Tri-Agency - NEW RULES for DELEGATION of Signing Authority

Published: 26 October 2016

Dear Colleagues,

Further to the Memorandum circulated last month regarding the Tri-Agency Monitoring Site Visit Results, I would like to highlight the following change for the delegation of signing authority as stipulated by the Tri-Agency:

  • As grant holders, PIs can delegate signing authority on expenses when necessary to a co-investigator or a member of their research staff, such as a lab manager or research associate.
  • Administrative staff should not be designated as signing delegates, as they are not sufficiently familiar and/or involved in the research to authorize expenses on the grant holder鈥檚 behalf.

This impacts the choice of delegate set-up using the Minerva menu option Delegate Temporary Signing Authority & the menu option Delegate Approvals of Purchase Requisitions and PCard Transactions. All of our documentation and Minerva HELP text have been updated to reflect this change.

Thank you.
