*FY*: 2/1 - 1/31 fiscal years are entered in this format: \[YYYY\] (e.g. 2018), but this field should really be considered as a custom label for its related duration. For FYs that span periods other than 2/1 - 1/31, it's acceptable to use alternate naming methods (e.g. 2018 - Seed Proposals)

*Duration*: Enter fiscal year duration in this format: \[MM/DD/YYYY - MM/DD/YYYY\] (e.g. 02/01/18 - 01/31/19)
