E-Nessi: general information + instructions
Maj and Tor Nessling Foundation uses the electronic grant system called E-NESSI. Through the system you can submit grant applications, requests for payment and project reports. You can also track the payment records of your project and update your contact information.
How to start using E-NESSI?
To log into the system, you need a user name and a password. If you have previously used E-NESSI, you already have a user name and a password. If you have forgotten your password, you can get it through a link on the login screen. If you have not used E-NESSI before, you can register to the system on the login screen. E-NESSI considers the person making the application to be the project leader. Therefore, a new application must be made using the login information of the intended project leader.
When you have logged into the system, you can see your unfinished applications, active projects, reports, project history and pending actions (for example, approving joining researches, filling in the request for payment, or reporting) listed on the main page. The main page is empty if you have not used the system earlier. You can select an application, report, project or function from the list by clicking on them.
Profile
On the top of the screen there is a my profile link, through which you can find the links personal information and change password. On the personal information -page you can update your contact details and other information that will be used as the basis for new applications and as contact information for the Foundation. Please note that the profile updates will not be updated to the applications that you have finished previously.
Navigating and saving the forms
You can move through the pages of an application or a funded project by clicking the navigation buttons on the left side bar of the screen or on the opening forms. On the left side bar you can see the available functions. Write or select the information to the fields on the forms and save them one screen at a time using the buttons on the forms. The links and functions on the left side bar will not save the information.
Viewing and printing reports or applications
You can any time view or print a report or an application in one form by clicking the View printable form button (PDF icon). Leave the form by closing Adobe Acrobat. Print the form by clicking the print button in the PDF-window. The commitment page can be printed for signing by clicking Print commitment (PDF icon). If you cannot open the PDF files, your browser probably does not allow pop-up windows. You can change your browser settings to allow pop-up windows (Instructions).
Permissions
The project leader has the widest range of options available in the research group. He or she can prepare applications, see all information on the project (such as personal information and payment records of all project persons), approve and send reports and requests for payment, and allow other researchers to join the project in E-NESSI. Grantees can fill in/update their own personal information, fill in payments schedules for personal grants (project leader must, however, approve and send them), and view all other project information, except the personal information and payment records of other researchers.
