Fall 2019 Effort Report Certification is DUE March 31, 2020

To the UMBC Grant Community,

This is a reminder that Effort Reports for Fall 2019 are available and ready for certification. The Fall 2019 period includes Payroll 2020001 through Payroll 2020014 (from June 23, 2019 through January 04, 2020). Certifications are due March 31, 2020.

Please remember that Effort Reports are both a Compliance Tool and a Grants Management Tool. After reviewing payroll charges, work with your business managers if any changes are needed. Payroll cost transfers (retros) must be processed prior to certification of Effort Reports.   

To find out whether you have open effort reports (see page 6, Year: 2019 Period: Fall) and to learn how to certify them, see the attached updated Effort Report Quick Reference Guide with screenshots and contact information for your convenience.

Your timely commitment to this process is appreciated!
