New Screen for Entering/Editing Interfaculty Involvement (IFI) in GMAS for December Release

In the GMAS release scheduled for December 14th, an enhanced “Edit interfaculty involvement” screen will be available from all requests. The enhanced screen includes the same functionality as the old screen, but also includes some exciting enhancements.

1. More than one interfaculty department and PI can be added from one screen

6. A pre-populated list of individuals who serve as department administrators under the org and PI combination available to add as IFI department administrators (which is tied to new functionality for part-of account access to enter GL budgets through GMAS, and the new transaction monitoring functionality)

  • More than one IFI department administrator can be selected per org/PI
  • Other individuals can still be added as IFI department admins even if they are not on the suggested list
