Using the Grant Adjustment Request tool, you can de-obligate all of the remaining uncommitted funds from a subgrantee’s grant award.
To de-obligate grant funds:
From the home page, verify the desired grant year is selected in the grant year drop-down menu located in the upper right portion of the SPARS window.
Navigate to the Administration Menu and click the Grant Adjustment Request link located in the Project Administration section. The Grant Adjustment Request: Step 1 page displays.
Select the De-obligate all remaining uncommitted funds from a subgrantee’s grant award radio button in the Transfer Project Funds field. The page refreshes to display only the Region and Subgrantee drop-down menus.
Select the desired options from the Region and Subgrantee drop-down menus. The Grant Group field displays below the Subgrantee field once a Region has been selected.
If the selected subgrantee does not have uncommitted funds, was not granted an award, or has a GAN in process for the specified grant year, an error message displays.
Click the Continue >> button in the Actions: Step 1 section. The Grant Adjustment Request: Step 2 page displays.
Review the information presented in the chart to ensure that the funds displayed in the Funds to Transfer column should be de-obligated.
Once you have verified the funds for de-obligation, click the Continue >> button in the Actions: Step 2 section. The Grant Adjustment Request: Step 3 page displays.
Review the breakdown of the funds to be de-obligated in the Project Changes, Grant Changes, and Expenditure Items charts.
Enter the reason for the de-obligation request in the Reason field.
Once all information has been reviewed and you are certain the uncommitted funds are ready for de-obligation, click the Submit button in the Actions: Step 3 section. The Grant Adjustment Request: Step 1 page displays with a message verifying that your request has been submitted.
