The Grant Amendment (GTAM) transaction allows a Grant User to enter an amendment for a specific Grant Award. The Grant Amendment Status provides central tracking of amendment(s) to a previously awarded grant. The Grant Amendment transaction can be created via Copy Forward on Grant Award and Grant Award Revision transactions or it can be created via the Transaction Catalog.
The Grant Amendment transaction updates the Grant Amendment Status Folder (GTAMSF). If modifications are needed to the Grant Amendment once the record has been added to the GTAMSF table you must create a Grant Amendment Revision (GTAMR) transaction or update the record directly on the GTAMSF table, based on user authorization. Grant Amendment Revision transactions must use an existing Grant Opportunity ID, Grant ID and Amendment Number, a new value cannot be created and an existing value cannot be changed or deleted. You cannot delete a Status record using the Grant Amendment Revision transaction. In this case, an entire Amendment record must be deleted from the Status Folder directly. Refer to the "GT Transaction Type" section for additional information about grant revision transactions.
The Grant Amendment (GTAM) Transaction Code contains the following tabs; only 2 of the tabs (Header and Grant Amendment) must be completed to successfully submit the GTAM transaction to Final.
