  1. My team uses custom fields on opportunities for unique tracking. The description of the custom field is where we have the instructions for how and when to use the field but is only seen if you go to the custom fields page.

    Can the description of a custom field appear when USING the custom field? For instance, when you click into the custom field to select from the dropdown menu, you would also see the description of the custom field which explains when you would need to use the custom field. That way my team does not have to reference…

  2. When in the Profile record, it would be helpful for the view in the Relationship tab of the Fund Profile to include the fund group. We need that information for the view to keep from having to open each fund if a fundholder asks about their "Donor Advised Funds", for instance.

  3. Not all, but some of our multi-year scholarships have GPA requirements that place students on probation for a semester. I would love for there to be a toggle or checkbox on the student's profile that would allow us to flag these students. Somewhat like an "alert" in Csuite. It would be helpful rather than keeping a separate list elsewhere.

  4. First of all, THANK YOU for creating the profile type directory! I was super excited to find out it existed while at Summit. I would love for you to expand the capacity of it and make it similar in function to the Nonprofit Directory with the ability to decide what information to share--even if it was in the setup and not particular to one person/organization. For example, I would love to be able to share a person's name, title, workplace and address in addition to the phone and email. I appreciate you Chris and team!!

  5. When running a custom report in CSuite, the default setting for Results per Page is 20 rows per page. For most use cases, this requires unnecessary pagination through what are often much larger data sets.

    Given the processing capabilities of modern devices, a higher default, such as 200 rows, would be easily manageable and would save staff significant time when reviewing or exporting report data.

  6. Currently, any staff member with access to view a profile can see all fields on that profile, including custom fields. This creates a challenge for foundations that want to store sensitive information, such as wealth screening data or estimated net worth in CSuite, but only want certain staff members to have visibility into those fields.

    We would like the ability to:

    1. Mark a custom field as restricted or private.
    2. Control which staff roles or individual users can view that field.
    3. Hide the field entirely from users who do not have the appropriate permission, rather than simply displaying a blank value.

  7. Currently, CSuite allows only one marketing campaign to be designated as a newsletter, resulting in a single opt-in checkbox on the Giving Hub checkout screen. Many foundations manage multiple newsletters targeting different audiences or interests and have no way to offer donors a choice at checkout.
    We would like the ability to:

    1. Designate multiple marketing campaigns as newsletter campaigns.
    2. Display a separate opt-in checkbox for each designated newsletter campaign at checkout.
    3. Add a description at the campaign level to communicate what each newsletter covers, helping donors make an informed choice.

    This would allow foundations to grow segmented subscriber lists organically…

  8. When a fund is marked as anonymous at the fund level, that setting applies to all grant requests by default. However, it's common for fund holders to occasionally want a specific grant to be non-anonymous. For example, when they want their information passed along to the receiving nonprofit.

    Currently, when a fund is not marked anonymous, the grant request form includes an "Anonymous" checkbox so the fund holder can make a specific grant anonymous. But the reverse does not exist: when a fund is marked anonymous, there is no "Not Anonymous" checkbox on the request form for the fund holder…

  9. When a prospective fund holder submits a Fund Request through the online form, that submission captures much of the information needed to begin drafting a fund agreement. Currently, there is no way to carry that information forward into a templated document without manual re-entry.
    We would like the ability to create a document template that pulls fields from a submitted Fund Request record and generates a first-draft fund agreement. This would:

    1. Reduce manual data re-entry for staff after a fund request is received.
    2. Standardize the initial fund agreement drafting process.
    3. Create a more seamless handoff from the intake stage to…

  11. Update the Cover the Credit Card Fee Option in the Giving Hub to be a setting on each fund rather than a universal Giving Hub setting.

    We turned this on for a corporate fund but not all fundholders want to offer this option.

  12. Share Do Not Mail/ Email/ Call/ Solicit between linked profiles.

    When you mark a profile as "Do Not Mail" or similar it would be great if there was the option to update linked profiles to the same status. Similar to how when an email address is updated, we're asked if we want to update all instances.

  13. It would be helpful to copy a donation that applies to one payment. For our giving event, donors send in one check that could be for multiple different non profits and it would save keystrokes if I could copy the initial donation that applies to the one payment.

  14. I am bringing back a couple of ideas you have previously archived. It is not clear whether the system architecture will not allow these changes to be made or if there is insufficient support for the idea. However, the way the system is behaving today is extremely misleading.

    Situation:
    When adjustments are made to a promise record, the system does not allow it to be deleted. The only option is to Cancel the promise record.

    Problem:
    In the promise details, you can see that the promise was cancelled and the amount was cancelled. HOWEVER, on the Engagement tab of the…

  15. Can we specify the column headers a little under cash management? I get confused and have to triple check myself which column is the actual invested dollars vs what our funds are saying they are invested. One of them as Investment Balance. The other can be Fund Balance or something? Thank you! :-)

  16. Currently audit only group access allows access to view logs, but not logs within a donation transaction for example. Open permissions so auditors can view the log from within the transaction.

  19. When a piece of contact information is marked inactive, it should either be moved to the bottom of the list or moved to a different tab. It also should not show up at the top of the profile screen.

    Examples attached:

    1. Screenshot showing inactive address at the top of the addresses list
    2. Screenshot showing an inactive address in the primary address section at the top of the screen when both addresses were marked as inactive

  20. It would be very helpful if Foundant allowed budgeted accounts to include multiple line items (subcategories) within a single GL account or subaccount, rather than restricting imports to one total amount per account.
    Currently, Foundant only allows one total per account (e.g., Account 4XXXX = $10,000). In practice, this total is often made up of multiple components (e.g., Consulting $5,000, Team Meetings $5,000). This limitation forces users to track supporting details outside the system, reducing visibility, increasing manual work, and creating a higher risk of error.

    I would like to see a budget function that supports multiple rows per GL…
