Important RPPR Reminder

We’ve become aware that while the transition to RPPR is effective for all NIH continuing awards to be made July 1 or later (for all reports due beginning in May), both the eSNAP and RPPR options may be available in eRA Commons. PLEASE advise your faculty to select the RPPR option. They should not select eSNAP. The RPPR must be used – if the eSNAP is started in error, the Commons Help Desk will have to be contacted to allow the PI access to start over using the required RPPR. Here are add’l details provided previously regarding the RPPR: If you assist PIs in your department or center with their annual progress reports to NIH, please read this important notice about the transition to the RPPR format in eRA Commons: http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/notice-files/NOT-OD-13-035.html Principal Investigators should allow some extra time when they are using the RPPR format for the first time.
