Better user experience

• Fix -NIHR can edit awards as expected. When NIHR users are searching for awards, and click on the "Edit" button to the right of the result, and then clicks the “Update” button; the user is taken back to e-Val > Awards, and a confirmation message appears confirming that the changes have been saved. This corrected an issue with users seeing an error page and changes to award not being saved.

Enhanced data collection

• Improve - Removed 'Protection not required' & 'Currently Copyright (e.g. Software)' from the drop down that RESEARCHERS fill in when creating a Intellectual Property & Licensing entry. When a RESEARCHER with awards on the platform visits Intellectual Property & Licensing and ‘Add new entry' and clicks on 'Select the phrase that best describes the protection this discovery/development has received,’ the option for ‘Currently Copyright (e.g. Software)’ and 'Protection not required' now does not appear in the dropdown.

Enabling data exploration & insights 

• Fix - UKRI Narrative Impact Data no longer appears to be truncated; An instance of the Narrative impact record was being truncated and hyphens were removed. This has been corrected.
