Chart of Accounts Codes - Grant Administration Tab

Access this tab using Maintain>Chart of Accounts Codes. It is only available if the Grant Administration module is installed.

Use this tab to record administrative information about your grant. You can record the Account Number assigned to the grant and the person in your organization that is responsible for it, along with specific details about the actual grant awarded.

As the Administrator, you must have previously selected a segment (Organization>Set Up Modules>Grant Administration) to use with the Grant Administration module. This segment, along with a code, must be selected on the Setup tab of this form in order to access this tab.

Note: This tab will be read-only if the Activate Grant Management Integration check box is selected by the Administrator on the Organization>Set Up Modules>Grant Administration form. You should have checked that box if you own the Grant Management module and prefer to maintain your grant information there.
