Announcements and News

06/20/08--As a part of the EFS transition, the systems run by the OVPR (including EGMS, RSPP, REPA, ROC, RCR, ROHP, and MTARF) are being updated to contain certain fields needed by the new financial system (for example, replacing Area with DeptID in the PRF).  We have arranged for this update to take place outside of business hours to minimize impact on our users.

The systems listed above will be unavailable from *6:00 p.m. on Monday, June 30th until 8:00 a.m. the next morning, July 1st*.  All data and records in these systems (including in-progress records) will be retained and available for use once the system comes back up.  No action is required by users.

Principal Investigators or departmental administrators who are working on proposals for early July should be particularly aware of this temporary shutdown, as PRFs and EGMS budgets will not be able to be accessed on that evening.  NIH R01 proposals with a due date of July 5th and other proposals due on July 1st should NOT be impacted, as all of these proposals should have already arrived at SPA by this time.

If you have any questions, please contact the EGMS Help Desk at help@egms.umn.edu or 624-1600 for assistance.
