Project Sponsors

 

Enables the association of sponsors with the project, as well as a principal sponsor.

The main Sponsor details must be entered and modified via the Administration > Sponsors section.

 

The Sponsor Key Contact field can be 'overridden' when linking to a project, just in case something differs from project to project.

To revert back to the main Key Contact for the sponsor, simply blank the entry and save.

n.b. The text box may not display an empty value, as it will always display either :-

the specific Key Contact override applied to the project, or

the main Key Contact.

n.b.b. On selecting a Sponsor from the drop-down, select 'Save' to see the current/default Key Contact person.

 

Sponsors can also be linked to Users via the Administration > Users > User Edit page (for Sponsor type users).

If they are linked, then the interface shows the  icon on the list for that Sponsor.

In addition, the user now gets to 'see' this project by default; as per the Project Users page.
