xTRACT requirements for RPPRS due on or after Oct 1
For Research Perforance Progress Reports (RPPRs) due on or after October 1, 2019, NIH and AHRQ will mandate that required training data tables submitted with T32, TL1, T90/R90, and T15 applications, and progress reports be created via the xTRACT system. Extramural Trainee Reporting And Career Tracking, or xTRACT, is a module in the eRA Commons that allows applicants, grantees, and assistants to create research training tables for NIH progress reports and institutional training grant applications. xTRACT is integrated with eRA Commons, so some training data will be prepopulated in the system, including trainee names, selected characteristics, institutions, grant numbers, and subsequent NIH and other HHS awards.
System validations in the RPPR module will check to ensure that tables were created via xTRACT, and tables not created in xTRACT will not be able to be submitted.
View the NIH Guide Notice NOT-OD-19-108 for more information or visit Help and Tutorials page for xTRACT for additional resources.
