Affiliation Type

 

The Affiliation Type administration maintenance lookup screen  allows you to refine search criteria and search for affiliation type codes and names, which represent the different types of affiliations that can be associated with a Person record in KIM.  These codes may be used for data sorting or retrieval purposes.  Technical assistance is required to add new or edit existing affiliation types.
