TasksThe Grant Opportunity and Notification Statuses provide central tracking of the opportunities selected by the grant managers which should be pursued by the governmental entity and any Departments/Units that were notified about these opportunities. The Grant Opportunity (GTOP) transaction allows you to enter opportunity information and to specify the Grant Users who will be notified about the grant opportunity.
The Grant Opportunity transaction updates the Grant Opportunity Status Folder (GTOPSF) and the Grant Notification Status Folder (GTNTSF). If modifications are needed to the Grant Opportunity once the record has been added to the GTOPSF table you must create a Grant Opportunity Revision (GTOPR) transaction or update the record directly on the GTOPSF table, based on user authorization. If the Grant Opportunity Status field on the Grant Opportunity Status Folder has a value of Canceled, then a revision transaction cannot be created. You cannot delete a GTOPSF record using the Grant Opportunity Revision transaction, instead, an entire Grant Opportunity record must be deleted from the Status Folder directly. Refer to the "GT Transaction Type" section for additional information about grant revision transactions.
The GTOP and GTOPR transactions may be copied forward to create either a Grant Application or Grant Response transaction.
You can cancel a GTOP Transaction if the Grant Opportunity ID is not used on Grant Application or Award pages.
The GTOP/GTOPR transactions include the following tabs; only two of the tabs (Header and Grant Opportunity) must be completed to successfully submit the GTOP/GTOPR transaction to Final. In turn, Grant Managers can refrain from updating the Alert User Group or Grant Notification tabs if they solely want to track the opportunity without notifying Grant Users.
