Step 4—Editing and Adding Entries
Completing or updating sections
Click the
(Edit) icon to access and complete or update a section (e.g., the Identification
section). All mandatory fields are indicated with an *. When you have completed an entry (or
“record”) within a section that allows for multiple records, a Submit? box will appear beside the
entry. Check the box if you want that specific record to appear on your SSHRC CCV.
When you have completed a section, click Done. You must click Done in each section in order
to save the information you have entered for that section and to return to the list of sections.
Creating multiple entries in a section
To create additional entries (or “records”) in a section, click Add. You must select one entry as
your “Primary Record.”
In those sections that allow for the creation of multiple records, a Submit? box will appear
beside each entry created. Please check the box if you want that specific record to appear on your
SSHRC CCV.
Some sections limit the number of records to a maximum number (e.g., up to three records for
Address).
Confirming which sections have been completed
Once all of the mandatory fields of a section have been completed, a green checkmark will
appear next to the name of that section in the list of sections. Note that a green checkmark may
also mean the section is not mandatory for the SSHRC CCV. If mandatory fields of a section
have not been completed, a red X will appear next to the name of the section.
Step 5—Exporting the SSHRC CCV
Once you have completed the SSHRC CCV, click Transfer in the top menu bar. Then click
Export.
Click Export. This will create a .xml document containing your SSHRC CCV
A download window will appear. Click Save to save the .xml file on your computer. You may
rename this file if you wish.
Step 6—Uploading the SSHRC CCV
Return to the Research Community Portal and go to your Welcome Page.
Find the intended application. Click Open. This will take you to the Application Overview page.
Within the Canadian Common CV Uploads section, click Upload. The Common CV Upload
page will appear.
Enter the title of your SSHRC CCV. Click Select. Choose your corresponding CCV file. Click
Open. Then click Upload.
A message will appear indicating that you have successfully uploaded your CCV.
