This page allows the user to perform a limited search on the CT (where the transaction sub-type equals CT), CMR, MA, and MMR Transaction Types or create the aforementioned transactions. The Create action transitions you to the Transaction Catalog, which allows you to create transactions.
When any of the aforementioned transaction types are created, the system automatically writes the appropriate information to both the Transaction Catalog and Contract Catalog tables. In addition to displaying additional information in the grid, the Contract Catalog allows users to filter data on the Modification Transaction Information fields (that is, Modification Transaction Code, Modification Transaction ID, Modification Transaction Dept and Modification Transaction Unit) or on Contract Information such as Contract Transaction Code, Contract Transaction ID, Contract Transaction Dept or Contract Transaction Unit.
There are three main groupings for searching (Standard, Award Modification, and Award)
Standard - Works just like Transaction Catalog search fields. The result set will return transactions that match your search criteria.
Award Modification - These fields allow you to search on the modification transactions (MMR and CMR) and will return the corresponding MA or CT.
Award – these fields allow you to search on the base transaction (MA or CT) and will return both the MA or CT and any corresponding MMR or CMR transactions.
