View Post-Submission Errors

When an application is submitted, the offering agency performs certain validations against the application. If errors exist, the application is put into a status of Submission Errors. ASSIST users with the proper authority can view these errors and make corrections before re-submitting the application to the Agency. Also see Submit, Track and View Your Application.

The errors and warnings returned by the Agency and Grants.gov are viewable from the status detail page for the application. To view post-submission errors on an application:

1. Perform a search to locate and select the application.

2. Select the View Submission Status Details link in the Status field of the Application Information page.

   

   The application status details display in a separate window. Refer to the help topic titled View Submission Details for information about this page. When Grants.gov post-submission errors exist, the View Grants.gov Submission Errors link displays. If Agency errors and warnings exist, the View Agency Submission Errors and Warnings link displays.

3. Select the appropriate link to view the errors and warnings.
