Re: eRA Commons question -- yellow highlighted boxes in assembled application Bob Beattie 03 Mar 2010 10:36 EST

I just opened up an R01 generic application (PA-10-067, Adobe Forms B)
and on the Performance Site form, both Zip Code and Congressional
District are highlighted fields.  The wonder is how you got the
application pass "Check Package for Errors" and for G.g to validate
it.    Look back at your application on your computer to see if these
fields are filled in.

I’m hoping someone might be able to help me with a strange issue with
a recent NIH R01 application. I have submitted a service request, but
meanwhile thought I’d inquire if anyone else has experienced this
problem or can provide any explanation.

Yesterday I submitted an R01 application. It went through Grants.gov
fine and I received all the normal G.g emails in a timely manner.
However, I did NOT receive an email from Commons. I logged into
Commons and the assembled application was there, with NO warnings or
errors. However, when I viewed the assembled application, I saw yellow
highlighted boxes for "Zip/Postal Code" and "Congressional District"
in the "Project/Performance Site Location 1." These boxes are NOT
highlighted in the original application.

So, does anyone have any ideas? Fundamentally, it seems that if there
are yellow boxes in the assembled application, I should see the same
in the submitted application. I’m waiting to hear if we should
resubmit (though I wouldn’t know what to “change”) or if the
application is okay since it’s in Commons and we don’t have any
errors. If I had received the email from Commons that the application
was available, etc., I’d feel more confident that the application is
actually okay … . Thanks for any ideas!
