Lookup

Normal access KFS users do not have the ability to create a new award, but they can use the Award Lookup to search for awards based on a variety of criteria, including:

• Originating Office
• Originating Office Reference Number (number assigned to award by originating office)
• Agency Number
• Award Account Number
• Subcontractor Number
• Project Director (Principal Investigator) Name
• Sub-Fund Group Code

Creating New Account Against Award

Departments create a new expense account for the award, with the award information already pre-populated on the Account document. See the guide on creating a new C&G funded expense account for information on how this process works.

The data on the award is entered by Contracts & Grants Accounting (EFA). Data from awards coordinated by the Office of Research is automatically fed into the Award document from the Sponsored Programs Office (SPO).
