-5838

  3. NIH – New Billing Requirements • What? • NIH is moving to a new billing system that will require awards to be billed individually rather than in a pooled account (LOC) • New subaccounts (“P accounts”) created to replace the previous pooled accounts (“G accounts”) • When? • Beginning October 1, 2013 for new awards issued with GFY14 funds (types, 1, 2, 4, 6, and 7) • Beginning October 1, 2014 for non-competing renewals (types 5 and 8) at the start of the renewal year for each award

  4. NIH – New Billing Requirements • How does this affect a PI or department administrator? • Phase I (new awards on/after 10/1/13) – no change. SPA will bill new awards within the new system and existing awards within the current system • Phase II (non-competing awards on/after 10/1/14) – • New Oracle accounts will need to be established when next year’s funding is received • Former NIH accounts will need to be closed out – even if under SNAP • Carryover from former G accounts will need to be moved to the new P accounts in NIH system and be reported as carryover on financial reports • Additional communications will be forthcoming

  5. NIH – New Billing Requirements • Information/References: • http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/notice-files/NOT-OD-13-112.html http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/notice-files/NOT-OD-13-120.htmlhttp://grants.nih.gov/grants/payment/faqs.htm#3781

  6. Changes to Financial Reporting for Sponsored Awards • Closeouts/Final Reporting • Will be asking for closeout memos to be submitted one week prior to report due date • Reminder – for a normal 90 day closing period, campus has 60 days to review/liquidate expenses • Questionable cost items should be justified prior to receiving the recon – can be included in the detailed explanation in Oracle • Default accounts – costs being moved to the default account must be processed by AP (since R12 upgrade) so additional information is not able to be added to description – may be harder for departments to identify
