Electronic Receipt Process: NIH Steps
l Grants.gov does not check for Agency-specific rules
l Application can be accepted by Grants.gov but not
by the Agency
l When submission to Grants.gov is successful:
NIH retrieves the application package from electronically
Grants.gov
eRA software checks the application against NIH business rules
If it passes, eRA creates the 424RR-based grant image from
application and Commons data
NIH notifies Principal Investigator and Signing Official via email to
check the eRA Commons for results of NIH rule checking
