Help For Image Retrieval System
Inactive Contract & Grant Files
Overview
The Image Retrieval System (IRS) allows authorized University employees to view
documentation imaged by Imaging and
Documentation Services. Document
images are displayed in PDF format via the free Adobe Acrobat Reader. Within
Acrobat the image can be enlarged, rotated, printed, and/or saved to a hard
drive. Images viewed on this Web site are considered official documents.
File documentation for inactive Contract & Grant accounts (i.e., 26 accounts) is scanned by IDS and retrieved for viewing in the IRS. Viewing authorization is limited to Financial Affairs departments.
File documentation for non-26 accounts is also maintained in the IRS. See the help for those files for additional information.
Authorization
In order to view account files you must have a
high-assurance EID.
You also need to have authorization for the *DEFINE CA3 command within specific
processing views which are authorized to view the files. For questions regarding
viewing authorization please contact
Contracts & Grants.
How To Use
1. Select "Inactive C&G Files" as the Image Type, enter the
8-digit account number
as the Search Value, and click "Get Image Info".
2. A screen listing multiple images will appear. Inactive Contracts and Grants files have two image categories for each account, one for contract information, and one for billing information.
3. Click on the Image number that you wish to view.
4. You can enlarge, rotate, print and/or save the image using the Adobe Acrobat features. See the help available within Acrobat for more information.
5. To navigate to another account file, enter a new account number as the search value and click "Get More Image Info".
6. To leave the system click "Logoff", or if you wish to continue with another UTDirect application, simply go that Web page.
Note: Sometimes there will be more than one billing or contract image if something is added to the file after the initial file has been imaged. If the information you are looking for is not in one image, try looking at another image with the same category name.
