The (ORA@UMD) KR Extension for Power Users is a Chrome browser extension developed by Zach Friedman from the Office of Research Administration at the University of Maryland. This free extension is designed to enhance the user experience when using Kuali Research.

With this extension, users can enjoy several time-saving features. Firstly, it pre-populates notice dates with the current date in new award documents and time and money documents, eliminating the need for manual input. This streamlines the process and reduces the chance of errors.

Secondly, the extension hides all traces of the "Baltimore Only" direct F&A fields. This feature helps to declutter the interface, allowing users to focus on the relevant information without any distractions.

Lastly, the extension provides the option to enable or disable it as needed. This can be done by simply clicking the ORA icon in the browser. Users have the flexibility to activate or deactivate the extension based on their specific requirements.

The (ORA@UMD) KR Extension for Power Users is a valuable tool for individuals who frequently use Kuali Research. It helps to optimize workflow efficiency and improve user experience. By automating certain tasks and providing customization options, this extension enhances productivity and saves time.
