Step 1: Award Opportunity and Application Management

The Grant Opportunity (GTOP) transaction and the Grant Opportunity Status Folder (GTOPSF) are used to capture the opportunity information. Opportunity information from www.grants.gov can also be automatically downloaded into the Available Opportunity Detail (GTAOD) and Available Opportunity Summary (GTAOS) pages via the Grant Opportunity Update job. GTOP transactions can then be created directly from these pages. Refer to the “Grants.gov Opportunities” topic for more information.

Grant Users can manage the process of applying for a specific opportunity via the Grant Application Status Folder (GTAPSF) or Grant Application (GTAP) transaction, based on user authorization.
