  <p>Two ways to implement this come to mind. One (though very limited way) would be through custom fields, the other by creating a whole new entity tied to grants (which would require some coding).

Comments.Text: My question is about the grants the organization makes. The functionality will involve keeping records of grants in each fund and enabling users to browse previous grants by funds (displaying info made in the previous rounds of each fund etc.). I started working on small module that creates two new tables Fund and FundGrant. But I am not quite sure if that is the right path.
