Join split projects? This prompt is available to allow users to determine whether grants/programs that were split into multiple projects (e.g., site-based and tenant-based, divided by CoC or region) should be grouped together within the report or reported as separate projects. In general, this should be left "no" unless generating the report for a purpose that requires a grant to be reported as a single set of numbers instead of multiple numbers, in which case the prompt should be changed to "yes."
