Grant committee view follow ups
I would like the Grant evaluators to be able to see the final report follow up. But I don't need them to do anything with it - just have access to view the information.

Batch Print
I would love an option to batch print every application in each process. Currently I need to go in to each application and open the PDF to print. Would be nice to be able to select all and print.
117 votesHi All,
As of today, May 4th 2022, we released our first version of batch print/download
There are two ways to use this functionality:
1. From applicant facing forms work load pages (LOI, Applications, and Follow Ups) you will now have the option to Batch Print the print packet.
2. From request & decisions you can now create PDFs of the documents in a single large doc or into a zipped file.
To learn more about this functionality go to support hub and search "Print" or "Download"
If you have additional thoughts on how to improve this functionality please create a new idea lab item or reach out to me directly.

Add "Overdue" item to Follow Up section on dashboard (and corresponding list) to be able to quickly determine follow ups that may need follow up.

Scholarships: Email template event type
It would be great to have an event type of reminder to applicant for incomplete applications similar to Third Party Reminder
5 votesWith our February 2024 release you can created automated emails for applications in draft.
This current implementation only allows for one reminder but we are continue to iterate on this functionality, and encourage that if you would like to be able to set multiple reminders please like this idea to keep up todate: https://idealab.foundant.com/forums/339786/suggestions/42009139

It would be great if there was a way for administrators to toggle between viewing as admin to viewing as an applicant and as an evaluator.
Currently, we have had to create test accounts as an applicant and as an evaluator and then have to sign in and out of each one to test how I processes will look and work.

"Back to Top" and "Bottom" Buttons!
I spend a lot of time scrolling to the bottom or back up to the top when reviewing applications, and a top and bottom button would be very helpful. Thank you!

Printing a Hard Copy of the Application - Made Easy
My un-tech savvy applicants can't remember how to print a hard-copy of their application. I think if you hover on "Application Package" or "Question List" it should say "Print here"!!!
There may be other options that solve this problem as well.6 votesWith our December 2024 release, we’ve rolled out exciting improvements to enhance every step of the applicant journey.
If you feel something could still be improved, we’d love to hear from you! Please share your feedback on this Idea Lab post and help us shape the future of the applicant experience:https://idealab.foundant.com/forums/339786/suggestions/49176485

Automatic Reminder Emails for Follow-up Reports and Applications
I would also love to be able to customize the 14 day submission reminder, or at least add another reminder 2 or 3 days prior to due date. And it would be fantastic if I could also do this with applications as well as follow-up forms.
16 votesWith our February 2024 release you can created automated emails for applications in draft. To edit the timeframe for this email and follow up you may do this through settings.

Ability to customize grant print packet
It would be great if you could "customize" what pieces of the grant packets you could include in one PDF instead of only being able to create a separate PDF of the Application, Decision Form, Follow Up Form and never being able to include any of the uploaded documents in the "Documents" tab. It would be helpful to have a "Print" option that allows you to pick and choose all of the "printable" pieces for a single grant in one pdf.
An example, our auditors wanted to see the Application, Decision Form and Follow Up Forms (some grants had up…

Make the "Edit" on the Follow up Reports Bigger, Bolder or more obvious. Grantees can't see it!
Grantees are frequently asking where do they enter their follow up reports. It's just not obvious on their Dashboard.
92 votesHi Everyone!
As of our Nov 2023 the Edit links for Follow Ups have been replaced with Buttons.
The button with say, START, CONTINUE, VIEW or PREVIEW depending on the status up the follow up. We hope this is more clear and easier for applicants to find.
If you have additional feedback be ask that you add that to a new idea!

Add a logo to authenticate screen
The authenticate screen has caused a few of our grantees issue. Primarily, the screen is so generic that you are unable to tell what funder you are authenticating into. In Montana, many of our grantees have other funders using Foundant and if the authenticate screen comes up they aren't able to tell what funder they are authenticating into, resulting in frustration. This morning, I had an individual who wasn't able to log in to our site on the authenticate screen using her username and password, and it turns out it was the authenticate screen for a different funder she was…

Scholarships
:) Hiding scholarship applicants name, address etc (from committees) would wonderful to make our system better and to make sure that we are doing our level best with 2 items: 1: protect the students that are applying. 2: minimizing the potential for bias and conflict of interests... we are in a small community where names can be too familiar or unfamiliar or sound different. Flexibility in sharing names and info would be great.

Deciphering Tabs between GLM & SLM Programs
Since the GLM portal is used for the SLM, deciphering between the two tabs on top for each programs when both are open can become cumbersome. Since they say the same title on the tab, it would be nice to have a different color icon - blue for Scholarship & green for Grants. At times I have 10 tabs open and I find myself searching and clicking more then once to verify I'm using the correct program.
The main concern is acknowledging each program on the tabs for convenience and quick access. Time is precisous. Thank you.

Administrator Notification when New Accounts are Created
We have just launched our GLM site and asked our grantees to register in the system. I wish there was a way for the administrators to be notified when a new organization creates a new account in our system. I can see the benefits of this for our invitation-only foundation, but even more so with other foundations so they can learn who is interested in their foundation to help foster new relationships.
8 votesA new organization created email was introduced in the January 2024 Release. Review the support hub to learn more.

applicant grant history
I just added a new contact to an organization and assigned their request to that person. I then checked the username and password for the new contact by logging in to her account. I noticed that all she could see was the current request (LOI, Application, and Follow-Ups). I think everyone who is an active contact for that organization should see all prior requests.

Show a follow up as "locked" when applicants have another follow up to complete prior
When an applicant has multiple follow ups they have an option of "edit" on the follow up they are working on, and the other follow up's options are blank. I get a lot of questions about why an applicant cant complete their follow up (when they have one due prior).
I think it might be helpful to have that say something like "locked". Then perhaps have the info "i" icon to tell them why they cant access the follow up.

Ability to edit List Items
It would be great to be able to edit a single list item. We have new funds created throughout the year that we need to add to a drop down list on a decision form after that form and question has already been used. On occasion, we've had human error occur with a typo or having been assigned a duplicate fund ID by mistake. Have the opportunity to go in an correct the spelling error or edit the name of an item part way through the year on a drop down list would be helpful.

retain search list
It would save several clicks if the search was retained, and could be accessed by clicking the back arrow after selecting an item from the search. It would be even better if you place in the list was retained and you were automatically returned to that position.
