There is ONLY ONE Basic Field Grant Application; however, a different process is required to begin a Basic Field Grant Application for those in Renewal Status (Directed Application) versus those in Competitive Status (Competitive Application).
Renewal - Creating the Application
If grantees are in Renewal Status, they should begin their Basic Field Grant Application by locating the Renewal Application.
If users are Executive Directors, they will be able to locate their Renewal (Directed) Application in the Pending Tasks tab and select the directed opportunity. If users are general GrantEase users, they can locate their Renewal (Directed) Application under the opportunities tab.

Once in opportunities, the user will select the green eyeball icon next to the application that says 鈥淒irected.鈥
After selecting the green eyeball icon, users should qualify their application opportunity by selecting the Qualify button.

Competitive 鈥 Converting from Pre-Application to Application
If grantees are in competition, they must begin by converting their Pre-Application to a Basic Field Grant Application.
To convert a Pre-Application to a Basic Field Grant Application, users should navigate to the applications tab in the Second Tier Toolbar and then locate 鈥淧re-Applications鈥 in the Left-Hand Sidebar. Once on the Pre-Applications screen, users should identify the specific Pre-Application that they would like to convert to an application.

A Pre-Application ready for conversion will show accepted in the status column, which notifies the users it is ready for the next step of the application. Selecting the green eyeball icon next to an accepted Pre-Application will take the user to the screen to convert the Pre-Application to an application.
