Create a Funding Action

In SPAERC there are several ways to create a Funding Action. This section provides instructions for creating a Funding Action via the following methods:

The best practice is to create an FA as the child of the appropriate application.

  2. Click Actions+ next to the application number, and then select Create New Action.
  3. In the Unidentified Admin Action (AA) form that opens, hover over Change the Action Type and select Funding Action.
  4. Click OK to confirm that you want to convert this Admin Action (AA) to a Funding Action.

When you change the Admin Action to an FA, the prefix of the system assigned ID changes from AA to FA. The parent of the FA is the application from which you created the AA.
