January 2020 Maintenance Release

SAGE Suite-Wide

Session Timeout Handling Improvements

When any open SAGE Suite application is left idle for 40 minutes (this can vary if you have other applications open that require UW authentication), users will now see an on-screen warning that their SAGE session will time out in 5 minutes without further activity. Renewing your 45 minute session can be done by simply clicking 鈥淜eep Working鈥� in the warning pop-up. If your session expires, the system will automatically redirect you to a login page. This change will provide clear and consistent handling of session time-outs, reducing user confusion and accidental data loss.

SAGE eGC1

Improved eGC1 Status Handling at the Time of Award

An eGC1鈥檚 status changes to 鈥淎warded鈥� when a child funding action is initially sent to GCA. However, there were certain circumstances when the eGC1 status wasn鈥檛 updating appropriately if the child funding action was returned to OSP and then re-parented to a new eGC1. To catch these cases, the eGC1 status will also update to 鈥淎warded鈥� if the child funding action is 鈥淩e-Sent by OSP鈥� to GCA. Existing eGC1s in 鈥淎pproved鈥� status with a child funding action in 鈥淧rocessed鈥� status were updated to 鈥淎warded鈥� status.

SPAERC

Update Subaward Expiration Rules (delayed release)

The nightly batch job that updates the subaward status was simplified, and now evaluates Subaward End Date only. If the Subaward End Date is in the past, then the status is changed to 鈥淓xpired鈥�. If a new modification is approved, the subaward status will be changed to Active once again.
