Grants Management and Outbound Funds Module provide the Salesforce-native funding architecture represented by this scenario. Salesforce states that Grants Management uses the Outbound Funds Module data model , which includes Funding Programs, Funding Requests, Reviews, Requirements, Disbursements, and related financial-tracking entities.

The grantseeker's submitted application is represented by a Funding Request . Review records capture the reviewers' status and feedback, while Disbursement records represent funds that have been made or are scheduled to be made to the recipient. Salesforce's Outbound Funds documentation specifically states that the module manages Funding Requests and outgoing funds and can create disbursements for expenditures.

For more detailed expenditure accounting, the Outbound Funds data model includes GAU Expenditure , which connects a Disbursement to a General Accounting Unit and identifies which allocation or accounting category funded the disbursement. This supports audit scenarios in which expenditures need to be distinguished among categories such as mortgage arrearage and utility assistance.

FinancialForce Accounting is an external accounting solution and is not required by this Public Sector design. Nonprofit Success Pack can extend certain GAU functionality, but selecting NPSP alone would not replace the Grants Management/Outbound Funds framework specified by the scenario.
