The last time I posed this question, I took the approach of trying to organize a mob of RESADMers to storm NIH and demand stuff.  And no one seemed interested.  This time I'll try something different.

Facts (?)

1) At no time during the preparation and submission of a NIH competing application is the PI required to log into Commons and do anything. Aside from getting scores and critiques, there is always someone else who can perform the necessary functions.

2) However, in order to upload JIT documents or route an eSNAP application to the SO for final submission, or upload MYPR documents, the PI's username and password are required.

Question: Assuming that administrators/assistants help many PIs with much grant administration, how do these people at your institution deal with these JIT and eSNAP chores?

Do they ask the PI to do it? (Waste of PI time)

Do they login using the PI's password?  (Often gives access to confidential info)

Do you let each PI decide how to handle this?

Thanks
