Completing this one page will create a new SPS entry.
• An * means that information is required. You can always go back and change it or update it later.
• The Owning Duke Org will autofill. If you need to change the Org Unit to your center instead of the Duke PI’s org, do it on this page BEFORE Create is selected.
• If you make an error and need to change the Owning Org, the call your Assistant Director at ORS to have that done.

Department Needs By (required field)
Examples of why the Agency Due Date and the Dept. Needs By date can be different.
• The department needs proposal documents requiring ORS signature in order to submit before the sponsor’s deadline. (i.e. Duke is a sub to anotherinstitution. If Duke is a sub to UNC and UNC is submitting to NSF, UNC will need to have all necessary materials well before NSF’s deadline.)
• The PI may be traveling during the sponsor’s deadline and wants to submit the proposal before he/she is unreachable.• The PI has sponsor permission to submit later than the Agency Due Date.
The proposal must be routed to ORS five business days before the Department Needs By date.
Use the arrow button to populate “Needs By” with the same date as the agency due date.
Use the calendar button on the right to enter a date other than the sponsor’s deadline.
