This service stores information about grants made by the organization to grantees.
Top Panel
Grant Name
The name of the grant.

The Currency Type field indicates the currency type for which the grant is based. This field links to the Currency Types service.

Approval Status (Required)

- In Progress: The Grant is currently in progress.
- Paid/Payments: Payments have been made towards the Grant.
- Closed: The Grant has been closed and is no longer Active.
- Cancelled: The Grant has been cancelled and is no longer Active.
Aptify automatically updates the status as the grant moves through its phases (for example, when a due diligence record is added, the status changes from Awaiting Funds to Awaiting Funds/Due Diligence Begun). You can also manually update the status as needed.
Note that saving a grant with a status of Closed or Cancelled locks down the field and prevents further updates.

Modifying the Caption for the Grantee Secondary/Grantee Executive Director Field
If the grantee is a company (the Organization Grantee option is selected), the Grantee Executive Director field is available to identify the executive director for the grantee company. If a user clears the Organization Grantee option, the Grantee Executive Director field is relabeled as the Grantee Secondary Contact field to identify the secondary contact for the grantee.
Due to the two possible meanings for this field, Aptify has implemented the following solution to update the caption of the Grantee Executive Director/Grantee Secondary Contact, depending on whether the grantee is a company or an individual:
- If you want to change the caption of the field when the grantee is a company (Grantee Executive Director label), modify the caption using the standard Visual Designer steps. See the "Copying and Modifying an Existing Form Template for more information on how to use the Visual Designer.
- If you want to change the caption of the field when the grantee is an individual (Grantee Secondary Contact label), modify the Local String of the Grantee Secondary Contact Culture Strings record to the appropriate label. See Working with Culture Strings for more information about modifying with culture strings.
