Re: New OSP Team Portfolio Distributions
by Justin Marmolejo
Hi Liz,
No. The portfolio distribution within each team is being updated as well to reflect the colleges being supported. The new assigned GCAs under Ana and Cedric will begin reaching out to the RA Teams after 9/1/25 to introduce themselves as well as scheduling regular meetings with you.
Thanks,
Justin

Thank you, Justin! So, does this mean, for example, COS will still be handled by the same GCAs under Ana, except for our department that moved to CAICC?

Dear All,
This is a gentle reminder that all final invoices for TRC4 funded awards must be received by 08/15/25, as indicated in the Letter Agreement to each institution. Invoices received after this date may not be paid, as all outstanding invoices must be settled by 08/31/25, when the funds lapse in accordance with the state appropriation fund deadline. As such, please submit your final invoices to OSP-TRC4(a)uthscsa.edu by COB on 08/15/25.
Thank you,

Approval Routing for Exp Report 0000426253
by Francesca Bronder
Hi Justin,
This voucher was created before the role change; it was sent back by DTS around July 14 and re-started, but the routing "glitched" I think; can you please take a look at it and let us know?
Basically after the PI initially certified and auto-approved, it routed to the approvers in the old role first , like Olga, David and OSP - see screenshot on the left; after Olga approved, it routed to me in the new role - see screenshot o to the right. Shouldn't it have routed to me then to the GRT-Central approvers?
