RoboRA quick start guide 1/18/2018 Credits: Jack Snoeyink (author); Grace Yuan (ENG host, testing, & design); Wendy Nilsen (template language); Jim Donlon (workflow); & many testers RoboRA, an Excel spreadsheet in the PD-3PO family of tools, attempts to automate many of the tedious parts of writing Review Analysis (RA) documents: It populates RA templates (such as the Awd template on back) with reportserver data to make Word RA drafts, which you complete on Mac or PC, then click one button to CleanCopy to eJacket. It can also gather review documents into a bookmarked pdf, list amounts from the latest revised budget, and flag miscodes. Installing RoboRA: From a PC on the NSF network or the Virtual Desktop/Citrix Win 7 or Win 10 Desktop, click RoboRA_v0.8.xlsm and when Excel Online complains, click Open in Excel: Enable content, and on the Prefs tab, set the first three. (Defaults are good for the rest.) 1. Test the reportserver connection using your division's userid and password 2. Choose your RA templates by selecting from the table. 3. Save your copy of RoboRA on your R: drive or a local drive. (Word mail merge cannot use a data source from SharePoint or OneDrive.) Using RoboRA In the basic interface, you list proposal ids to award, decline, or standard decline. Use the menu to restrict proposal status, and buttons to Query reportserver and gather Review Docs. Check the coding, then make RA Drafts. In the advanced interface, you specify a set of proposals like in PD-3PO (say, all pending by program, solicitation, PD, date) and select on the RAData tab which template to use (Awd, Decline, Std Decline, etc.) The reverse shows a template. In preference 2, if you chose a template folder on your machine, RoboRA will copy the standard templates for you to customize as desired. Keep in mind that individual customization increases the workload of those doing DD concur.

I also considered this proposal in relation to other proposals reviewed in this program, the need to maintain appropriate balance among subfields, the total amount of funds available to the program for new proposals, and general Foundation policies. I concur with the reviewers’ assessment and recommend that this project be funded as described below.
