Today’s Agenda: • REEport Financial Report • REEport Updates • POW Redesign Update

REEport Update

REEport Financial Report • The FY17 report was due 1 February 2018. • Reminder emails will be sent out every two weeks until the financial report has been received. • Currently 194 outstanding financial reports, including 2 partner sites. • Failure to submit a financial report may result in funding being withheld

REEport Financial Report • A new folder has been added to the Financial Report tab showing projects pending submission to NIFA • Helps clarify submission status.

REEport Financial Report

REEport • Data fixes will see a slowdown in the coming months due to security upgrades. • The CSV download option in Financial reports has been updated to exclude accession numbers for projects not eligible for reporting. If dates change on projects it can affect eligibility for financial reporting. Safest bet is to download a new CSV template from REEport.
