My Cayuse424 proposal shows errors that contradict specific instructions (such as Research Plan page lengths). What do I do?
The most common cause of this contradiction is that the proposal in question requires the NIH Opt-out validations rather than the standard NIH validations. While Cayuse 424 usually applies the appropriate validations automatically, there are sometimes late changes in opportunity rules that require a manual change in the proposal’s validation setting. Visit the NIH Opt-Out page and search for your FOA. If it is on the Opt-Out list, manually change the validation. At the bottom of the proposal, select “NIH Opt-Out” from the pull-down list of validations. If this is not the case, then you should contact our support department for more assistance.
