Did you know that, as an administrator with certain access rights in eRA Commons, you can help reduce the administrative burden for your faculty? eRA Commons enables VUMC faculty to delegate authority to perform specific functions to any VUMC Commons user that has the assistant (ASST) role.
Delegation can be assigned for various tasks individually, from the ability to update Personal Profile information for principal investigators, to viewing application status information (this does not include the summary statement or priority score), managing trainee information for training grants, working on RPPRs without the need to route, and other activities. For more information and instructions on how to delegate, please visit the Manage Delegations page on the NIH website.
If you believe that this is something that would benefit either you or your faculty, please submit a PEER Action Request (“Request an eRA Commons Account”) and select “ASST” from the role menu. If you have questions regarding the delegation process, please contact your OSP Specialist.
