ECSS Staff Availability Updates
| Monthly or quarterly e-mail check in with sub award PIs to update ECSS staffing levels | Sonia Nayak |
Notes/ Discussion items:
- Is it possible to get the names, fte, and wbs area for ecss staff on a monthly basis from the financial portal (or some other document)?
- Ron: How familiar are you with the financial reports available through the user portal available to the L3 areas?
- Not much usage, but as long as sub-awardees are submitting invoices in a timely manner, the FTE break downs in the XSEDE Financial reports is accurate on a monthly basis.
- Even in a perfect world where sub-awards are reporting quickly, it still will be at least one month late for ECSS to work with that.
- This might be useful for checking what we thought was the plan versus what was actually spent, but on a quick view, this (XSEDE Financial Portal) looks inaccurate
- Is it possible for ECSS Management to put pressure on the PIs to get information back for planning purposes
- Yes it's possible for L3s to do this
- Ron: How familiar are you with the financial reports available through the user portal available to the L3 areas?
