Get In On the Action with IMS!
So while not exactly IMF (Impossible Mission Force) with Ethan Hunt crawling around the outside of an airplane, IMS (Inclusion Management System) has some exciting stuff happening
in it.
If you are a Signing Official or Principal Investigator, you will need to get in on that action! The best way to do that is to
not strap yourself to any kind of flying object, but instead, check out the tutorial video
IMS for Principal Investigators. This seven minute video outlines the steps on how to update or create new Inclusion Data Records (IDRs) from eRA Commons.
You can also read the
video transcript, or access the
Online Help. This is your mission, should you choose to accept it.
The message will self-destruct in 3, 2, 1…
