Overview
This web portal allows you to apply for computing time and data projects on different target sites.
The application procedure is split into multiple steps or panels.
The first panel lists all applications, which you have already filled. Here you
can choose to continue with an active application or you can start a new one.
Afterwards, a sequence of all required steps is presented in the top menu bar.
Navigation
Please, do not use the browser's back and forth buttons. This might cause loss of
already filled data. Either use the top menu
bar to go directly to the selected panel or use back and next in
the bottom menu.
As soon as you have created a new application or loaded an existing one, all
steps required for the application are listed in the top menu bar. You can
navigate through all steps in an arbitrary order by clicking on the corresponding
panel names. You can even postpone a panel, although there is data missing. This
allows you to easily get an overview of all requested data.
In the bottom menu bar a list of actions for the current panel is presented.
The buttons next and back are used to navigate through the panels step by step.
In addition, clicking on the next button runs a validation of the current panel. Only, if all
data is valid, the next panel is shown. The save action stores the progress of your
application. With exit the current application data is stored, and the list of
all your applications is shown. To clear the data filled into the current panel, press reset.
Data management
When switching from one panel to another all your data is stored immediately for the current
application. Before quitting the web page you can also use save to store all changes
on the current page. If you would like to continue with an application after quitting the web page,
a new identification mail needs to be sent to you.
Then a list of all your applications is shown with the option to further edit the application data.
After finalizing an application, it is no longer possible to edit your data. You can only print and
sign the application summary in order to send it to the Coordination Office for the Allocation of Computing Time.
