Establishing Professional Controls

This topic discusses how to set up professional controls for PeopleSoft Grants using the Honors and Award Table (GM_HON_AWARD_TBL), Membership Table (GM_MEMBERSHIP_TBL), and Publication Table (PUBLICATION_TBL ) components.

The pages in these components, which populate the professional profile pages, enable you to establish honors and awards, memberships, and publications for professionals.

Note: You can use PeopleSoft Grants to import professional data from HRMS tables. Because this is a one-way feed, data that you manipulate in PeopleSoft Grants is not updated in the source system.

Enter all publication information (publication title, publication name, publisher, and so on). Then, select the author type and enter the name of the author.

You must enter information before associating it with a professional. Because the order of authors' names is crucial for proper credit in many research fields, authors' names must appear in the same order in which they appear in the publication.
