UCSF Will Retire the Effort Reporting System on June 30, 2022

Last month, Contracts & Grants Accounting (CGA) announced plans to retire the Effort Reporting System (ERS) by June. Users will be unable to access ERS after June 30, 2022. Effort reports and related activity through June 30, 2022, will be archived.

All effort reports must be certified prior to being archived. CGA is following the established effort report escalation process to complete outstanding effort reporting certifications for all previous cycles. The last effort reporting certification cycle at UCSF was completed in August 2020 for the period of January 1 through May 2, 2020.

If you have questions or concerns about the effort reporting process, the effort reporting escalation process, or if you are uncertain about how to proceed or obtain recertification, contact Contracts & Grants Compliance.
