Key Term, Role & Acronym Definitions & Synonyms
Overview: This glossary is a compilation of the business terminology relevant to the Kuali Coeus (KC) system. It also includes any technical terminology that users of the system must understand as well as some general research administration terminology. Terms include common abbreviations, acronyms and roles, while definitions may include synonyms.
The maintainers of this archive are not necessarily the authors or maintainers of the individual term or acronym definitions appearing in this glossary. To correct or contribute to this document, send an e-mail to kc.doc.collab@kuali.org. Contributions of others may be copyright of those individuals. You may copy and distribute this document in any form provided you acknowledge this source. Exclusion of a term does not necessarily mean it is not acceptable.
Purpose: The purpose of the KC Glossary is to foster common understanding of terminology between the users and developers of the system. Terms are listed alphabetically by term, acronym or abbreviation, not by meaning. These are general in nature, as compared with the usage-specific descriptions found in field definitions for each screen, e-doc page, or section.
Context-sensitive, functional field descriptions can be found interspersed throughout the KC Online Help and User Documentation set. Refer to the appropriate topic by screen, page or tab name for the corresponding field to locate the field definition table in that section.
