Clicking View Utilization on the E-Rate Funding page displays utilization for all FRNs. Clicking View Utilization on the FRN Detail page displays the utilization logged against that FRN. Both pages provide the same functionality. There are two tabs at the top – Search and Create File. The view defaults to Search. This lets you:
-
Edit or delete a utilization entry.
-
Search for usage on a specific FRN and/or date range.
The ellipsis button in the right column for each row displays a menu that lets you edit or delete the entry. The grid results can be exported.

Editing a Utilization Record
Users assigned the Product Catalog Admin role with Manage E-Rate permission can edit a utilization record. Right-click on the ellipsis in the applicable row and choose Edit to display the Update Utilization dialog. In the example below the E-Rate amount for this log entry is being adjusted down.
You can see the result in the updated Utilization view.
Deleting a Utilization Record
Users assigned the Product Catalog Admin role with Manage E-Rate permission can edit a utilization record. Right-click on the ellipsis in the applicable row and choose Delete. When you delete a record, the system reverses the previous adjustment. You are prompted to confirm the delete request.
Searching for Utilization
Whether you navigate to the Utilization page from the FRN Detail or E-Rate Funding page, the Search tab lets you search for a specific FRN or enter a date range.
Note
When using FRN as search criteria, the entry must be an exact match. Wildcards are not permitted.
The result for the above search is shown below.
Viewing Remaining Amount for an FRN
The remaining amount is the approved amount minus all utilization (sum of E-Rate amount) for the FRN. The remaining amount for each FRN is displayed as a column in the search results, and is also available on the FRN Details view.
