Science Keyword

 

The Science Keyword (a.k.a. ‘Keyword’ or ‘Keywords’) maintenance document is used to establish and maintain numeric codes and textual description values which are stored in database tables.  This data serves as reference information that is made available for display and selection in various areas of the system, including other e-docs.

The Keyword maintenance document provides a means for maintaining the science keywords used for reference and selection in proposal preparation.  Keyword is a term that describes the discipline of a sponsored project (e.g. sustainable agriculture, children's literature, etc.).   These are shared reference tables that may be used by other modules and/or e-docs in the system.
