RF Award Credit Distribution Report

Description

Purpose

The RF Award Credit Distribution Report displays the expended dollars for an award based on the credit distributions that have been assigned. The Credit Distribution form in the Oracle Grants Management (GM) system allows a user to  assign a credit for direct or indirect cost expenditures among multiple faculty members (PI/Co-PI) and/or departments (Organization). The report displays the credit distribution percentages and calculates the expended dollars by credit distribution. 

Expended dollars are calculated by multiplying the expended dollars for the period of time entered on report by the credit distribution percentages. On awards where there is no credit distribution information entered, the default is 100% to the Task Org and the Task Manager.

The report can only be run for awards with the following award purpose codes:

Frequency

This report should be run as needed to gather credit distribution information entered on awards.
