  1. There needs to be a report that calculates each Donor Advised Fund's percent payout year over year. With the proposed legislation, it is important for community foundations to be able to show the active philanthropy of their DAFs as well as to encourage more active grantmaking in DAFs that are below a certain threshold.

  2. For audit purposes, it would be helpful to be able to change a fund group type at a point in time instead of changing all of history. We have memorial funds that come in as "Unrestricted" but turn into restricted scholarship funds (or others). When we change the fund group it changes the data for all of time which makes our ending balances for PY not match beginning balances in terms of audit categories.

    Right now we are closing the memorial funds completely and opening a new scholarship fund but this has us lose the donor/donation history for the fund.

  3. It would be ideal to be able to bulk update grant approvers, such as in the case where all of one user's funds are moved to another user for approval.

  4. On the Income Statement budget format, the variance amount and percentage only shows the variance stated in proportion to the current month. My board and I would prefer to see this amount as a percentage of the annualized rather than month to month budget. Can you please add an option for this such as a "budget ann" or "budget ytd"? Selecting the option "this year" will give me the annualized amounts, but there is no way to change the effective date and retain that format as it reverts back to the month over month.

  5. Allow for making a distribution to a Beneficiary on a fund "on hold" so that it will not be created when spendable grants are done. we have many funds that have beneficiaries as part of their fund agreement but the distribution is on hold for various reasons (the fundholders desire the fund to get to a certain level before making distributions, the fund is waiting for proceeds from life insurance, etc.). But we would like to have the beneficiary information created on the fund so it can easily be "activated" when the hold is removed.

  6. It would be incredibly helpful if there was a sort feature in the till. I would love a sort feature to organize gift id numbers in order. During my busy season, this was a huge, time-consuming headache. I resorted to using Ctrl + F to locate all the gift numbers that I needed in my deposit.

  7. Currently there is no automatic notification to notify the user that their request for approval is approved. Normally the personal with approval authority is very busy. The extra time spent to send an email confirming the request has been approved is very inefficient. Please add automated approval notifications so the staff requesting approval can be ready for the next step in their process.

  8. The Fund Advisor Portal has a donate tab so advisors can donate or set up donations to their fund even it it isn't public - GREAT! HOWEVER, if they set up a recurring donation, this is in no way marked in the contribution tab. Advisors should be able see, just like the recurring grants, that they have a recurring donation set up.

    There should also be editing capabilities for both recurring grants and donations for fund advisors in their portal. They shouldn't have to contact us if credit card information changes or if they want to increase the size of…

  9. Several of our Fund advisors have logged in to the Fund Portal to obtain a tax receipt, but are unable to access it because the gift was attributed to the household. Please update to allow a fund advisor who is part of a household to see the household tax receipts, in addition to their individual tax receipts.

  10. I would love to see a donor history view that looks similar to fund history. Now when you click into a fund's history, you see top donors, a graph of giving over time, and a pie chart. It would be wonderful to see this on a donor's profile as well that easily displays funds they have given to, years they have given the most etc. etc.

  12. Recurring Donations Communication to Fund Advisors -- It would be helpful to Fund Advisors if they could see which donations the see on the fund holder portal were recurring and at frequency they occur.

  14. I understand that there is an advised donation report, but would love to be able to pull the field "donation advisor" into my custom donation reports rather than run two reports and cobble them together.

  15. When marking an opportunity related task "done" and subsequently adding a note, the note shows up on the profile of the household and/or individual, but not on the fund profile DESPITE the fund field being specified. In normal notes, if you make a note in a profile and add the fund, the note will show up under the fund, too. This does not happen with the opportunity task notes, which is not efficient or streamlined. It would greatly enhance opportunities if the task notes show up under the fund designated in the notes, just like normal notes.

  17. Recommendation: Use profile mailing label name, rather than household name for fund advisors

    Issue: our household records appear as 'last name, first name' so that we can easily alpha-sort mailing lists, etc. However, ,because the portal is pulling the household name to populate the Fund Advisors name(s) on the primary screen for each fund, those names also appear as 'last name, first name'. ..Several of our donors are complaining about the 'last name, first name' appearance. If we could populate that field of the portal with mailing label format, or specify how we'd like the names to appear on the…

  18. When generating the admin fees, I would like to see the total calculation that the fee is being processed on. It shows in a description box but not in a column on it's own (nor does it show the total). Would be very helpful to make sure fees are calculating on portfolio balances accurately. This was something that FIMS included on their admin fee report, it showed both the full portfolio balance along with the fee column.

  19. We are getting an increasing amount of fund advisors wanting the flexibility to run fund statements on demand on the donor portal. It would be great if this could be introduced and if management are able to set date restrictions in system data

  20. Please include template fields for recurring grants: start date, interval, number of occurrences, next occurrence date so that we can send accurate grant letters with the checks. Currently we have to manually edit each grant letter for a recurring grant to add language that tells the recipient about the recurring details.
