Find Grant Distribution

Use Find Distribution to search for Grant Distributions already in your database. Grant Distribution information is stored in the database by the fields completed in the Add- Grant Distribution process. When using the Find-Grant Distribution form, you search for a desired Grant Distribution using information stored in the database via these fields. Search results on the List-Grant Distribution page display in columns, and each column of search results corresponds to a data field. Only a limited, pre-defined set of columns pertaining to Grant Distribution are available to you on the Find-Grant Distribution page.

Find

  1. To search for Grant Distributions already in your association's database, go to Modules>Grants>Grants Distribution>Find Distribution. The Find-Grant Distribution page opens.
  2. For a more specific search, click the Advanced View check box. Expanded Boolean search options appear for each search criteria field. Use these search options to narrow your search results further.
  3. Click Go. A list of search results displays in the List-Grant Distribution page. If only one result comes of the search, the profile page for that result opens.

Note: The more specific you make search criteria, the narrower the results returned are. A search for a program code beginning with "F" returns more results than a search for a program code beginning with "Full." And a search for all records with a program code starting with a "T" will produce more results than a search of program codes starting with a "T" with a specific Applicant.

Find vs. Query

Most Finds and Queries in NetForum are run in CRM. The Find page is set up with a predefined set of columns (fields) versus a Query which allows you to select from any column in the table.

Tip: If you are not sure what you are looking for, use the NetForum wildcard character, the percent sign (%), to help you with your search. This is especially helpful when used in conjunction with the contains option on the program code and Applicant fields.
