Routing Queue Change for Effort Reporting and Grant Related Labor Redistributions

On September 30, 2024, we will be implementing a change to the Effort Reporting and Labor Redistribution modules of Banner. This change will affect who can approve grant-related effort reports and labor redistributions.

Currently, effort reports and labor redistributions route to the grant’s Principal Investigator. The updated routing queue will now route the approval to the fund’s Principal Investigator. We believe that the updated routing queue will provide greater transparency for grants with linked funds and multiple project Co-PI’s. Investigators at the fund level will now be able to review and approve effort reports and labor redistributions related to their part of the project. It will also cut down on the administrative burden of re-routing and re-assigning an alternate approver. All other functionality within these modules will remain the same.

If you find that you need to update a fund Principal Investigator, please contact fundnumber@drexel.edu, and if you have any questions at all about this new process, please contact the RAS mailbox at RAS@drexel.edu.

Thank you.
