Denial Date
Hello! We recently moved a number of applications into "Denial Draft" and then, a few weeks later, into "Deny." It appears Foundant records their denial dates as the dates they were moved into "Denial Draft." Would it be possible to change that so that denial dates are the dates they are formally and finally denied? It would more accurately reflect our decision-making process.Thanks!Bob Hybben

Doing Business As or AKA searches
Many times a non-profit changes its organization's name or does business under another name other than their legal name. It would be very helpful if the GLM system had a field called "DBA or AKA" in which you could enter other names by which the organization is known. In GLM, our foundation lists an organization according to their legal name and we try to stick to that for consistency for entering organizations names in their GLM record. The legal name may be longer or cumbersome and the organization ends up going by a shorter name or acronym which people know…

You should be able to close requests even if follow ups are still outstanding
We have a process where we give grants out - the applicant has to complete the grant contract and then submit a grant evaluation at school year end. However, some never submit their evaluations. We do not let them be eligible to apply for another grant unless all their evaluations have been submitted, so we do not want to close or abandon any of the outstanding follow up forms that say "MSHE Grant evaluation". However, at the end of the cycle, I want to be able to close out all my grant contracts that have been completed, however, since a…

Manager Evaluations
Currently, once a manager evaluation has been assigned, if the manager reviews it and then realizes it should be reassigned to another manager, if he saves it (even without answering any questions), it locks the evaluation and it cannot be reassigned. This is an issue and has not always been this way. I would like to recommend this be changed so if needing to reassign an evaluation, it can be done without issue by the administrator, even if it has been saved. This has been a very big issue for us during our current grant process and I'd like to…

Request History as an Internal Form Field
The request history table in the print packet is so helpful. Board members and evaluators really like to have a quick snapshot of this information.
It would be great if we could
1) pull this table into application or evaluation form as an internal field or
2) create a field with the option to make request history pop out as an external window
or any solution that offers a simple way to have eyes on request history to those folks who spend little time in the database and don't feel comfortable with extra clicksThank you!

Sync grantees change of address in GLM to CSuite as primary/pay/mailing
Either sync grantees change of address in GLM to CSuite as primary/pay/mailing so we are not mailing grant checks to old addresses, OR, have an alert for when grantees change their addresses in GLM.

preferred gender pronouns
It would be really helpful to ask all system users/contacts for their preferred gender pronouns (e.g. she/her/hers, he/him/his, they/them/their, and so on). In this day and age, it's important to people to be correctly addressed.
10 votesHello,
This can be added to the user form today. One piece we have heard is that this should be more visible in other areas of the software, if you could please call out where you would expect to see this information

Batch Create Merge letters from Approval Buckets
For our GLM Processes, we typically create all of our Merge Grant Letters once the applications are moved into the Approval Buckets. Once these are in the approval buckets and we go to create the letters we have to go into each application one by one > create word docs > export > update > save etc... It would be awesome if we could batch create our letters by selecting the checkboxes on the approval bucket page and export 1 word doc with each letter having it's own page on that doc. This would allow us to create, export and…

Merge Templates and Print Packets
Right now, Foundant does not allow you to create and format a Merge Template that you can then use as the Print Packet associated with each form. The editing capabilities for the Print Packets are extremely limited and there is certainly room for formatting and content improvements. It would be very helpful if admins were able to create and format a Merge Template in a way that is most supportive for their team and evaluators and use that as the Print Packet.

eligibility quiz
In the eligibility quiz in GLM, the ability to customize a "passing" message like you can customize a "failure" message would be beneficial to make things very clear to applicants that they can move on to the application stage. We had a few organizations last cycle that passed the eligibility quiz but it wasn't entirely clear to them that they were allowed to move onto the next step in the application process.

Allow sharing of question group to a form
In addition to being able to share a question to one form from another, it would be great if I could share a whole question group from one form to another. It would be a great time-saver.

Option to hide questions on forms that are no longer relevant
While I understand why you cannot delete question fields once an applicant or staff member has submitted a response on it, sometimes that question needs to be deleted moving forward and based on how we have set things up it is preferred to not create/copy a new process when we want to make deletions. It would be nice to be able to "toggle"/hide a question from the applicant/grant manager on forms when we no longer want them to be answered/used.

Show Password to user logging in
It would be helpful to have the ability for the user to click "Show Password" when they are logging in. I've spent a lot of time this year with users (evaluators) struggling with sign in and it's always user error. "Show Password" could help.

Additional Process Visibility Option
Currently, for active processes, there are three visibility options: Public, Restricted, and Internal.
Public: Visible to applicants; applicants able to apply when open
Internal: Not visible to applicants
Restricted: Only visible to applicants with the corresponding access codeBased on the use of our applicants & grantees, I would love to see a fourth option added that would allow a process to be visible to applicants, but locked, so that applicants would need an access code to apply. Essentially a restricted visibility where the applicants could still view the process as if it were public, but still requiring a code.

Third-Party batch email options
We frequently follow-up with third-party respondents in applications. It's time-consuming to click into each application, process, email history to make those connections. We'd like "email third-party respondents" as one of the bulk option for selected applications.

Unnecessary Spacing On Forms
There appears to be unnecessary spacing added below the instruction field when building an application or other form. I suggest removing this formatting so instructions appear more naturally grouped with the relevant questions. If the additional spacing is necessary, I suppose we could add that in by adding a blank question field.

Universal app confirmation page
I find the language on the Universe confirmation page confusing. It says the applicant is eligible for the following opportunities, it's not 100% clear that the applicant must continue to apply. I'd suggest moving the blue "Continue" button to the top, or changing the message to read: "Based on your answers, you may apply for the scholarships listed below. Click the blue Continue button at the bottom of the page to complete the applications."

Budget tables
For dollar amounts, commas and decimals to automatically appear when entering amounts.
Allow summing across columns.
Sums should take the same format as what is entered in the fields. Currently, when summed, the dollar amounts appear as just a number with no dollar sign, commas, or decimals.Allow for selecting of the specific fields to sum rather than all fields with the column.
