Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone has a chart (or "cheat sheet") of the of
percentages of rebudgeting allowed by agency without prior approval.  (i.e.
In the case of NIH grants, 25% of the total budget can be moved).

Also, can someone explain what constitutes a rebudgeting change? Our
university's accounting system is, in most cases, much more detailed than
the agency's. For example, we have several sub-categories under 'personnel,'
whereas the agency's budget will lump all salaries for the project under the
general category of 'personnel.' My question is, does a change within our
internal subcategories (i.e. From 'p/t faculty' to 'temp help') constitute a
rebudgeting change if it not moved out of the agency's broader categories
(personnel in this case).

Thanks,
Susan
