What needs to be done if a PI inadvertently certifies for another PI or faculty member?
A. If a PI has already certified an entire report for another faculty member, there are two possible solutions. If the effort certification is correct, the faculty member should add a comment to their effort report stating concurrence with the certified percentages. Comments may be added after certification by using the Comments tab. If the effort certification is incorrect, the faculty member should re-open their effort report using the Reopen Effort Report button, make the appropriate changes and re-certify the report. In some cases, the PI will have certified only the project line for his/her project. The faculty member can use the Certify button to certify the entire report, which will prompt him/her to remove the line certification.
