Frequently Asked Questions
Q: My project dates in PMC look wrong. I already updated them, but the deliverables haven't changed. Why?
A: Simply changing project or budget dates in the PMC project/award record will not update deliverables or notifications. You must follow the mini-requisition process outlined in this guide to generate a new/updated FARC, which then updates the deliverable due dates.
Q: I created a mini requisition, but now I need to change a date. The fields are locked. What happened?
A: You can only edit items on a mini-requisition when it is "in-process/pending." Once you acknowledge or sign the mini requisition, it becomes not editable. You would need to create a new mini requisition for further changes if the original has been fully processed.
Q: I submitted changes to my FARC, but I don't see any confirmation, and the system seems stuck. What should I do?
A: After clicking "Submit Changes" on the FARC, you need to wait until "Update Successful" with a date and time appears at the top of the screen. This update can take up to a minute to complete. Do not navigate away or select "Return to the Requisition Overview" before seeing this confirmation.
Q: Do I always have to complete both acknowledgements (Requisition Approval and Award Action Approval) right after each other?
A: While you receive notifications for each approval, you can choose to wait until the Contracting Officer has signed the modification. At that point, you can go back into the mini-requisition and complete both the "Acknowledge Requisition Approval" and "Acknowledge Award Action Approval" steps consecutively.
