  1. Hi! In working through our grant process, we have had evaluators complain about the length of print packets for applications. We have our applicants attach letters of support and their budget, but we (the staff) also need their financial audits, some of which can be 60-100+ pages. It would be helpful if we could keep the application clean just to what we need for evaluators to review applications and keep the staff documents separate. It would be great if we could allow applicants to upload their own request documents, where we could instruct them to upload anything needed for vetting…

  2. It would be more obvious that a grant is actually open if the listing on the Apply page simply said "Now accepting applications" rather than the current "Accepting Submissions starting 06/08/2018" (even after 6/8 has already passed). The current wording makes it sound like it isn't yet open.

  3. Edit Award Amount in Approval
    I would like to be able to edit the award amounts in the Approval form after they've been approved. We often need to adjust the awarded amounts between programs (requests) for an agency throughout the year, dependent on their utilization and/or the needs of a program.

  4. We would like the ability to rotate documents 90 degrees in the Document Viewer. Sometimes an applicant will upload financial statements in a form that are landscape-oriented, but they are uploaded as portrait-oriented and so appear to be sideways in the Document Viewer. It would take a lot of time and server space on our part to download each and rotate manually. Thanks!

  5. A place to see your requests to support, both open and closed, and their status. Sometimes you have multiple tickets open and if someone in my organization wants/needs an update, I cannot provide one without emailing support again.

  6. I think that it would easier to view the buckets in a linear fashion. Now I have a gap with the Denial and Follow Up buckets on the bottom which requires me to scroll down to view. Perhaps you could move them to only have 2 rows:
    LOI - LOI Evaluation - Application - Application Evaluation
    Approval - Denial - Follow Ups
    Thank you .

  7. There has been somewhat of a push in the grant making community to build risk management practices into funding relationships with non-profits. Part of building risk management into grant making is allowing for some flexibility in the availability of additional funding in the case that organizations run into unanticipated issues or require additional funding to see their program through to its success. It is often very difficult for organizations to anticipate all of the expenses that they may encounter throughout the timeline of their program. So, with particular regard to pilot programs--we would like to keep an open mind about…

  8. When you are viewing the follow ups in the process manager it would be nice if you could view the due date/time and whether or not it is a hard deadline in the bar rather than having to click on it to drop down and see that information. It would make it so much easier to make sure that all of the dates were updated correctly and that the hard deadline is on or off. As it is right now, it's pretty time consuming when you have a large amount of followups per process. Thanks!

  9. On a desktop computer with a wide screen, the extreme width of the forms, group boxes and questions can make it difficult to read the information. It'd be nice to be able to limit the width of these items as part of setting up the system, rather than having users who find it difficult to read across the entire screen resize their browser window - many don't know that's something they can do, and for those of us who do, it's an annoyance to have to resize it in order to work with GLM.

  11. For example, trying to easily sort for this on my main dashboard, without creating a report. Want to easily email all previous grantees within a process about a new opportunity. I've already created the email template using Foundant.

  12. I have several forms for three of my processes. When an applicant logs into the system to submit their proposals, the forms are automatically open. I would like to see the forms closed so that when the applicant logs into the system and begin to submit their proposal, they can see how many forms that have to complete and it won't be so overwhelming. Another idea is for each form to be a tab so when they go to submit their application, they see that the tabs at the top and now that they have several forms to complete.

  13. Regarding Show decision dates, I think that each process should have it's own decision date and that a specific date and be used instead of a spanning date.

  14. It would be great if the "thumb" to approve or unapprove an installment were a bright color or even just a larger size - something akin to what happens in Community Suite when things that you have to do are in bright red text. Thanks!

  15. Add new 'Process Type' field to processes and the 'Select Process(es)' dialogs in order to quickly filter on the list screens.

    We have processes that are specific to our organization, our partners, and each of our 10 Affiliate Foundations, so when searching for data for Affiliates I currently have to manually select each relevant process (active and archived) on the list screen each time I want to see the associated requests and forms. With 45 Affiliate processes and new ones being created every month or so, it is very tedious and time consuming to manually select each process every time.

    There is no way to cancel an organization merge unless you hit the back button. There is only the "Finish Merge". Please add "Cancel Merge"

  17. I really love the fact that Fondant has made the installment form a functional editable form under the decision tool. Thank you team!!!

    My only suggestion is it would be great if we can have the ability to link shared questions on this form. Lets face it most of the grantee financial information from the decision point is needed for both the follow-up and installment payment so it would be great to get fields like that sharable at this point. Also this must function as a validation tool that we are dealing with the right project, so some of the…

  18. Situation: I'm in a report, happily editing away, and I realize I want to edit the name and description of the data set; I do that, and the save button takes me into editing the rest of the data set, but doesn't give me a Return to Report button. Same thing happens if I edit the data set fields and press save. It took me a while to realize that I should have been pressing the Return to Report button instead of Save all along - there is a popup on the Return button that indicates that the info will…

  19. When approving or declining an application the email applicant box appears at the bottom of the application next to the Save Approval & Approval button, but not after you've either saved or approved it.
    Doesn't it make sense to email your recipient AFTER the approval, then if you are using a template with the Approval amt. fields in it, they will actually contain the approval data? If I email before approval it doesn't work and those fields come up with a zero. So my point is, can you add the email applicant button on the screen after the approval or…

  20. In other grants systems I've used, when you complete one evaluation, it moves you right into the next application for review. In Foundant, it pops you back out to the main menu where you have to manually select the next application for review. Just saves a bit of time, and makes it more obvious for new reviewers.
