KR Attachments Issue – Fixed!

Dear Colleagues,

The attachments issue described in my email last week (copied below) has been resolved. Our IT group identified the glitch and has applied the fix to the system. No system downtime is required for this fix to become effective.

You are now able to not copy over attachments from an old proposal to a new proposal if you so choose. The attachments in the old proposal will remain and will not be deleted.


Please contact the ERA team at era@research.uci.edu if you have any questions.


Thanks!
Jonathan

Subject: KR Attachments Issue – Workaround
Importance: High

Dear Colleagues,

An issue in KR was recently reported in which for certain KR documents, the attachments included on the Attachments section could not be accessed – you would get an error when trying to view or download the attachments.

The cause of the issue has been found. When you copy a proposal document, you are presented with the option to copy over the attachments. If you choose not to copy over the attachments – meaning you do not check the box, the system would then ‘delete’ the attachments from the original proposal document:

Our IT group is working hard to find a solution to this issue.

In the meantime, to prevent attachments in the old proposal from being deleted, when copying a proposal – always select to Include the Attachments. Then, once copied to the new proposal document, you can delete the attachments by clicking on the trash can icon:

We will notify you once a fix for this has been deployed.


If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the ERA Team at era@research.uci.edu.


Thanks,
Jonathan
