GM-GTE Master Data Customizing: Sponsored Class/Sponsored Program 

Use

Sponsored classes are used to group expenses and revenues together by type of financial transaction to satisfy a sponsor’s reporting requirements. Sponsored programs group these sponsored class balances together by specific purposes, determined by the sponsor.

Authorization groups are used to group grants and other Grantee Management (GM-GTE) objects together for authorization purposes. You need to do this for sponsored classes and programs. You can also specify text descriptions (text IDs) for the classes/programs.
