Overview

This article describes the fixes made in this release for the Office of Naval Research (ONR) BAA cover page.



FED-648 (Missing BAA Cover Page Error Message and URL Updates)


Summary and Resolution

The ONR recently transitioned to the NRE cloud, which changed the location of the URL where they store the BAA Cover Page PDF. This necessitated a change to the associated URL and error message that displays when a valid cover page is not uploaded in a BAA response in FedConnect.


This issue is resolved, and now the error message and URL look like this:
