  1. Sometimes I need to create a set of the same question multiple times within the same process/application. For instance, I might need an option to add an address for a second parent/guardian and I don't want to have to create all the address fields again. I'd rather just duplicate the previous group and edit the heading.

    A similar solution might be to create a question bank of all fields that have been created within the instance and then be able to select any I'd like to add.

  2. Please allow for the ability to upload multiple files to a single upload question.

    Currently, it is only possible to upload one file per question. It would be very helpful and much more effective if the File Upload question type allowed for multiple files to be uploaded to a single upload question, as opposed to needing one file upload question for each upload.

    Alternatively, the option to upload a folder to a file upload question would be another possible remedy.

  3. Every other form builder application allows you to add an "Other: _____" text box at the end of Checkbox questions. It's a simple way to catch exceptions that you're not thinking of.

  4. It would be great if we could have 'other' as an option for a radio question that gives you (the builder) the choice to automatically produce a text box for applicants to input data around their selection. Currently you have to build 'other' into the question and then build a branched question group, which can not only get messy, but can make the application flow feel very disjointed, depending on the build.

  5. I use branching logic all the time. Creating groups is not logical. Creating branching logic on the question would be nice without creating a group.

  6. We're updating our form, and would like to retroactively make the changes to 2 closed processes to improve reporting. It would save time and reduce errors to copy a question and add it to another process.

  8. We would love the ability to limit the number of check marks applicants are able to select on certain checkbox questions. We ask folks to limit the number their choices, but often times they over select.

  9. It would be really helpful for the organizer in me to be able to move around/re-arrange Follow Up Forms as well as Decisions. When creating new ones they go straight to the bottom, but if I could group them together in ways that would help my workflow that would be great!

  11. 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…

  12. Previous similar requests have been archived. I am revising this request, hoping it will gain traction.

    It would be nice to be able to drag and drop, or place questions next to each other than have them just cascade down the page. If a question was short enough, it would be nice to save space and place it next to another short question. This would be beneficial for multiple radio button or drop down questions.

  13. Allow information from the organization and user details to auto-fill answers to questions in any form. For example, on the application form if the question is organization submitting an application that information would auto-populate based on the organization the user is linked to. Another example, would be if there is a question on the applicant form that asks who is completing the application, that information based on the user information of the person logged in.

  14. It would be really great to have access to similar features in both SLM & GLM when you have the same license level. For example we have standard license for both but only have access to Third Party References in SLM, whereas in order to access that in GLM, you have to upgrade to the Advanced License.

  15. I would like an established set of questions (or ability to establish a system set for our org) within the SLM to choose from when building applications so that they can more easily become shared questions (meaning that information can prepopulate in other forms once established on a foundational form like a scholarship application). Particularly, a student's institution name and student ID is needed for us on multiple forms - I need a cleaner way for that to populate across the board (especially when coming into a position and working through different word choices on questions from one year to…

  16. Change the symbol of the Integer question type away from a # to something else.

    In our application we ask for percent of people served in our county. We built that question with the integer question type because that was the only question type where we could restrict the entry to two numerical digits.

    But our applicants and reviewers are confused because we are asking for a percentage but the little symbol next to it is the number sign, so it almost looks like we are asking for the raw number of people, not the percent of people.

  18. I'm aware we currently have the capability to branch questions off of aggregated table cells (thank you for implementing!). However, any plans in the near future to branch off of any individual cell responses? That would be so much more helpful for us.

    For example, we currently ask on an application for org. leaders' demographic percentages to be entered in a table and one of the categories is "Other historically disenfranchised groups". If they indicate a % in that cell other than 0, a branched text area question appears asking them to name the specific group(s). Since it's required to…

  19. We use tables to collect budget information, one table for revenue and one table for expenses. We'd love to be able to calculate the net revenue taking the total from revenue less total expenses.

  20. The request history table in the print packet is so helpful. Board members and evaluators really like to have a quick snapshot of this information.

    It would be great if we could
    1) pull this table into application or evaluation form as an internal field or
    2) create a field with the option to make request history pop out as an external window
    or any solution that offers a simple way to have eyes on request history to those folks who spend little time in the database and don't feel comfortable with extra clicks

    Thank you!
