Proposal Log

The Proposal Log document creates an electronic proposal and proposal number for a proposal that you do not submit through the Streamlyne Research Proposal Development and Budget module. Your institution can use the Proposal Log for paper proposal submissions or for sponsor agreements and awards received prior to an electronic proposal. If your institution does not implement the Streamlyne Research Proposal Development and Budget module, you can initiate a Proposal Log to record a paper proposal. The Proposal Log generates an Institutional Proposal record that your institution can use for reporting.

Examples of how your institution may use the Proposal Log are:

• An investigator at your institution submitted a paper proposal to the sponsor.

• Your institution receives a check from a sponsor for which there is no formal proposal.

• The sponsored projects office receives incremental funding for which there is no formal proposal.

• The sponsored projects office receives an award agreement and must begin negotiations with the agency prior to receiving a formal proposal.

• Your institution receives a non-competing continuation award for which there is no formal proposal.

• Your institution opts to track white papers for which there are no formal proposals.

When you create a Proposal Log in situations like this, it enables your institution to accurately track and report on proposals.

Access

Your Streamlyne Research role determines your authorization to create, modify, merge, submit, view, or print a proposal log. Your institution may create its own user roles and authorizations, or you may use the default Streamlyne Research roles and authorizations:

User Class	Role	Authorizations
OSP Administrator	Maintainer	The OSP Administrator can create, modify, merge, submit, and print a proposal log.
OSP Administrator – Contractor	Maintainer	The OSP Administrator can create, modify, merge, submit, and print a proposal log.
Unit/Dept Administrator	Viewer	A Unit and a Dept Administrator can view and print a proposal log
PI/Co-PI/Key Personnel	Viewer	The PI, Co-PI, and Key Personnel can view and print a proposal log. The PI, Co-PI, and Key Personnel can request a proposal number and view their proposals in the Proposal Log; they need to request changes through the appropriate mechanism and route them to the OSP Administrator.

You can access the Proposal Log document one of these ways:

• Unit menu > Pre-Award group > Proposal Log >

• Central Admin menu > Pre-Award group > Proposal Log >

• > Id column > Id link

• > Document Lookup search results > Document/Notification Id column > document ID
