Defining Grant Management Codes

When you set up an award in Grant Management, you will enter information to identify award details such as the type of project the award is for. Award details can be specific to your organization. You must define your grants codes before you can complete any award setup.

Use Codes (GM02.1) to identify the following types of codes associated with grants: award types (AW), transfer reason codes (CT), business lines (BU), deliverables (DE), divisions (DI), departments (DP), protocols (PC), project types (PJ), prime sponsors (SP), and protocol statuses (ST). After you define codes, the variables you created for each code become options in their related field on Award (GM01.1). The codes you defined can be used on multiple awards.
