  6. Types of Reporting Models • Prime Recipient Reporting Model — User is submitting report for the Prime Recipient only. • Prime Service Provider Model — The Prime Recipient organization chooses to enter all reporting data for a given Prime Award as well as Sub Recipient Award(s) reporting data within one report submission.

Incorrect DUNS numbers could lead to reporting inaccuracies or validation errors. • Sub Recipient Reporting Model — User is submitting the data elements set forth or the Sub Recipient organization only.

  27. Report Input Methods • Via Online Web Form • Use Internet Explorer or Firefox to enter data • Via Excel Spreadsheet Upload* • Download the spreadsheet from FederalReporting.gov (compatible with Version 2003 or newer) • Easy to save a copy for yourself and to send to NASCSP • We will be showing you how to use this version • Via XML Upload* • The XML schema can be downloaded from FederalReporting.gov * FederalReporting.gov provides a Validation Utility to test your report structure prior to submitting.

  28. Prerequisites • Prerequisites to reporting: • All Prime Recipients of ARRA funds reporting through FederalReporting.gov and Sub Recipients of financial assistance (e.g., grants, loans) are required to be registered in the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) Database. https://www.bpn.gov/ccr/ • All Recipients must have a DUNS Number as administered by Dun & Bradstreet (D&B). http://fedgov.dnb.com/webform

  29. Locating the CCR Information • FederalReporting.gov allows registered users to search by DUNS Number to validate CCR and D&B registration • The CCR data will include information about the Recipient Point of Contact (POC)

  30. Point of Contact • The Recipient POC can perform all of the reporting and review functions of any Recipient user. In addition to: • Assigning DUNS Administrator • Removing users from your DUNS organization • FRPIN administration • Approve/Deny/Change FRPIN • More information can be found in the Recipient Point of Contact/DUNS Administrator User Guide: https://www.federalreporting.gov/federalreporting/downloads.do

  31. Point of Contact, continued • An individual can serve as POC for multiple DUNS numbers. However, an individual can only serve as DUNS Administrator for one DUNS number. • The FRPIN number is linked to the DUNS number. There will only be one FRPIN for each DUNS number. If your organization has multiple grants for the same DUNS number (e.g., weatherization and CSBG), they will use the same FRPIN.

  39. Removing a Sub Recipient • The State has two options: • Option 1: The Prime Recipient user from the State will first deactivate the incorrect report via My Reports. Then the user uploads the new Excel report with the accurate report data. • Option 2: Alternatively, the State may choose to simply make all changes online via My Reports. First, the user removes the Sub Recipient report using the Remove the Report icon . If the user needs to make any additional changes in the remaining report data, the user can make those changes online as well. Once finished, the user clicks “Submit” to submit the updated report.

  43. Completing the Report: Draft Version • From Oct. 1-10, a User may choose to submit a Draft of the report. • The Draft Status is a temporary reporting status only which allows an organization to continue to enter data prior to actual submission. • Recipients using the Excel template may store draft versions outside the system on their personal computers.

  44. Screenshot taken from “FederalReporting.gov User Guide”

  45. Completing the Report: Initial Submission • By Oct. 10, Users MUST submit the report as Initial Submission. • Failure to submit the report as Initial Submission by the 10th will lead to non-compliance • What if I don’t have all the information I need by Oct. 10th? • Still submit the incomplete report by Oct. 10. THEN, during Oct. 11-21, you can access the report and make additions or changes.

  46. Completing the Report: Initial Submission, continued • If you are absolutely unable to submit anything before Oct. 10, you are allowed to submit your Initial Submission report between Oct. 11-21, but you MUST include a Late Submission Justification • Beginning Oct. 22, no new Initial Submission reports will be accepted under any circumstances!

  47. Screenshot taken from “FederalReporting.gov User Guide”

  48. Completing the Report: Initial Submission, continued • When a User enters a Prime Recipient report, that User will provide the DUNS number, award type, and Award Number. • The User will also enter the FRPIN and submit the report. • If another individual logs into FederalReporting.gov, enters the FRPIN, and submits a report for that same award, the first report is overwritten! • THEREFORE, it is critical that Prime Recipients clearly communicate who is responsible for reporting on which awards.

  49. Completing the Report: Initial Submission, continued To review: • FederalReporting.gov recognizes the difference between a new report submitted as Initial Submission (possible non-compliance) after Oct. 10 and an update to an Initial Submission report after Oct. 10 (allowed).
