Document lookup
Award documents stored in the Document Lookup are documents received by SPF through July 30, 2023. New documents can be accessed in the Oracle PPM Awards Space.
The SPF award document lookup allows you to view award documents that SPF keeps in the BFS imaging system, iDocs. iDocs stores documents and images. A single document may contain multiple images. SPF organizes the documents into primary and secondary categories.
Documents are sorted by the date that they were entered into iDocs by SPF. However, you can re-sort the columns as desired.
Access
With access, you will be able to view any documents SPF has scanned related to any executed award within your department(s). You cannot add or edit documents.
To get access, ask your sponsored projects manager, MSO, or DBO to submit a request through Services & Support. They must include:
- Your name
- Your Business Systems userid
- Department name(s) and department code(s) for any additional departments you need access to in addition to your home department
If you change departments, your new MSO will need to reauthorize you.
