    1. Dropdown: Commitment Actions 
      1. Select Add New Funding
    2. Dropdown: Is this commitment on behalf of a grant cycle?
      1. If you are marking funding on behalf of a grant cycle, choose the grant cycle listed in the dropdown box.

      1. Choose the grant type you wish to award the grantee, keeping in mind the following definitions: 
        1. A General Operating Grant is unrestricted and supports an organization's overall activities. These include but are not limited to operating expenses and overhead.
  1. A Program or Project Support Grant is restricted funding that typically supports a very specific project or activity of the organization. These grants are usually tied to specific project-based outcomes. 
  2. If the organization is fiscally sponsored, please select Program or Project Support Grant.
  1. You can add a comment in the Comment box indicating any special note about that funding.
  2. Tags field
