Sponsor Type

 

The Sponsor Type 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.  This e-doc allows you to maintain reference table records for types of sponsors that are typically available for receiving research project proposal submissions.

Existing Value Modification:  Existing values can be edited as long as the description is synonymous with the original term. This list impacts S2S submission.
