UAHS Location of Research Activities

If proposal activity will take place at Banner University Medical Center (BUMC) facilities, answer 'Yes' to the appropriate location. These fields are not required so no response is the same as a 'No' answer.

F&A return by sibling account activity (not F&A split)?

Answer this question ‘Yes’ if Facilities & Administration (F&A) revenue distribution should be allocated based on actual UAccess Financials sibling account activity rather than applying the UAccess Research (UAR) proposal Credit Allocation percentages to the project as a whole regardless of sibling account activity. This decision cannot be reversed later or applied retroactively, and it is highly recommended the answer of 'Yes' is only used for major projects with collaboration across colleges. 

F&A Rate Category:

Select the appropriate rate category from the drop-down list in the UAccess Research (UAR) proposal. Visit the Facilities & Administrative (F&A) Rates page of the Research Support website and view the F&A rate table for additional guidance.

Proj Location (ex:Bldg-Rm-etc):

Enter the primary location where project activity will take place in the format Bldg-Rm-etc. Example: USB-510-A

F&A Rate % (ex: 53/53.5)

Enter as many Facilities & Administrative rates as will be applicable to a proposal separated by a forward slash and without the "%" symbol. Example: 53/53.5
