Searching for Projects

Project searching is a quick and simple way to find matching records in Novelution. In most cases, you can find a specific project by searching for its corresponding Project ID, Sponsor Award Number, Title, or Oracle Number. Search filters can also be applied to help narrow your results.

There are two different search pages in Novelution: one for Proposals and Awards, and the other for Subawards. You are only able to search for a record from its corresponding search page.

Searching for Proposals and Awards

1. Open the Sponsored Research menu from the navigation toolbar
2. Select the Search Proposals and Awards activity
3. Using the available search fields, enter one of the following identifiers:
   • Project ID - The main identification number of the project in Novelution (for example, SRS00012345)
   • Award # - The Sponsor Award Number (or FAIN) found in the award record
   • Title - Any keyword(s) found in the title of the project
   • Oracle # - The corresponding Oracle number that has been added to the award record

Novelution will display a real-time list of matching options as the information is typed into the search fields. Clicking on a result will open the corresponding record in the same browser tab.

Searching for Subawards

1. Open the Sponsored Research menu from the navigation toolbar
2. Select the Search Subawards activity
3. Using the Subaward ID search field, enter the first few digits of the record number

Novelution will display a real-time list of matching options as the information is typed into the search field. Clicking on a result will open the corresponding record in the same browser tab.
