Customize file download name
When using a merge template to create word or PDF documents, it would be really helpful id the file name included the organization name or project name. For example, when having to download multiple PDF applications individually (from the Request & Decisions page), the file name used for all is the name of the merge template file. I then have to go back and rename each application form which is very cumbersome.
Hopefully, this is an easy fix:)

Application Packet: only print sections applicant filled out
Currently, the application packet is super long. It would be so much better if the packet only printed out the sections for which the applicant provided an answer.

Ability to view additional fields on the Request Summary
It would be great to be able to view some additional information on the Request Summary, specifically the project start and end date, and the total grant award. Ideally, it would be able to customize that form to our needs. Program staff don't want to have to open the application to find that information and would prefer to have it on the Request Summary.

Improve application with icon sections and progress toolbars
View for students needs updating. We previously used a different software. Each section (family, academics, essays, etc.) had it's own customizable icon with a picture and a progress bar to show what % of that section was completed. SLM UA looks so daunting for students.

Jump applicants to part(s) of application that are incomplete
When the universal application lists things that still need to be completed before an applicant can submit, is there a way they can be linked so an applicant can click and be taken to that incomplete section?

Ability to Copy Universe in SLM
We would like to have the feature of copying Universes so we don't have to go back to Sandbox, edit, and then port over to the main site. We made many changes in the live site hoping we could copy for next year, and realized that functionality doesn't exist.

Shared Documents - batch upload and download / batch checkmark
I'd like to be able to batch upload files into Shared Documents. Currently I need to sit there and upload each of my 50+ files individually one after another and it's very tedious, with lots of clicking.
Relatedly, I would also like to see a batch download function where I can download all documents in a Shared Documents folder, instead of clicking each one.
I would also like to reiterate an idea posted by my colleague Billie Pandy in a former post - it would also be very helpful if we had an option to check "all documents in this…

SLM - Listing of Evaluation Committees and Members.
In SLM it would be nice to pull a report or print from screen a list of all the evaluation committees and the members on each committee.

put a search box on the dashboard
A large percentage of the time, when I log in, I'm doing so because I want to check something about a particular organization. I wish that there were a search box on the dashboard - this seems like a standard thing for most websites. Right now, there's an extra step in that I have to go to the organization search page. I don't know if you can do this with the current software architecture, but it would be great to have just one box that would search all fields for both organizations and contacts - and then if I need…

Deleting an organization entirely
I'd like to request the ability to delete an organization entirely, even if the organization had an application previously. I am unable to permanently delete the organization, even though the request has been deleted because the system still thinks there is an application attached to that organization. We have several organizations that began requests but have either left them blank or partially filled in. I've deleted the requests but would like to delete the organizations altogether as they are not eligible for our grants and will not be able to apply.

table question
For table questions, it would be very helpful to have all text entered into a text field be visible in the field online. Currently, if the table has four columns, the field is quite short and text is not visible to administrators nor evaluators. Either having the text wrap in some fashion, or even having the ability to customize the column width so that text columns are wider than say an integer column.

Allow Adding Custom Columns to All Pages - Especially Organization Summary
The Organization Summary Page currently shows Status, Amount Grant, and Amount Paid. It does not allow us to readily see which of our Program Staff a grant is assigned to. As we award multiple grants to one specific organization and oftentimes, those grants are assigned to different Program Staff in our office, it would be wonderful to see at a glance, which PS person a grant is assigned to. Similar to the way we are able to add a few custom columns to the Follow Ups Submitted page, we should be able to do the same on ALL pages we…

Add titles to reports
It would be great if there was a way to give a report a title, so it is print-ready. Currently, I export it as a pdf and then add the title there. Without Adobe Acrobat Pro, I wouldn't be able to do that, so I would think this is a challenge for those who don't have it.

Application Evaluation Bucket on Dashboard
I would be helpful to see "Complete" Status on the Application Evaluation dashboard. How does an Administrator know that an evaluator has completed their review except to have to click in the Application Evaluation "Assigned" - which defeats the purpose of a dashboard? Thank you

Add sorting function to Merge Templates
Would it be possible to add a sorting feature to merge templates? We use 45-50 different merge templates, and to keep things organized, we group them by kind: Announcement Letters, Award Letters, Quarterly payment letters, etc. Currently, when we need to upload an additional template it is just added at the bottom of the list. A sorting feature would help us move that last added new template to others like it in the list. A sorting feature would expedite finding the right letter template rather than scrolling up and down until the correct template is located. For instance, in “Follow-Up…

Add additional "Document Types" under Request Documents
Currently, there is only an option to select site visit, board summary, correspondence, and other document types in the Request Documents section on the Request Summary. It would be great if we could either customize that list to meet our specific needs, or be able to add a couple more types. Common documents we would use are project modification, revised budget, returned grant funds. We currently use "Other", but I think adding a couple more options provides consistency in data entry.

foundation assigned grant numbers
We use a grant number that we assign after an application is submitted. The number reflects the year and order received within the year. We have historically used this number to a great extent and have created a field for it in GMS. The place we really miss it is on all of the Open Requests screens where the headings are proscribed and include Process, Organization, Applicant, Project. Does anyone else long for the opportunity to have Number reflected there? Has anyone found a good way to work around that? If we want to get the number to show up…

How many applications an evaluator has left to score
I've heard from several of our evaluators that they would like to be able to see the actual number of applications that they have left to score. For instance, under Pending it might say they have 50 left but if students qualify for multiple opportunities, they might only physically look at 15 (because the scores are automatically applied to the other opportunities of that student). They find it frustrating not knowing how much time they will need to carve out of their schedule for scoring.

Ability to track 'clicks' to know when/where an applicants abandons the application process
We would like to be able to track applicant clicks through the system so we can see if changes made impact user abandon rates in certain parts of their online journey with us. For example, when/where in the process do they give up? This would allow us to identify where we might need better instructions or a change in the questions or flow.
