  1. I have struggled sometimes to find an org or project because I do not type it in exactly as it was done at the outset. Is it possible to have more of a search function that operates like Google to find ones that are closely related?

  2. Bulk Edit Admin Fee Types by SubGroup - It would be nice to be able to do this, as the functionality already exists for other types of groups, etc. But it is not possible to do this by subgroup (i.e. all nonendowed funds at the same time).

  3. Since the DocuSign pdf is attached to each record is there a report that has which grantees has submitted their DocuSign doc and which ones are still missing would be great. I currently do this manually and it take a lot of time.

  4. I am training a colleague on entering grants into Foundant. Unfortunately, we're unable to remove a follow up form from a process once it has been used. And we're unable to remove the popup message for the follow up. So, while training I have to say "Oh just ignore that, we don't use it", which makes training clunky. Please give us the option to remove a follow up form (or at least the popup) we don't use.

  5. Bring back the option to learn in the SLM Sandbox in a systematic way that builds skills from zero to full knowledge of the Foundant SLM.

    The new system - while beautiful - is just random by topic, and unable to walk a person with no experience through the process of learning how to use SLM efficiently.

  6. My Problem: What about a student who doesn't complete two follow-ups but is still active, then graduates? Where do I put them now if I don't want to delete any follow-ups?

    Foundant: Then you'll have to mark the follow ups as complete. Or you can download the follow ups and attach on their request record under document tab, and then delete their follow ups.

    Wishing there was a button for something like this, since the student technically shouldn't be closed or abandoned.

  8. Implementing an automated email or system notification to the primary user in CSuite when grants are synced or approved from GLM would greatly reduce the risk of grants being overlooked and significantly improve workflow efficiency.

    As the Grants Manager, I work primarily in GLM, while our CFO manages CSuite. We often rely on lengthy email threads to track grant requests and approvals, which makes it easy for information to get lost. There have been several instances where approved grants were missed and not paid out on time simply because the approval was buried in email communications.

    After searching the Foundant…

  10. IT would be nice to have the option to select the comparative date in the balance sheet comparative presentation instead of only having the listed options (year over year, month over month). For instance, I would like to compare my current balance sheet to the prior year end, and then be able to prepare a cash flow that ties into it for the YTD. In that way, I can have a complete set of financial statements (balance sheet, income statement and cash flow) that all relate to each other for the same time period.

  11. Copy Third Party Letter of Recommendation Form:

    We use the Third Party Form capability with a list of questions for Counselors, Teachers, Coaches, etc. with a long list of questions but have to create from scratch for each new audience

  12. Add more characters to CC within email templates- Currently only 200 characters is about 5 addresses. We need to email at least 12 addresses in the CC field and be able to add more addresses to the to field.

  13. In Canada when we issue year end receipts, we need to have one receipt number for the total amount donated during that calendar year in order to create a receipt that CRA will accept. Sending out a summary with multiple receipt numbers is not an option and many donors do not want to receive 12 separate receipts during the year.
    Can there not be an option in the system to generate one receipt with one serial number at year end? I see this idea was archived a couple years ago but I feel like there are more Canadian charities joining…

  15. Please could we add an 'archive' button or feature to the reporting section so reports or data sets can be hidden from the main page but not deleted? Right now the options are to have a cluttered reports page, or delete entirely.

  16. Currently in single/multiple file upload fields: it is only possible to dowload the files that have been uploaded. The idea would be to have the possibility to only view/preview the file without downloading it.

  17. This one has been previously archived, but when we get the summary of an organization, we really really would like to see the amount they requested, even if their grant was denied. This is one area where Blackbaud allowed us more functionality than Foundant.

    Along the same lines, when you look at org request history, it would be nice if it showed amount requested in the summary at a glance.

  19. It would be helpful to add the option to put an application and/or an organization on hold. We often run into a problem where the applicant has submitted documents without signatures, or they did not submit follow-up forms from a previous grant. If this information isn't shared with managers payments can accidentally be processed or applications can be pushed through by the manager because they were unaware of the process hold done by the finance team. To add a feature that locks everything and shows a red alert of why the process can't proceed would be great.

  20. The vast majority of the Metrics Dashboard data is related to decisions and payments/disbursements. Our organization does not facilitate payment through SLM/CSuite, so these charts/datasets are blank/not useful to us at all.

    Given the mission of our organization, it would be great to be able to customize this dashboard to reflect the data in real-time that is most important to our organization (largely applicant data, so for example, race/ethnicity data, geographic location, number of applicants per program, etc).
