automated email
It would be great to set up an automated email sequence for applicants that was timed around incomplete draft applications. For example, one week after an application is started, an automated template email is sent with a "thank you for starting an application, if you have questions or need help please reach out to....don't forget the application deadline is X"....and similar. I try and send reminders to our in-progress draft applicants regularly; having an automated sequence would be really great--similar to what you see in email marketing packages.

GLM : make the organization name visible throughout a form
It would be useful to see the name of the Organization at all time when working in a request. When we have long forms, the name is not visible as we go down the form.
When we go back and forth between other applications, it could be practical to be able to see the name without going up the page.

Popup or alert system
A popup or alert system to add notes on the request and organization side for evaluators would be helpful.

Show number of users assigned to process
Add an icon or label to or near the 'Assign Users' button (on the Update Process page) to indicate how many users are currently assigned to the process.

Email template logic
It would be so useful to be able to incorporate logic into email templates. If I could have one sentence if a certain condition is true, and another if it's not, would save me from having to create (and maintain!) a multitude of templates.

"Close Request" button
The "close request" button has caused confusion for our staff. It's being clicked accidentally. As you go through the scholarship workflow, you often click the buttons in the bottom right corner. The Close Request button is located in the bottom right, but is not a button we want clicked. I also think using the word Closed is not the right word to use. Could the button be moved and the name changed to indicate something more drastic? "Close" can sound like you are just finishing this particular step in the process. Thank you!

redirect to main page after password reset
Redirect to login page after password reset.
Can you please have the system automatically redirct to the main login page after a password reset has been completed? This seems like an easy fix and should be automatic but currently users have to then go back in and locate the login page after they just reset their password.
In a perfect world, we could also have the system automatically send folks a password reset when adding new users to an organization vs. having to tell them to go reset themselves or manually having to send them an email reset link.

Pull Opportunity Info or Flag Questions into Follow Up Forms
When creating Follow Up forms, it would be a real time-saver, and lessen the likelihood of error, to be able to pull information or fields from the Applicant Opportunities section of the Universe into the follow up form. (Or even from the connected CSuite Scholarship.)
Currently, each opportunity we have has its own initial acceptance follow up form where the student must certify they still meet that scholarship's criteria, and we have to manually copy/paste that criteria into the follow up form from the Applicant Description section of the Opportunities page, or the scholarship description in CSuite.
To take it…

Link Sharing Errors
When sharing a link to an LOI, Application, or Follow Up with someone on your team to easily access, the link often produces an error message, especially when the team member has another tab open to the Foundant login page. We would appreciate being able to share links to data within the platform without those links resulting in errors.

Allow evaluators to track the amount of money they have spent as they are going through applications
We have had several evaluators ask for there to be a way to see the amount of money they have recommended be allocated in total as they are going through all of the applications they have been assigned. As we give them a budget for each process, this would be helpful in seeing how close they are getting to that budget.

Shared Documents in GLM by Process
I'm reposting this since it was first submitted a few years ago and it is still an issue for us. It would be very beneficial to allow Shared Documents to be uploaded per Process. Currently if you upload shared documents, all board members in other processes can also see anything that is uploaded. We are unable to use this for our committees for this reason and I have to e-mail the documents versus the board members being able to review them in Foundant.

copy previous answers
We are currently use processes for each scholarship we hold at our Foundation. We have a scholarship advisory committee for each scholarship. We have some people who serve on multiple scholarship committees, so they do end up evaluating the same applicant for multiple scholarships. We are recommending that evaluators have the ability to copy previous scores/comments from one evaluation to another for the same applicant. For example, if they are evaluating on their GPA and academic performance, that won't change from application to application. They are requesting to copy the scores and comments as a previous answer to another evaluation…

revert status
I'd like to request more control over the "Revert Status" function in SLM. Batch revert capability would be wonderful, and also the ability to choose from any stage in the cycle to revert to rather than having to revert one step at a time (i.e. from denied to denial draft, then from denial draft to complete).

Evaluator view grid
I heard from an Evaluator who was frustrated with the view of a grid/table on his evaluator view. As he was working in the side-by-side (evaluator/application) view, he coudln't see any of the content of the (in this case) Student Activities grid. There was content in boxes that he wanted to see but the dropdown carrot took up most of the space and he couldn't read the student replies.
Getting rid of the carrots would probably help but just in general, some way to better view the contents of a grid format answer would be wonderful.

Improve navigation
Would love to see a shortcut for going between work pages. For example, if I'm on Follow Ups Draft, and I want to go to LOI drafts, or applications evaluation assigned, I have to click the home button to get back to my dashboard, then into the next work page. If there was a dropdown in the navigation bar (perhaps only for administrators?) "Go To...) then a list of pages, we could go directly without bouncing back and forth across the dashboard. Not critical, but (especially on days when the site is running slowly) that extra step really adds up…

QR Code to direct applicants to a specific grant/scholarship application
Would really like the system to produce QR codes that they could use to direct scholarship applicants and applicants applying for hardship grants to a specific application.

Include cc/bcc in template preview when configuring auto emails
When I'm configuring automatic emails for a form, I always click the eye icon to preview the template. For some reason, it includes all the information that's been set up in the template except for the cc/bcc fields. It would save some navigation if those were included along with all the other template information already displayed - I currently have to navigate to the actual email template to review which addresses have/have not been included in the cc/bcc fields in the template, which sort of negates the usefulness of the preview function within the configuration view.

SLM: customize Evaluator dashboard view by Process
We have a scholarship with a 2-step evaluation process. It would be great if we could customize the dashboard view of Evaluators to show not just the score, but Evaluator responses to one of the custom questions. Our committee is sophisticated enough that they are comfortable changing the sort order on the available columns, and adding an additional column to show an additional assessment question would provide them with more flexibility.

Simple LOI fix to reduce confusion for Applicants
There is a red circle with a backslash icon that appears when applicants try to copy and paste from their LOI to Proposal Application. This icon confuses Applicants because they are in fact able to copy and paste.
I am getting several emails from applicants who don't understand they can still copy and paste. Please delete the confusing red circle backslash icon.

Manually Add/Remove Email Address in Batch Email
It would be really helpful to be able to remove/add individual emails when using a batch email to applicants/evaluators. It is so tedious to manually type each email when you only need to exclude a handful.
