Medusa
The Medusa page of the Award document displays a graphical representation between one or more Proposal Development, Institutional Proposal and Award e-docs through the use of an expandable/collapsible tree view. These allow for the viewing of parent/child/sibling relationships between linked e-docs. Additionally, you are able to expand the view of summarized key information details about the document, view the notes associated with the document, and open the document from within the Medusa section.

|
Default Views: By default, Proposal > Award is the initial view. When there are no related documents to the currently-accessed Award document, the hierarchy is displayed as a single node. |
|
|
Sort Order: E-docs appear in the tree according to Document ID number in ascending order. |
Examples
