  1. When adding a filter for profiles, the very long list is not alphabetical. Thus it is hard to search. It would be a lot easier if the list was alphabetical. It is below:

  2. Currently, it appears that we can only provide monthly tax receipts for recurring gifts. If the donor requests a yearly receipt for their recurring gifts there doesn't appear to be an easy "flag" letting us know who has indicated this preference. It would be nice if there was a mechanism within recurring gifts that tracks who wants a yearly receipt of their recurring gift rather than a new receipt every time a recurring gift is processed. The less we rely on an employee to remember to do tasks, the more efficient we can become.

  3. Would it be possible to be able to add as an option to include task type notes (the ones that you can fill in when completing a task) in the customized task reports? There is no other way to search/view them, so you wouldn't necessarily know there is a note attached.

  4. I like the idea that we can mark grants complete. It would be great if that screen was more user friendly and let you mark in bulk instead of one a time.

  5. Zapier lets you connect to 2,000+ other web services. Automated connections called Zaps, set up in minutes with no coding, can automate your day-to-day tasks and build workflows between apps that otherwise wouldn't be possible. In particular, we are looking for new ways to do online fundraising given COVID. We would like to work with GiveButter, a platform that will allow us to livestream an event and collect donations at the same time.

  7. We have just gone into our second year using CSuite and are ready to take a hard look at Permissions. We are finding we would rather have 'departmental' user groups than just the default distinction between Accounting and Staff that was set up at implementation. We have just been granting specific permissions on the fly, as staff run into tasks they are unable to complete, and would like to re-establish a controlled structure.

    We are running into a few hurdles as we try to approach this project, specifically:

    1: there aren't any good definitions on WHAT each permission actually does…

    Here is a link to a help article which lists the description of each permission:  

    https://support.foundant.com/hc/en-us/articles/4447782019351-Detailed-Permissions


    There are several custom reports that should help you review the permission settings in your site.  


    • Group - will give you a list of groups
    • Group Action - will give you a list groups along with the advanced action for each group.  The report can be grouped by the object, then sorted by the group name to review a site's permissions
    • User Action - will give you a list of Users and the permissions that they have access to.  The report can be grouped by employee then sorted by object.  
    • User Group - will give you a list of employees and the group they have been assigned to.  The report can be grouped by group name to easily review the users assigned to each group.
  8. We would like to be able to filter in a grant report by cumulative grants completed for a specific time frame or the lifetime of the fund. We would use this to send specific mailings of appreciation to donors who reach the milestone of donating $100K or $500K+ from their fund. Currently this isn't an option to filter by cumulative total for grants.

  9. If a grant has multiple payments coming from it, I would like to be able to "complete" the portion of the grant that has been paid and the check has cleared the bank.
    Similarly, in SLM, if a student has a multi-year grant, I would like to complete (for the current year) any follow-ups rather than leaving them open and continually have to remind myself that I can't set certain items as complete. Once we have been on SLM for several years, I imagine the follow-up Submitted list is going is going to be very long.

  10. I want to link a volunteer board member as the solicitor of an opportunity. It would be ideal to add a "Solicitor" field, which can link to profile ID's in CSuite.

    Only field available to link an individual to an opportunity is Assigned field, which only links Users/Employee records to Opportunities & Tasks within.

  13. Recurring grants, vouchers & donations all have a way of reminding you that it's time to post/initiate. Wish pledge reminder letters had a similar prompt. Yes, can use Tasks or Outlook but a CSuite reminder to send letters would be great. With the ability to set how long (week/month etc) prior to next pledge date to get the reminder prompt.

  15. When you create a Task and click the check box to "Send Calendar Invite", the person assigned to the tax receives an invite to add to their calendar but it does not have a way to easily choose the time of day for the appointment/task. It would be great if you are scheduling a task to meet with someone you could set the time of the calendar invite. Right now they show up as an entire day entry on the calendar. It's not helpful when scheduling.

    You also don't have an option to accept your own calendar invite. So if…

  16. The copy buttons don't require any confirmation that you actually want to copy prior to the copy being completed currently. This is an issue because it is often next to "edit" or "merge" buttons, so it is fairly easy to mistakenly click from time to time. Additionally, it can be fairly easy to miss that you did copy the record since the only indication is a refresh of your screen in most cases, so this can result in duplicate records and confusion. A simple screen asking if you want to copy this record would avoid this without causing too much…

  18. 1- Ability to import securities - helpful as some donors contribute 20+ stocks at a time

    2 -Auto complete the description of the security (but field should be able to be edited if needed). The database pulls the high / low information so it should also be able to pull the name of the security

    3 - Keep the securities listed in the order they are entered. For some reason csuite re-orders (in no particular order) the securities after saving the entry making it difficult to review the stock gift entry

  19. It would be very helpful to have a detailed general ledger report of all the transactions for a particular fund or set of funds to review data. Most systems have a report that is often requested by auditors and fundholders to get a complete picture of all the detailed line items that have gone into their fund.

    This report would make it easier to review data.

  20. 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.
