ADJUSTMENT_TYPE

Indexed - yes
Format - varchar2 (34)
May be null? no

The reason for the adjustment to the special budget balance (specified by the SPECIAL_BUDGET_OBJECT) for the AWARD_FUND.

Values:
Award Restriction - the sponsor has stipulated that a portion of the award (equal to the ADJUSTMENT_AMOUNT) may not be spent
CarryOver-Unexpended Balances - the ADJUSTMENT_AMOUNT is a residual amount of unspent funding from one budget period of a sponsored project, which the sponsor has allowed to be carried over and to be used in the next authorized budget period of the project
CarryOver-Unliquidated Obligations - the ADJUSTMENT_AMOUNT is a residual amount of encumbered funding from one budget period of a sponsored project, which the sponsor has allowed to be carried over and to be used to relieve the encumbrance in the next authorized budget period of the project. (An example of an unliquidated obligation is the amount of a purchase order for something ordered before the end of a budget period but paid (liquidated) after the end of that budget period.)
Conversion - the adjustment was made in July, 2004 as part of the effort to convert the special budget process from a manual process to an automated one
Closeout - the adjustment was made as part of the fund closeout process, to ensure that the special budget reflects what was actually spent on the project. (The residual amount is handled per the sponsor's requirements.)
EDU Transfer - as authorized by the sponsor, the ADJUSTMENT_AMOUNT has been transferred from one federally-sponsored student aid fund to another

FUND_ADJ_PK

Indexed - yes
Format - number (9)
May be null? yes

A sequence number that uniquely identifies a record in the PENNERA_FUND_ADJ table. (More than one adjustment can be entered for a given special budget for a given fund on a given day.) The sequence number is generated by the special budget process of the PennERA Proposal Tracking system.

Values:
4321 to 999,999,999

PennERA source: STAGING.PROPOSALFUNDADJ.ADJ_ID

FUND_RESPONSIBLE_ORG

Indexed - yes
Format - char (4)
May be null? no
The 4-character code identifying the Organization responsible for managing all of the money tracked by the AWARD_FUND. An Organization is a subdivision of the University created for management purposes. An Organization belongs to only one responsibility center, and its Organization code is unique. That is, no two Organizations have the same value for FUND_RESPONSIBLE_ORG.

To facilitate Organization-based security, FUND_RESPONSIBLE_ORG is set to '.' if it would otherwise be null.

Example: 4261 (DM-Rheumatology)

Values:
Refer to the ORG_CODES table for values.

INSTITUION_NO

Indexed - yes
Format - char (8)
May be null? yes
The eight-digit sequence number used by the University to uniquely identify the proposal to which the fund adjustment applies. Note that the value for INSTITUTION_NO includes leading zeroes.

Records with an INSTITUTION_NO less than or equal to 05017400 were converted from the Research Services System (RSS, the system used to track proposals and awards before October 14, 2003). Other records are for proposals created in PennERA.

There are two different unique identifiers for a proposal: INSTITUTION_NO and PROP_NO. INSTITUTION_NO is used by the University. PROP_NO is used internally by the PennERA system. For a given record, INSTITUTION_NO will not have the same value as PROP_NO. While either one may be used, INSTITUTION_NO is the one recommended for display in reports.

PAR_PI_PRIACADAPPT_ORG_CODE

Indexed - yes
Format - char (4)
May be null? yes

The 4-character code for the organization (‘org.’) of the primary academic job appointment for the Principal Investigator (PI) for the proposal that is the parent of the proposal to which the fund adjustment applies. If the proposal to which the fund adjustment applies has no parent, PAR_PI_PRIACADAPPT_ORG_CODE is ‘.’.

Currently, the Office of Research Services is not entering data for parent proposals, so all instances of PAR_PI_PRIACADAPPT_ORG_CODE have the value ‘.’.

The primary academic appointment org. is the org. where the person has his or her primary academic job appointment. If the person has more than one academic job appointment, the primary academic appointment is the one with the most important faculty class. For further information on how the primary academic appointment is determined, see the explanation in the Cautions section of the documentation for the EMPLOYEE_GENERAL table.

PAR_PI_PRIACADAPPT_ORG_CODE reflects the primary academic appointment org. of the PI for the parent proposal, as it was at the time of the proposal (funding cycle). Once the funding cycle has ended, the PAR_PI_PRIACADAPPT_ORG_CODE is no longer updated. The dates for the funding cycle are the AWARDED_PROJECT_START and AWARDED_PROJECT_END in the PENNERA_PROPOSAL table. If the PI for the parent proposal has no employee information about a faculty job appointment dating back to the time of the funding cycle, PAR_PI_PRIACADAPPT_ORG_CODE is ‘.’.

To facilitate Organization-based security, records with a null value for
PAR_PI_PRIACADAPPT_ORG_CODE have the value changed to '.' in the Warehouse.

Example: 4261 (DM-Rheumatology)

Values:

PARENT_PI_ERA_PRI_ORG_CODE

Indexed - yes
Format - char (4)
May be null? yes

The 4-character code for the ERA primary organization (‘org.’) for the Principal Investigator (PI) for the proposal that is the parent of the proposal to which the fund adjustment applies. If the proposal to which the fund adjustment applies has no parent, PARENT_PI_ERA_PRI_ORG_CODE is ‘.’.

Currently, the Office of Research Services is not entering data for parent proposals, so all instances of PARENT_PI_ERA_PRI_ORG_CODE have the value ‘.’.

The ERA primary org. is the org. flagged as the primary department in the person’s PennERA Profile. Although it is used to secure certain data elements in the Data Warehouse, the ERA primary org. is not used by the University’s business processes.

For Penn staff, the ERA primary org. is the primary (job) appointment org. For Penn faculty, it is the primary academic (job) appointment org., which will not be the same as primary appointment org. for those faculty holding administrative positions. For Penn employees whose job appointments are all on the executive payroll, ERA primary org. is ‘8000’ ('General University Special '). For Penn students, the ERA primary org. is the organizational equivalent of their home Division (for example, ‘0200’, School of Arts and Sciences.) For investigators from the University of Pennsylvania Health System (UPHS), the ERA primary org. is ‘2100’ ('Health System '). For members of the research community who are otherwise not affiliated with Penn, the ERA primary org. is ‘8760' ('Research Services').

PARENT_PI_ERA_PRI_ORG_CODE reflects the ERA primary org. of the PI for the parent proposal, as it was at the time of the proposal (funding cycle). Once the funding cycle has ended, the PARENT_PI_ERA_PRI_ORG_CODE is no longer updated. The dates for the funding cycle are the AWARDED_PROJECT_START and AWARDED_PROJECT_END in the PENNERA_PROPOSAL table.

To facilitate Organization-based security, records with a null value for
PARENT_PI_ERA_PRI_ORG_CODE have the value changed to '.' in the Warehouse.

Example: 4261 (DM-Rheumatology)

PARENT_PI_HOME_ORG_CODE

Indexed - yes
Format - char (4)
May be null? yes
The 4-character code for the home organization (‘org.’) for the Principal Investigator (PI) for the proposal that is the parent of the proposal to which the fund adjustment applies. If the proposal to which the fund adjustment applies has no parent, PARENT_PI_HOME_ORG_CODE is ‘.’.

Currently, the Office of Research Services is not entering data for parent proposals, so all instances of PARENT_PI_HOME_ORG_CODE have the value ‘.’.

The home org. is the org. that owns the person's employee record and is responsible for its maintenance.

PARENT_PI_HOME_ORG_CODE reflects the home org. of the PI for the parent proposal, as it was at the time of the proposal (funding cycle). Once the funding cycle has ended, the PARENT_PI_HOME_ORG_CODE is no longer updated. The dates for the funding cycle are the AWARDED_PROJECT_START and AWARDED_PROJECT_END in the PENNERA_PROPOSAL table. If the PI for the parent proposal has no employee information dating back to the time of the funding cycle, PARENT_PI_HOME_ORG_CODE is ‘.’.

To facilitate Organization-based security, records with a null value for
PARENT_PI_HOME_ORG_CODE have the value changed to '.' in the Warehouse.

Example: 4261 (DM-Rheumatology)

Values:

PARENT_PI_INV_ORG_CODE

Indexed - yes
Format - char (4)
May be null? yes
The 4-character code for the investigator organization (‘org.’) for the Principal Investigator (PI) for the proposal that is the parent of the proposal to which the fund adjustment applies. If the proposal to which the fund adjustment applies has no parent, PARENT_PI_INV_ORG_CODE is ‘.’.

Currently, the Office of Research Services is not entering data for parent proposals, so all instances of PARENT_PI_INV_ORG_CODE have the value ‘.’.

Although it is used to secure certain data elements in the Data Warehouse, the investigator org. is not used by the University’s business processes.

For example, if the proposal to which the fund adjustment applies has INSTITUTION_NO 22222222, and its parent has INSTITUTION_NO 11111111, then a record for INSTITUTION_NO 11111111 exists as a proposal in the PENNERA_PROPOSAL table, and the parent PI (the PI for INSTITUTION_NO 11111111) exists in the PENNERA_PROPOSAL_INVESTIGATOR table as an investigator associated with the proposal that has INSTITUTION_NO 11111111.

For a given investigator associated with a proposal, the investigator org. is the org. specified (on the Office of Research Services Proposal Transmittal and Approval Form) as the 'Dept. Administering Project' (the PROPOSAL_RESP_ORG_CODE). An exception to this rule is that, if the PROPOSAL_RESP_ORG_CODE is neither the investigator's ERA primary org. nor an org. where the investigator has a job appointment, when the investigator's data is entered for the proposal in PennERA, the investigator org. is chosen from among those orgs., based on its being the one that is most closely related to the PROPOSAL_RESP_ORG_CODE. In other words:

  • if the investigator has only one org, then that org. is chosen; otherwise,
  • if the investigator has an org. that is the same as the PROPOSAL_RESP_ORG_CODE, then that org. is chosen; otherwise
  • the investigator's orgs. are sorted in ascending order, and the first org. whose org. code is greater than or equal to the PROPOSAL_RESP_ORG_CODE is chosen; otherwise,
  • if the investigator has no org. whose org. code is greater than or equal to the PROPOSAL_RESP_ORG_CODE, the investigator's ERA primary org. is chosen

To facilitate Organization-based security, records with a null value for
PARENT_PI_INV_ORG_CODE have the value changed to '.' in the Warehouse.
