  1. Once we create a report in Reporting Data Sets, we should be able to set it to run automatically at designated intervals (every week, every other week, once per month, etc.), and then have the system email it to administrators when it runs. We relied on this feature in our previous software and our work is impacted by this missing feature in Foundant GLM.

  2. We'd find the capability to have a particular report auto created on a specific schedule and then have that report available to be emailed (or otherwise served) to a group of users very useful in our grant review process.

    Our use case is in the final days of our application review period, needing to send a report of all incomplete evaluations to grant review team leads so that they can reach out to their team members with a reminder to complete their assigned evaluations.

  3. Would be awesome if we could have nonprofit comments in GLM synced to the nonprofit profiles in C-Suite so my team and I are always on the same page. Thanks!

  4. Please add a toggle that admin can switch to Stop applicants from applying for the same process twice. This feels like it should be the default anyway. We had over 400 hundred applications this last round. Duplicates cause huge issues with some getting approved and awarded $ twice. A Warning Message isn't enough; if they can still click that Apply button, they will...

  5. Hi,

    Our team would like to see the character count increase for the admin comment boxes (#4 in the article linked below).

  6. One of our evaluators brought to my attention that when she is completing evaluations – that the response to questions set up as text boxes are being cut off and it does not give her the ability to scroll. This seems to create a less than optimal experience for her and others. I realize to avoid this – I could create all questions as Text Area questions, but would prefer not to have to do this.

  7. When can see when a user last logged in but it would be great to be able see their entire log in history. We often get applicants that say “I started the application a month ago”, but we can’t actually see if they logged in a month ago, we can only see they last logged in today!

  8. Applicant Contact Information

    I am aware that applicants can update or edit their profiles. It would be wonderful if there were a mechanism that would prompt the applicant to review it for any necessary updates and to also review all contacts listed in the organization summary.

  9. Currently we request financial audits at the application and report stage in a grant cycle. This often means the same audit lives in two places.

    I would be great if users could upload files (audits, in this case) to the Organization Documents tab to keep everything in one place.

  10. It would be helpful if on approvals, we could predetermine a future date and not have to enter it every time. For example, we issue ALL scholarship payment on 07/02/2025. However, this field auto-populates to the current date. If we could have a date set, but able to change it if the payment needs extended, that would be quite the time saver -- especially when processing 450+ scholarships!

  11. It would be very helpful if collaborators or others in an organization could see any administrator comments made within an LOI or application. Currently, only the applicant can see the comments. If the applicant is asking for help from a collaborator, it is necessary that the collaborator see our comments.

  12. Batch Print blank forms from Process Manager

    We have 57 separate application Processes that we manage each year. Univeral application is not an option as each application has specific and varying criteria. Although we work hard to normalize wording of questions while inserting specific and simply things like word counts.

    Each year we open each process application and try to analyze anomalies. One way is to print each application, each evaluation, each follow-up form to PDF using "Question List". Once in PDF they may be analyzed as a group with different tools.

    The ability to Batch Print the Process Manager…

  13. 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…

  14. May I suggest a document viewer for those under the documents tab? A colleague states it would be nice to be able to preview a document without downloading it.

  15. When creating a merge document, it would be nice to be able to choose at the top of the screen, whether or not it is a .pdf or .doc. Scrolling to the bottom of the list of merge templates takes extra time, especially when creating many merge docs. It would also be very nice to be able to choose one type of document and all of your merge docs would be that type of document until you toggle it off.

    Thank you.

  18. 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…

  20. We pay grantees on a reimbursement basis. With some programs, this is a quarterly request, with others it is a single installment at completion of project.
    In either case, their budget will be collected in excel as part of the application. I would like that file to live with the specific project and be used to request reimbursements. Since file uploads are not shared questions, I don't have an easy way to help applicants do this.
    I saw that others had requested this functionality previously and the request hasn't been implemented due to lack of support. I'm hoping that by…
