  1. Create custom fields that include date and comment fields. The date so we can see when it was last updated, and comments so we can add more detail. This would be a huge enhancement, making custom fields much more intelligent and informative!

  2. It may be helpful to have an option in GLM to require organizations to pass a charity check before they can submit an application. This would save some manual steps a little later on in our process.

  3. If a grantee uploads a file when submitting a follow-up, it would be helpful if that file could be attached to the notification email sent to admins and others so they don't have to log into GLM to download it.

    This would also be useful for applications, especially when working with colleagues who don't have easy access to the system (or want to).

  4. It is possible to add a chart to your data set in "run report", however, this is not the most useful because you cannot export these charts in any way. The only way to use this data visualization would be to screenshot the chart and paste it elsewhere.

    I suggest it be possible to download the chart the same way you can download a chart from the metrics dashboard in the run report function.

  5. We need a way to export the images in a report/as a batch for our annual reports. These images are uploaded in our final report form.

  6. On the Applicant Opportunities tab on the UA - could we edit the order that the opportunities are listed? I know we can alphabetize the entire list, but I have two separate groupings of opportunities. I just added two new opportunities for 2025 and I want to put them each in a specific location on the list. Thank you.

  7. When evaluators are assigned to grant applications making sure the mandatory fields are completed, if not, giving them an alert before they can submit/finish.

  8. A site (or process) wide setting that allows us to hide abandoned applications would be helpful. Our board/evaluators are confused if they see this information in the request history tab or in print packets. We delete it but would prefer for it to show on the applicants' side and remain as a historical record.

  9. The new Investment Reports available to Fund Advisors through the Portal are great. But it is weird that they can only pull investment data through the end of our last fiscal year. Please allow investment data to be pulled from our last closed month.

  10. t would be great if you could see the request history tab when evaluating an LOI, instead of having to navigate to the organization.

  11. Applicants love the collaborator feature, but they are confused with "Can view, Can edit or Can submit" because they do not understand the permissions are additive. Would it be possible to change these to "Can view", "Can edit" and "Can edit and submit"? Even an explanatory pop-up would be helpful.

    Would also like an additional checkbox "Allow to invite other collaborators" or such. My applicants are asking for this. Either that or include it as part of the Submit permission.

    I know that this was submitted in the past, I am suggesting it again.

  12. Add functionality to chose who the follow up is assigned to when batching them. Currently, it goes to the applicant account. I’d like it to go to the organization’s primary contact, then they can add contributors. Applicants are often grant writers or development directors with higher rates of turnover than Executive Directors. Some orgs have overdue follow ups simply due to staff turnover.

  13. It would be great if attachments in the "Documents" tab could be previewed (much like how documents can be previewed within an application by clicking the eye icon).

    Currently, a user has to download a file from the Documents tab in order to view it. It would be amazing to keep the preview experience within the browser. As an added bonus, my downloads folder wouldn't get clogged up!

    Thanks!

  14. The addition of a feature or setting that allows us to set and save our foundation's fiscal year within the company information settings. Specifically, the ability to define our fiscal year as starting on December 1 and ending on November 30. This adjustment would ensure that all reporting tools and templates automatically align with our fiscal year, streamlining our workflow and improving the accuracy of our reports.

  15. Why does the system 'Login Instructions" auto-email go to an Administrator? It really needs to go to the user that just created their account! I've just been on with chat and apparently there's no way to edit this, no event type to send directly to the user, and orgs are working around it by having to post all the login instructions on the Login page itself? This makes no sense. It really would be so much more useful if it went straight to the user who just created their org in the system. Thank you!

  16. If custom fields are created on the registration form for organizations OR applicants, currently those fields are not available to be added in Custom Columns. It would be really helpful to have this functionality for visibility when coding payments, classifying applicants, and for eligibility.

  17. We often have dozens — if not hundreds — of LOIs, approvals, applications, and follow-ups on our dashboard at once. It would be wonderful to have a visual indicator any time a new LOI, application, or follow-up is submitted. For example, let's say I log in at 9am and my dashboard indicates 133 follow-ups in the "Submitted" bucket. I come back to my desk at 10am, refresh the dashboard, and there are now 135 follows-ups in the submitted bucket. "135" now glows with a different color and a "+2" alert. Once I click into my Submitted follow-ups, that alert resets…

  18. The Advised/Household roll up is a powerful tool that I have often used in my donor reports. Many of our donors give via a Donor Advised Fund.

    However when you use that tool it also "Rolls Up" individual giving records to household giving records. This unfortunately results in inaccurate Donor reporting, including households that are inactive or deceased. I'm wondering what is stopping Foundant from giving users the ability to either "Roll Up" just Household or just Advised donations.

    Because of this problem I have stopped using the "Roll Up" feature and instead create 2 separate reports one with all…

  19. I'd like to suggest there be an option to remove the "Preview" button for an upcoming process that isn't open to apply to yet.

    We have a few applications coming up that I have turned the availability on for so that they show up in the applicant portal and applicants are able to see when they open, but we are still finalizing some of the formatting and questions/prompts that we don't necessarily want the applicant to be able to see quite yet.

    Having the ability to hide or remove the "Preview" option while still having the process/application show on the…

  20. Email templates now offer the "Sender" merge field, it would be great if we could have the "Business Tittle" field in the users settings (optional) and maybe only internal so students to have access to it, but this would allow us to easily communicate foundation staff information without having to manually input. This would also allow us to track the evaluator's tittle at the schools involved in our nominating committees. Bonus if we can sync it with C-suite!
