Roman-1.3-Dev3 06/01/2022

  • Super users click "Admin CMA" button to have all admin privileges.
  • Super users can see ALL the proposals submitted by clicking "Proposals". The page has proposal Id, Title, Sci Category, Type, list of panels the proposal is in, the dropdown menu for choosing panel for this proposal if two or less panels it's on, and Last Update date. All columns are sortable but not the list of panels.
  • In each proposal page, super users can see which panels this proposal is on. The panel names are a link to the panel.
  • Super users can see ALL the panels by clicking "Panels". The page has panel name, panel category, panel chair, # of reviewers, # of proposals, and last update date.
  • In each single panel page, super users can fill in panel's name (following a convention), select panel category, add (auto complete)/delete reviewers, select chair and add(auto complete)/delete proposals. Ideally one person can be in one panel and one proposal can be on one panel, but we only provide the warnings if one person or one proposal is put on more than one panel. Super users will resolve the situation. The links of reviewers and proposals in the page can help super users to see which other panels they are in.
