standard payment form
We created a payment authorization form via merge template that we use to send approval to our finance department to create a check. (See https://basecamp.foundant.com/eco_player.php?id=520) This seems like something that should come standard in the system - so that others don't have to create one for themselves. This could be done easily by adding it to the merge fields generated for each process, as one of the pages. Or, a separate form could be created, sort of like a print packet.

Process summary at top of dashboard
When only one process is selected on the dashboard, it'd be great to have a very brief summary, mainly the name of the process and the open/close dates, displayed to the right of "Dashboard." This way I won't have to go into the process manager to know how many days are left before applications are due for that process. This would be helpful in gauging the number of applications submitted/started so far.

follow up
It would really be nice to have the tabs that show on the Request Summary page also show up on the follow up review page. Right now I have to review a follow up, return to the Request Summary page to click on the Follow up tab to review their next follow up. We have two that are due about the same time and if the follow up tab would be available from the Follow up review page, I could just click and go rather than the longer process I have now. Anybody else?
Thanks!

Must add to total
It would be great to be able to ask a series of related integer questions that are either automatically totaled or that must add to a total. For example, if I am asking total number of people served, but I have several questions about the number of people provided different types of services, I would want all the sub/service types to add to the total, either on its own, or to prompt the applicant that their sub fields don't add up

Award Details/Payment Information
It would be extremely helpful if there were a way to incorporate key payment information into the main box under award details for each recipient. Since we use the program for scholarship administration and our payments are made directly to individual schools this would include name/address/account #. It would save a lot of time as we currently we have to maintain a separate spreadsheet or constantly switch between multiple screens to process payments. We've started trying to incorporate the information into the conditions field for each installment but this is also time consuming to set-up.

Merge Projects
I know that it's possible to merge organizations. It would be great if we could merge projects as well! Sometimes organizations enter the same project (student name) twice and complete the follow ups on the student in the wrong process. This error can really mess up our reporting.

Ability to see if an applicant used GuideStar (G4G) to complete their request.
We have implemented G4G in one of our Processes. However, we don't know how many of our applicants are using it - there is no way to tell if info was brought over from GuideStar or entered manually.
Please work with GS to make this visible in some way.

Add "today" button to date picker / calendar
(Posting for colleague Trudy Wild, and I like this idea as well:)
When making a payment, it would be very helpful to have a TODAY option on the date window, to be able to select the current date for payment request. If not an option, it might be possible—and again helpful—if it could autoselect or even indicate the current date, to find the date.4 votesThanks for your time in the idea lab.

Followup Deadlines Issues
Many issue arise when several followups are assigned regarding the deadline. Would like to suggest that the while the deadline is the major factor, allow grantees to enter data and even submit followups without being hampered by the deadline.

Locking and Unlocking Groups in a Process
Is there a way to lock and unlock the "Groups" in a process? It seems that they get unintentionally re-arranged.

Sort follow ups by form name, then by due date.
It would be great to have the ability to sort follow ups first by form name, then by due date. Right now you can only sort the follow ups by one field. I would like to be able to sort all the Final Reports as a group, then within that group sort them by Due Date, then the Interim Reports the same way.

2 part installments
We are planning on changing our payment schedules to twice a year and would like to label the installments something like: installment 5 part 1 and installment 5 part 2. Breaking installments into 2 parts would help us out immensely!

Selecting evaluation teams
We do 12 grant rounds per year and 12 different eval teams. Our list of evaluators is long. I love that we can search by name when selecting our evaluation teams... would it be possible to add a column to the Evaluator selection page for organizations? This way I could create and org for each committee and would be able to quickly select my eval team for that grant round. Thanks for considering this :)

In evaluations, there should be a way to decline to review an LOI due to COI.
In some situations, even the hint of a conflict of interest can stink up a good reputation. I think being able to decline to review an LOI before accessing the LOI (based on the applicant name or organization) would be a great addition! In academia, COIs are constantly there and it is a small world!

Manually ordering buckets
It would be great to manually order buckets. Right now we would like to group grant applications by focus area. I understand that they can only be ordered by the categories along the top, and I'm not asking for a focus area category on the list, but if we could move them manually, I could put them in the order I want, by myself...just a suggestion. Thanks!

Blind evaluations by process instead of as a site attribute
We have only one process that requires true anonymous evaluations. It is very important those reviewers not see the organization information block. However, the evaluation period coincides with evaluations of other processes that need the organization information block. We would greatly appreciate being able to turn on this feature for only one process instead of the whole site to work for all of our committees! Thanks!

Installment date calculating

Data integrity - disallow editing of older request data
I would like to see some more controls regarding historical data.
For example, I think it would be helpful to have a setting creating rules to help alleviate user errors (miskey, accidents, etc.). I would like to see the ability to "close" a period in time, allowing only certain types of input from that date forward. This would allow an admin to decide: okay 2016 is "closed", we don't expect any more payments to happen with 2016 dates and no more decision with 2016 dates. With that, the system would disallow a decision date or payment date prior to 1/1/2017…

Amount Awarded, shared question comma
It would be very helpful if the comma would carryover from the Approval stage Amount Awarded when it is a shared question in a follow up. Without the comma it is very difficult for grant recipients to read the amount awarded, especially when there are multiple zeros in the dollar amount.
The dollar sign and comma appear in the Follow Up Packet and Approval Packet. This makes me wonder if it's a system glitch.
Thanks!
