Return Continuation
The Return Continuation action allows SAMHSA grants staff to delete a grantee-submitted unawarded Type 5 continuation application and send the grantee notification of the return via the Correspondence feature.
Note: This action deletes the application and all associated documentation and data, including the e-application, checklists, correspondence, etc. If you want to preserve any of these materials, you must manually download them before completing the return continuation process: The return process cannot be undone.
The grantee – following instructions found in the received correspondence – will either edit and submit the application again or delete the application completely and restart/resubmit, depending on SAMHSA’s guidance (based on business decisions).
Follow these steps to return the continuation application and notify the grantee:
- In the Grant Portfolio screen, search for the continuation application to return.
- In the hitlist, click the
plus icon for the core grant number to expand the Continuation History section:
- Select the Return Continuation action link for the submitted continuation application.
Note: If necessary, remember to manually download any information from the grant folder or correspondence before you perform this action. - A confirmation dialog screen appears with a warning that you are about to delete the application.
- Click OK in the confirmation screen to complete the action.
- A dialog will open to notify you that the deletion was successful. Click OK in this screen.
- The Correspondence screen opens:
- Select either the EDIT_CONTINUATION template or the DELETE_CONTINUATION template as appropriate
- Update the body of the email, adding any necessary comments.
- Click the Generate Email button.
