The TIP tab is the second tab on the Actions interface.
Function
The TIP tab displays the list of project changes awaiting endorsement by the MPO that were previously submitted on the Staging tab. Users with TIP Administrator or STIP Administrator permissions can select change items for processing; however, users with TIP Administrator permissions can only edit the projects for the MPO which they are assigned access to in User Maintenance.
Filters
The TIP tab data can be filtered by using the dropdowns beside the "Filters" title. When the tab is initially displayed, the filters will be set to MPO = Anchorage MPO. However, the user can change the MPO to "Fairbanks MPO" or select the "Show All" filter to display all pending changes.
Controls
There are some controls offered in the TIP tab:
| Control | Used To... |
| TIP Revisions Report Link | Open the Revision Summary for the projects displayed on the TIP tab. |
| Filters Dropdown | Choose Show All or MPO to filter the projects listed. If the user selects MPO, they must select Fairbanks or Anchorage in the second picklist. |
| Action to Take (for all blanks) Dropdown | Update the Action picklist for all displayed projects where the Action field is currently blank. |
| Change Comments Link | Show the change comment associated with the project. |
| Save Changes Button | Process the changes in the tab. |
| Discard Changes Button | Reset all of the Action picklists back to the last saved selections. |
Actions
When project changes are submitted on the Staging tab, those that need MPO approval will land on the TIP tab. Then, the user will be able to select from two available actions for these project changes:
| Action | Description |
| Endorse | This option progresses the change to the Pre-Approved tab where it can be assigned to a STIP Revision. All changes endorsed by an MPO are captured in an email and sent to the STIP Administrator as a notification. |
| Reject | This option will move the change back to the Staging tab where it’s default Action is set to "MPO Rejected." All changes rejected by an MPO are captured in an email and sent to the STIP Administrator as a notification. |
These "Actions" can be selected for project changes individually ("Action" columns) or in bulk ("Action to Take (for all blanks)" picklist). To save these selections, the user can click "Save Changes."
