NOT-OD (continued) Key Changes for October 17, 2014, and beyond: (1) Inclusion enrollment report forms received with competing application submissions will automatically populate the IMS. (2) NIH grantees completing their RPPR (Research Progress Performance Report) will be prompted in Item G.4.b to access and update inclusion records directly in IMS. (3) Grantees will be able to access their inclusion enrollment data through the IMS, found through the eRA Commons Status page, and can review or update their inclusion data as needed. (4) NIH will migrate ongoing enrollment information from the previous data system to the IMS. Because the report format has been adjusted, grantees will be prompted to update Cumulative Inclusion Enrollment data in the IMS format at the time of the RPPR. They are encouraged to update Planned Enrollment data as well.
