GM-GTE Customizing: Cost Sharing 

Use

Some sponsors require that grantees fund some of the cost of the project(s) being sponsored. To address this requirement, you need to enter rules that govern how grant-related costs are shared between the grantee organization and the sponsor.

Procedure

To maintain the cost sharing rules, proceed as follows:

...

       1.      In the Grants Management – Grantee (GM-GTE) part of the Implementation Guide (IMG), choose Cost Sharing ® Configure Cost Sharing Rules.

The Change View “Cost Sharing Rule Maintenance”: Screen appears.

       2.      Choose New Entries and enter the following:

¡        Number for the new rule

¡        Text for the new rule

§         Total direct costs

You are required to share in the direct costs for a project.

§         Total grant costs

You are required to share in the total costs, including indirect costs, for a project.

       3.      When you have finished, save your entries.
