Custom URL capability for SLM and GLM grant processes
It would be nice to be able to create a custom URL for grant and scholarship programs instead of the grantinterface.com address.

Suggestions for Custom Columns
It would be helpful to see the amount awarded from the All Open Approvals screen.
From the Organization Summary page on the Request History tab, is there a way to change the column header "Date" to say "Decision Date", since that is what that column is showing us?
Finally, it would be helpful if the primary user column were visible on the Organizations page.

list the actual payment date rather than the award due date in the award details of the request summary.
Seeing the due date instead of the actual payment date leads everyone to believe that was when the payment was made, especially since there is nothing that explains that date. In most cases, it is not and, unless they drill down to find the actual payment date, they assume that it is.

Shared Documents
In shared documents. I'd like there to be an option to choose all boxes to be check marked instead of doing them individually. Thank you

Automatic emails at Approval and Denial stage
We had a thought that the system should be able to automatically send emails at the approval and denial stages in granting. My thoughts are that we could setup a template that uses merged fields to email applicants whether they are approved or denied. Thoughts?

multiple automated emails
The option to add multiple automated emails would significantly improve efficiency. For example, a "report due" automated email is sent to grant recipients 30 days and 7 days before the report is due.

Follow Up Reports available with past applications under Organization History tab
It would be great if follow up reports showed up along with the past applications under the Organization History tab so all the members of an organization could see this important part of an application. With the high rates of turn over at a lot of these organizations having the follow report tied to the person who submitted the report is very limiting.

search special characters
searching for an organization named St. Vincent only returns results if the punctuation/special character is included. searching St Vincent should also return the results.

Ability to add attachments
Currently, the only way to provide a form to be completed is through links. I'd like to attach an excel spreadsheet that needs to be completed and uploaded by applicants. We have run into issues where links to forms break and it would be much simpler to provide the attachment within the application question.

Blind Review
In SLM evaluations, you are only able to add two custom columns to the user dashboard and are required to keep applicant first and last name.
Our foundation uses blind review to align with our DEI initiative. When following blind review, the applicant first and last name appear as [HIDDEN] (see screenshot) and are unable to be removed. Our reviewers have given feedback that they would like the opportunity to have those be optional columns so that they are able to pull in more relevant information like high school attended, major, GPA, etc.
Removing the requirement to keep first and…

Parent-subsidiary relationships
We repeatedly run into an issue with organization records in which one org (such as a university or community foundation) is the "parent" organization, and a department or sponsored program is a subsidiary or component fund. It would be helpful if GLM had the ability to show those relationships, have different addresses where needed for the subsidiary, and to segregate the subsidiary's contacts and grant history. For example, I am far more likely to need information about the McDonald Observatory (part of UT Austin) than the university overall.

college addresses available to merge
Two ideas for this... 1 is just making college addresses that are added in follow up forms to be available for merge templates. 2 is to establish a way that all foundant customers can submit confirmed correct college addresses - share the knowledge!

Batch assignment of requests to someone with the "Grant Manager" role
Currently, anyone with the "Grant Manager" role needs to have requests assigned to them by an admin. Admins do this by going to a request's summary page and linking the Grant Manager there. However, you need to do this ONE REQUEST AT A TIME. We have over 350 requests that we need to assign to a grant manager (we need flexibility in deactivating privileges, so we cannot make them an admin). That means an admin will need to go to 350+ request summaries and repetitively assign the request to this user.
Please make batch options for that available. Ideally, the…

Email to Grants Manager when follow-up is complete
We have matching grants as part of a Foundant process, and we send the match payment after we receive the final report Follow-up. It would be nice to have the system automatically generate a notification to our grants manager when the Program Officers have marked the follow-up as complete.

Tracking Touchpoints
There is no way to get one clear shot of engagement/touchpoints with organizations. Should there be unexpected turnover within an organization, their Foundant profile should have a feature to track the following:
1) Site Visits (with notes and person in attendance)
2) Phone Calls (with notes and person in attendance)
3) Events (with notes and person in attendance)
4) E-mails (with notes)Right now, we have to track this information on spreadsheets, which leaves a lot a room for human error. Without a feature like this, Foundant is very limited in its ability to manage the Grant Cycle process!

add active grant start and end dates, and grant amount to org history & request summary
It would be very helpful to be able to see the grant amount and grant start & end dates, preferable in both the organization Application and Grant History line, and (at a minimum) in the top box of the Request Summary. Too many clicks & scrolls to get that basic info. Thanks!

Sequential & Open Submission Logic
Follow Up Submission Logic setting:
Instead of the sitewide setting of every Process being set for Follow Ups to either be submitted in Open or Sequential order, can this setting be available on the Process level? This would allow us to have some processes that allow open submission and other processes to require sequential submission.

Date auto format
Please allow a date to auto format when entering without dashes. For example, entering 080225 will automatically change to 08/02/2025. This happens in CSuite but not in GLM.
Thank you. TCF
