Documentation

Definition

The sponsored program is a fundamental part of the sponsor's view. It is a dimension that defines, in the sponsor's view and terms, a program to be funded. Whenever a grantee has to report back to the sponsor, the sponsored program is in fact, the program dimension that the sponsor will recognize.

Use

The sponsored program is used to group costs in order to satisfy the sponsor's view and reporting needs; it is used in all Grants Management (GM) activities. One grant might fund several sponsored programs and one sponsored program might be funded by several grants.

The sponsored program provides a link between GM and Funds Management (FM). In particular, it provides a link to funds centers, functional areas, and funded programs for the purpose of budget transfers.

The assignment tool should be used to derive the sponsored program during actual postings.
