The assigned Role for Grants is only applicable to standard users in organizations using Apricot for Funders (AFF). Assigning this role will add Grants to the standard user’s My Apricot tab rather than the Administrator tab.

 

Follow the steps listed below to learn how to assign the Manage Grants role to standard users.

 

Step 1: Navigate to the user

In the Administrator view of Apricot, expand Access Control in the navigation bar and select Users.

A list of users in your Apricot site will be displayed. You can click the Search Field dropdown to filter the results by username, name, or other criteria. Select the Username of the standard user you want to assign the Manage Grants role.

Note: The ‘Link All’ button will select every role across every Product Area. The ‘Clear History’ button will undo any selected Roles.

  • Manage Grant Dashboard (AFF only): This role is only applicable to organizations using Apricot for Funders (AFF). The user can access the Grant Dashboard, see where an organization is within the grant process, and adjust their current grant phase.

The selected Role will display under ‘Links to be Added Upon Save’ in the Assigned Roles section.
