Cayuse Incoming Subawards

Main content start

When Stanford will be a subrecipient on a Federal Grants.gov proposal submission and the proposal requires the use of the R&R SUBAWARD BUDGET ATTACHMENT(S) form, there are two primary ways for Stanford to provide complete this for pass-through-institution.

  1. How to Create within Stanford's Cayuse a Stanford subaward proposal to send to another "Cayusing" institution

  2. My PI is a subrecipient on a Grants.gov proposal, and the pass through entity uses Workspace

How to Create within Stanford's Cayuse a Stanford subaward proposal to send to another "Cayusing" institution.

We will create a standalone subaward proposal within Stanford's Cayuse, export the proposal as a .cayuse file, and send it to the pass-through-institution via email.  The "Cayusing" pass-though-institution will then import Stanford's .cayuse subaward proposal into their prime Cayuse proposal.
