Proposal Management: System-Generated Email Notifications

Overview

The eResearch Proposal Management (eRPM) system generates email notifications on certain state transitions and upon the completion of certain events/activities. All email notifications include information about the project and a link to the applicable workspace (PAF, Award, Hardship, UFA, SUBK, or Agreement Acceptance). This document provides tips about eRPM email notifications, outlines events that trigger email notification, and provides a short description of the email and its recipients.

Tips

  • Add [email protected] to your address book/contacts so messages are not sent to junk or spam mail.
  • You cannot copy a document link and paste it into a web browser. It will not work.
  • Forwarding an email message does NOT give access to eResearch. A person must be listed on the project or be a Reviewer to have access to view proposal/project/awards in eRPM.

Who receives email notifications?

Based on the situation/event/system activity emails are sent to:

  • UM Principal Investigator & Primary Research Administrator
    E.g., proposal routed for approval, reviewer requests changes, etc.
    • You cannot turn off the option to send emails to a Principal Investigator or Primary Research Administrator.
  • PAF Email Notifier for each Department
    E.g., this group will get emails when it is their department's turn to review the PAF, SUBK, etc. (instead of sending emails to all Reviewers).
    • Reviewers & Unit Liaisons for departments can change/control who is part of this email group for each Dept ID. This does not give Review access for the department. Reviewer or Reviewer Who Can Sign must be set-up separately. Contact your Unit Liaison for more information.
  • Selected individual using Post a Comment for the Entire Project Team
    • E.g., use system to send an email to U-M PI to ask them to sign PAF/Conflict of Interest Statement
