  1. Allow other non-applicant roles (Evaluator, Program Officer) the ability to generate AI summaries with the site admin managing this access through permissions that can be set at both a user and role level.

  2. It would be extremely helpful to be able to run a report that gives the current visibility status for each individual question on a form. We change visibility on our LOI after our initial review is complete. In addition to needing to change the visibility setting on each question one by one, currently we can only validate that the setting have been correctly updated by manually reviewing each question again, one by one. Thank you for your consideration of this capability!

  3. With the New Applicant Dashboard feature, we would love to be able to manually change the status of a request on the Request Panel to Action Needed, even if there is no assigned follow-up form associated with the request. Sometimes, we have applicants that submit requests, and we do a first round due diligence check that requires follow-up on the back end via email with no official form, but action may still needed from the applicant. Under the New Applicant Dashboard feature, these requests would fall under the No Action column even though action is needed, there is just no…

  4. Is there a way to change the default for all new processes created to not have ANY users assigned to the process?

    Currently, the default is that ALL users are selected. It’s one of those things if we don’t catch when creating new processes, grant managers for other processes get confused as they see applications they should not.

    I did get a reply from Tessa Williamson at Foundant that stated:
    I do want to thank you for your previous IdeaLab post in 2021 to gain some traction on a functionality similar to this. Though the team has implemented when grant…

  5. It would be useful to have the inability to use custom merge fields in an email template.

    Some background on our proposed use this feature and the need it addresses:

    Our foundation was attempting to create an email template which can serve as a digital copy of the scholarship award letter we send to recipients. However, we are unable to create a "master" email template that would serve across all opportunities because there is no way to pull in a description of the scholarship each recipient has won.

    It would be nice to be able to utilize custom fields from…

  6. We are looking for a way to document in Foundant which organizations have been impacted by the uncertainty/withdrawal of federal funds and the extent to which they have indicated to us that they have been impacted.
    Organization comments on the "Organization Summary" page seem to be an appropriate place to document the information, but there doesn't seem to be a way to pull these comments into reports.
    Would it be possible to add this data field to the reporting dataset for the organization?

  7. 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.

  9. Suggestion: When working on updating email templates, it would be very helpful to have an arrow button for “Next” and “Back” to easily navigate the email templates.
    Current Process: Now, the process requires that you go back to the email template section, pick the next template from the list, wait for it to open, make changes, save, go back to the email template listings page and then repeat that for every template. I noticed that you already have an arrow that forwards you to the next form in other stages within the dashboard, but not in the email templates section.…

  10. It would be helpful when an applicant submits a follow-up form that the automatic email that is sent to the admins has the actual person who submitted the follow-up form. Instead of "A new (blank) has been submitted for (grantee phase)".

  11. The side-by-side view for evaluations does not properly show all of the text for 'text box' type questions. To see the rest of the text a user must manually select the text to make the box scroll - this is nonsensical or select the application button at the top creating a PDF popup.

    Please make all the text show so that the evaluators can just have a side by side comparison and not have to open up multiple documents.

  12. I would love an automated email to administrators for GLM/SLM for a conflict of interest question. That way we can see it and assign another evaluator. We shoot for a certain number of reviews of applications and if someone has a conflict of interest we would want to assign a different reviewer for that application.

  13. On the Dashboard there's the Amount Awarded graph that posts the last 10 years. Our organization would love the Payments graph to show the same (last 10 years vs. last 12 months). Or, we'd like the ability to change the Payments graph by year. Also, it would be so helpful if you could drill down on the graphs to see what grants make up those amounts/payments.

  14. Can custom columns be added to the "select user" popup box when assigning evaluators to a process? Helpful column options would be email address and organization name. Sometimes there are evaluators with the same name, or with duplicate accounts from changing organizations and making a new account at their new organization without informing me as the administrator, which makes it difficult to see if I'm assigning evaluations to the correct account.

  15. 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…

  16. I just voted on Evaluator batch print function that someone else posted and would also like to suggest a Batch print function for "Your Follow Ups". With a lot of our grants, staff leads assign internal follow ups to their selves to complete verbal reporting with our partners so being able to download/print those batch lists would be really useful vs. viewing/scrolling down a lengthy page.

  17. I'm aware we currently have the capability to branch questions off of aggregated table cells (thank you for implementing!). However, any plans in the near future to branch off of any individual cell responses? That would be so much more helpful for us.

    For example, we currently ask on an application for org. leaders' demographic percentages to be entered in a table and one of the categories is "Other historically disenfranchised groups". If they indicate a % in that cell other than 0, a branched text area question appears asking them to name the specific group(s). Since it's required to…

  18. I think users/members of an organization should be able to make other users in their organization inactive rather than admin having to do it on the backend.

    It appears that a lot of users were ported over from our last system which makes it so the user profiles for many organizations that we work with are outdated. We as admin don't know who's current in their organizations and who is inactive. They know. Additionally, board members and board presidents change roles frequently. It would be helpful if organizations could manage that themselves as opposed to admin having to do that.

  19. It would be helpful to have the option to move, make bold, or otherwise highlight the Evaluator Descriptions which appear under the scholarship name when an evaluator is reviewing an application in SLM. It is easy to miss the Evaluator Descriptions where they are now and it would help to have them stand out and be more visible/noticeable to evaluators during the review process.
