AGENCY_CODE
Indexed - yes
Format - char (4)
May be null? no |
The 4-character code that identifies an agency to which a proposal has
been sent, or from which an award has been received. Example: 1043 (Peace
Corps). Agency codes that are made up of numerals are BEN Financials fund
sponsor codes. Agency codes that begin with letters are translations of
the 5-character agency codes used before November 24, 1997 for Sponsored
Projects data in the Warehouse. Agency codes that begin with a letter
('X', 'Y', or 'Z') refer only to agencies that sponsored projects before
July 1, 1996 and that are not included in the BEN Financials Fund Sponsor
Codes table because the agencies no longer exist.
