New in eRA: Multiple Active Applications: What Does MAA Mean for Applicants Navigating eRA Commons?

Posted

As of February, eRA keeps all versions (e.g., 01, A1, A2) of a grant application active and provides an internal “MAA” flag for each application in an active cluster. The cluster allows applicants to identify quickly all versions of one application. If any version in a cluster is awarded, applicants will notice that all other applications within the cluster will be automatically withdrawn without any additional action by applicants or staff.

Having systems permit multiple active applications supports initiatives focused on expediting review and providing quicker feedback to applicants.
