Chris,
We also have a need for a "Withdrawn" status after the evaluation stage. Sometimes circumstances change for a grantee or project after an application is submitted and under review (site visit). We don't want to use the abandon category because this application actually got reviewed. (We use the "abandon" category for applicants who do not finish or submit their applications. This category also requires us to revert the status of an application back to application complete. Again not capturing that it got reviewed.) Nor do we want to use "deny" because it doesn't capture the special circumstance of a withdraw and implies that our grants committee denied it rather than it being withdrawn. For us, "withdrawn" is its own category worth capturing.
