PENNERA_INCR_STAT_HIST Table - Data Element Index

Select a data element to view its definition and its indexed, format, and null values.

 

Data element Definition
HISTORY_STATUS

Indexed - yes
Format - char (1)
May be null? yes

A one-character code indicating whether the record stores the latest (current) status for the increment, or an earlier (historical) status for the increment.

Values:
C The record stores the current (latest) status 
  for the increment 
H The record stores a historical (past) status 
  for the increment
INCREMENT_NUMBER

Indexed - yes
Format - varchar2(6)
May be null? no
A sequence number uniquely identifying the increment within the proposal. Each proposal (INSTITUTION_NO) has an INCREMENT_NUMBER ‘1’. The maximum INCREMENT_NUMBER for a proposal is the number of increments that apply to that proposal.

There is one PENNERA_INCR_STAT_HIST record per proposal (INSTITUTION_NO or PROP_NO), per INCREMENT_NUMBER, per INCR_STAT_SEQUENCE_NO.

Examples: 3, 11

Values:
List of values not available

PennERA source (assuming the proposal record has been opened in the Proposal Tracking module): Budget; Awarded; Award Information section; the row number for the increment. (The first row in the Award Information section is for INCREMENT_NUMBER 1, the second row is for INCREMENT_NUMBER 2, etc.)

INCREMENT_STATUS

Indexed - no
Format - varchar2 (24)
May be null? yes
The status of the increment, per the sponsor’s response, effective as of the INCREMENT_STATUS_DATE.
Values: 
Advance Account--the funding for the increment is
   an advance provided by the department administering
   the project, in expectation of an award from the sponsor
Awarded--the funding for the increment is an award provided
   by the sponsor 
Future--the sponsor has notified the University
   of its intent to award funding for the increment,
   which applies to a future period (“out year”)
    
PennERA source (assuming the proposal record has been opened in the Proposal Tracking module): Budget; Awarded; Award Information section; the row for the increment (the first row in the Award Information section is for INCREMENT_NUMBER 1, the second row is for INCREMENT_NUMBER 2, etc.); Status link; below the Add section; the row for the increment status history record; the value shown in the Status column

INCREMENT_STATUS_DATE

Indexed - no
Format - date
May be null? yes

The date when the INCREMENT_STATUS went into effect.

In addition to the INCREMENT_STATUS_DATE, PennERA stores the RECORDED_DATE (the date the increment status history record was created). When an increment status history record is being created by a PennERA user, the values for the INCREMENT_STATUS_DATE and the RECORDED_DATE have the system date as their default value. Before the record is saved, the INCREMENT_STATUS_DATE is edited (if necessary) to reflect the date when the INCREMENT_STATUS went into effect. The value of the RECORDED_DATE, however, is always the date when the increment status history record was created. For example, if an increment was Awarded as of 10/30/2003, and that change in status was recorded in PennERA on 11/13/2003, the increment status history record's INCREMENT_STATUS_DATE is 10/30/2003, and its RECORDED_DATE is 11/13/2003.

The INCREMENT_STATUS_DATE always has a non-null value, but some increment status history records have a null value for the RECORDED_DATE.

Example: 10/30/2003

Values:
List of values not available

PennERA source (assuming the proposal record has been opened in the Proposal Tracking module): Budget; Awarded; Award Information section; the row for the increment (the first row in the Award Information section is for INCREMENT_NUMBER 1, the second row is for INCREMENT_NUMBER 2, etc.); Status link; below the Add section; the row for the increment status history record; the value shown in the Date column

INCREMENT_STATUS_FY

Indexed - no
Format - char (4)
May be null? yes

The fiscal year at Penn in which the INCREMENT_STATUS_DATE falls. Penn's fiscal year begins July 1 of one calendar year and ends June 30 of the next calendar year.

Example: 2004 (for an increment status history record whose
INCREMENT_STATUS_DATE is 10/30/2003)

Values:
List of values not available
INCR_STAT_SEQUENCE_NO

Indexed - yes
Format - number (10)
May be null? no

A sequence number uniquely identifying the status history record within the proposal and increment to which it applies. Each proposal and increment (INSTITUTION_NO and INCREMENT_NUMBER) has an INCR_STAT_SEQUENCE_NO ‘1’. The maximum INCR_STAT_SEQUENCE_NO for a proposal and increment is the number of status history records for that increment (which applies to that proposal).

There is one PENNERA_INCR_STAT_HIST record per proposal (INSTITUTION_NO or PROP_NO), per INCREMENT_NUMBER, per INCR_STAT_SEQUENCE_NO.

Examples: 1, 5

Values:
List of values not available

PennERA's Proposal Tracking module does not display the increment status sequence number.

INSTITUTION_NO

Indexed - yes
Format - char (8)
May be null? no

The eight-digit sequence number used by the University to uniquely identify the proposal whose increment status history is tracked by this PENNERA_INCR_STAT_HIST record. 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 when joining PennERA Proposals tables, INSTITUTION_NO is the one recommended for display in reports.

There is one PENNERA_INCR_STAT_HIST record per proposal (INSTITUTION_NO or PROP_NO), per INCREMENT_NUMBER, per INCR_STAT_SEQUENCE_NO.

Example: 00216424

Values:
List of values not available

PennERA source (assuming the proposal record has been opened in the Proposal Tracking module): any screen for the proposal; the Proposal Header (unlabelled, stationary section at the top of the screen); the number in the Proposal box in the upper right corner of the screen

LAST_EXTRACT_DATE

Indexed - no
Format - date
May be null? no

The date this increment status record was extracted from the PennERA Proposal Tracking system and loaded into the Warehouse.

Example: 12/16/2003

Values:
List of values not available.
MODIFIED_BY

Indexed - no
Format - char (8)
May be null? yes

The PennID of the person who entered (or last modified) the increment status record by hand. The name of the person can be found in the PENNERA_PEOPLE table. If MODIFIED_BY is null, the increment status record was entered via a program, rather than by hand.

Example: ‘10022206’

Values:
List of values not available.
PennERA source (assuming the proposal record has been opened in the Proposal Tracking module): Budget; Awarded; Award Information section; the row for the increment (the first row in the Award Information section is for INCREMENT_NUMBER 1, the second row is for INCREMENT_NUMBER 2, etc.); Status link; below the Add section; the row for the increment status history record; the PennID of the person whose name is shown in the Recorded By column (the PennID is not shown)

PROP_NO

Indexed - yes
Format - varchar2 (20)
May be null? no

The 10-digit sequence number used internally by the PennERA system to uniquely identify the proposal whose increment status history is tracked by this PENNERA_INCR_STAT_HIST record. Note that the value for PROP_NO includes leading zeroes.

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 when joining PennERA Proposals tables, INSTITUTION_NO is the one recommended for display in reports.

There is one PENNERA_INCR_STAT_HIST record per proposal (INSTITUTION_NO or PROP_NO), per INCREMENT_NUMBER, per INCR_STAT_SEQUENCE_NO.

Example: ‘0000000217’

Values:
List of values not available

PennERA source (assuming the proposal record has been opened in the Proposal Tracking module): any screen for the proposal; the Proposal Header (unlabelled, stationary section at the top of the screen); the PROP_NO for the INSTITUTION_NO (INSTITUTION_NO is the number in the Proposal box in the upper right corner of the screen; PROP_NO is not shown)

RECORDED_DATE

Indexed - no
Format - date
May be null? yes

The date when the increment status history record was created in PennERA.

In addition to the RECORDED_DATE, PennERA stores the INCREMENT_STATUS_DATE (the date the status went into effect). When an increment status history record is being created by a PennERA user, the values for the INCREMENT_STATUS_DATE and the RECORDED_DATE have the system date as their default value. Before the record is saved, the INCREMENT_STATUS_DATE is edited (if necessary) to reflect the date when the INCREMENT_STATUS went into effect. The value of the RECORDED_DATE, however, is always the date when the increment status history record was created. For example, if an increment was Awarded as of 10/30/2003, and that change in status was recorded in PennERA on 11/13/2003, the increment status history record's INCREMENT_STATUS_DATE is 10/30/2003, and its RECORDED_DATE is 11/13/2003.

The INCREMENT_STATUS_DATE always has a non-null value, but some increment status history records have a null value for the RECORDED_DATE.

Example: 11/13/2003

Values:
List of values not available.
PennERA source (assuming the proposal record has been opened in the Proposal Tracking module): Budget; Awarded; Award Information section; the row for the increment (the first row in the Award Information section is for INCREMENT_NUMBER 1, the second row is for INCREMENT_NUMBER 2, etc.); Status link; below the Add section; the row for the increment status history record; the value shown in the Recorded Date column
