Color Code Organizations - Concern Level
We want to implement a green, yellow, red system to indicate concern level with some aspect of an organization's operations. would be great to have it show up in reports and when looking at list of organizations by process on the dashboard. Would be extra great to have a place to indicate the concern. Right now we are using pinned comments for this.

Is there a way to allow evaluators to submit a committee decision?
I asked Barksley: Is there a way to allow evaluators to submit a committee decision? He said: Evaluators can be assigned to requests and add decision comments when approving or denying a request, but there isn’t a built-in feature for evaluators to submit a single committee decision as a group. Each evaluator enters their input individually during the decision process. I have to create a separate google form to capture the committee's decision as a collective.

Evaluations: Availability of "White Board" common space for evaluators
Our grant committee has multiple times requested the ability for evaluators to have a "white board" type space in the evaluation process that they each can communicate with each other and ask raise questions about the grantee being reviewed so that all evaluators viewing that grantee could see what questions/clarifications are needed for that particular grantee. Right now, they communicate through me as the program manager and cannot communicate with each other through the software.

initial submission date for the LOI Evaluation/Closed buckets
This idea was submitted before by someone else and archived, bringing it back because this would be very useful for our processes. We tell our applicants that they should expect a response within 6 months, so knowing when that 6 month window is closing would be very useful.

Add the possibility to preview PDF or Excel files uploaded by clients (to avoid having to dowload all files)
Currently in single/multiple file upload fields: it is only possible to dowload the files that have been uploaded. The idea would be to have the possibility to only view/preview the file without downloading it.

Audit Foundant User hours based on assigned roles
I would like to see a feature where the amount of time spent on on evaluating grant applications can be audited/collected. This would help us measure the amount of time spent reviewing grant applications. It would be super cool if it could be filtered per person (grant evaluator) and per process. Going deeper, even if as an administrator, I could see the total amount of time spent in Foundant would be wonderful.

Group Evaluators
There should be a way to evenly split the applications assigned to evaluators. We receive many grant applications and some reviewers do not have the time to read all applications.

Auditor Role - Limit Process Access and Add Notification
The auditor role is good for people who need to see and report on a particular grant but they are able to see all the other grant process. It would be great to be able to limit what processes auditors can see. Also, being able to add an auditor to be notified when applications in that process are submitted would be a very handy feature!

Third Board Member Evaluator
It would be great if we could add a third evaluator to our processes. We follow the USDA process when reviewing applications, with a primary and secondary reviewer each weighted differently, then a board member reviewer. The board member solely assigns a grade to the application, so there is no need to go through the evaluation form and questions. Foundant Support has been great about helping us with a work around with this but ultimately, the addition of a third evaluator would solve all of our issues.

evaluation
It would be great if the evaluators could add a live link in the evaluation comments section to highlight, for example, a link from the organization.

Make the graph sizes smaller in the fund history part on portal
The graph size on the fund portal is very large. I would like to see the option of changing the size of the graphs.

reviewer panel
For one grants cycle this year, we received 222 eligible applications that then are reviewed by 86 reviewers. We frequently get a large number of applications and reviewers, although this year is the biggest one so far in a long time! We assign reviewers to different panels, which are groups of people who all review the same applications. We make these application/reviewer assignments outside of Foundant, but it would be really helpful if we could group applications/reviewers by panel in Foundant. Without it, we have to send out communications manually basically, going back and forth to an external Excel document…

Remove an Applicant
I really need a way to remove an applicant without "abandoning" them or "denying" them. If I deny, they find out they didn't win the award. If I abandon, it goes to their request history, and then they can see it and email with questions. There are times we just need to remove them. An example would be: Our donor's evaluate, and one year there was an applicant in the pool for her son's memorial scholarship, that had bullied the deceased son. She came to us, and we needed to remove that applicant. There are instances where we just need…

Students using Copy Process are bringing over admin answers
We have renewable scholarships and ask the students to fill out a shortened version of the application for their renewal award. We just had a student fill out their shortened renewal application, but when I went to review it, there were internal admin-only questions that were already answered! I double checked the process and they are listed as internal so the student shouldn't have been able to see those questions so how was he able to answer them?
It turns out the student used the Copy Process feature to copy answers from his original application to help him fill out…

Evaluation "side by side" lock
It would be helpful if Evaluators could "lock" the dotted line that allows them to split the screen between the Application & Evaluation. Having to reset it with each of over 200 applications is both a pain and adds up to a lot of time.

Allow more than 2 Evaluations for a process
Allow for more than 2 Evaluations for a process. We have different groups of reviewers that would evaluate the same applications against a different set of criteria.

Hide Score Column on the Evaluator Dashboard
We definitely need the ability to add at least three custom columns - 2 is just too few. But while we are limited in the number of columns we can add, it is heartbreaking to have a precious Evaluator column wasted on a system column we don't use. Additionally, because this particular column is there we can't use the Scoring question type, because it will populate this columns with numbers that won't mean anything to our Evaluators and will confuse them. We rank on a 1 through 4 scale with 1 the highest and 4 the lowest - only the…

Enable administration of a "blinded" review without having to update Application form multiple times (i.e., visibility of questions for Applicant, visibility for Evaluation 1 blinded review, visibility for Evaluation 2 unblinded). Since there is one Application form ("master") this is very challenging and presents potential for errors.

SLM: Adding Upload Responses to Quick Grid Views
We would like to request that Upload Responses, such as transcripts, be added to the Submitted and Complete bucket Quick Grid Views. Often, we need to pull transcripts or other uploads quickly, and it's difficult to go into each student's application to search, view, and download transcripts. If the uploads appeared in the Quick Grid View, we would be able to view these uploads more efficiently.

Reviewer assignments -suggestion for reviewers to access app's at later date
It would be great to be able to assign reviewers to applications on X date, but for the reviewers to not be able to access the applications until a later date and time that could be set in Foundant.
