Administering sponsors enables them to be added, edited, and disabled. Disabling stops them appearing in any selection list.
In addition, they can have numerous address and contact details, as well as designating one of each type as a primary address/contact.
These in turn appear in the tooltips of the project listing page.
By default, the list is ordered by :-
•Last Name,
•First Name.
There are two (2) ways of filtering the sponsors list :-
1.Using the advanced filter (see details on filter criteria here) or
2.Entering basic text into the search text box and selecting the ‘Filter’ button.
In either event, the tooltip for the filter text box displays the filtering criteria that will be used. Refer to the advanced filter section for more details.
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 and edit pages for that Sponsor.
In addition, the user now gets to 'see' all projects where the Sponsor is associated via the Project Sponsors page.
The Project Users page indicates this automatic link for the Sponsor user, with details in the tooltip of the icon.
