Differences Between FY23 and FY24 Reports

FY23 was the first year Annual Reports were submitted through National PEARS. As there wasn’t a FY23 plan in the system to generate the FY23 report from, adjustments were made to the system to help facilitate data entry. The following list briefly outlines a few features that will vary from FY23 reports. 
Setup 
There will not be a setup module for FY24 reports. All goal and IA data will be pulled from your FY24 plan. 
Copy 
Projects, evaluations, and coordination and collaboration will be copied from your planned items in FY24.
