  1. Change font color of administrator comments in GLM applications to make more visible

    When I add a comment to an application in GLM (and mark it so that the applicant can see it), is there a way to change the font color or make the font BOLD so that the comments are more visible to the applicant? With all the text on the page, the comments just blend in and applicants aren't seeing them - which means they call me 900 times a day!!!

  2. eligibility quiz

    In the eligibility quiz in GLM, the ability to customize a "passing" message like you can customize a "failure" message would be beneficial to make things very clear to applicants that they can move on to the application stage. We had a few organizations last cycle that passed the eligibility quiz but it wasn't entirely clear to them that they were allowed to move onto the next step in the application process.

  3. Organization Merge History

    From what I can tell, there is no way to indicate if a request is from an organization that was merged into another organization or if it was originally from the final organization. Currently, for applicant funding history (which we provide in a Merge Document) to our grant reviewers, we have to manually go through each request and figure out which was for Org A and which was for Org B. If our current staff ever leave, this knowledge will be lost or buried in the Comments tab. Is there a simple way to see this?

  4. Pop Up Message when clicking on Apply buttons

    Our Foundation supports a nonprofit healthcare system. Our Foundations grant both internally to departments to better the patient experience and externally to nonprofit organizations in the communities we serve. Therefore, we have to have an external application process and an internal application process. Multiple times this year, I had applicants moving too fast and not reading which application they were clicking the "Apply" button for and even though the questions weren't making sense, just kept going and submitting. That created a lot of rework for both our operations team and the applicant to copy the content over to the correct…

  5. Apply Page Appearance

    It would be great if the apply page could be shown in a grid or have a sort of table of contents on the side/top of the page -- we had several applicants apply to the wrong process because they clicked on the first opportunity (which takes up most of the screen). It seems some of them did not realize they could scroll/did not realize that there were multiple opportunities on the apply page.

  6. Greater space between processes on the Apply Page

    I would like to see a bigger space between multiple processes that are open on the "Apply" page. Currently, there is a tiny space between each process' "box", and our applicants frequently click the first blue "Apply" button they see.... which is often for the process below the one for which they actually want to apply. We have instructions saying to click the button at the top-right of the box but we all know people don't read well. If there was greater differentiation between the list of open grants then applicants may scroll back up to the correct Apply button.

  7. Pending Deadlines

    It would be very helpful if, on the applicant side of the dashboard, that urgent items/impending due dates could be big/red/or listed at the top of each process.
    We consistently run into grantees not being able to find their final grant report/follow up forms that are due on their dashboard because it's listed at the bottom and not called to attention in any real way.

    Also, many grantees never see the edit button to the far right because there's a large white space after the text, so they assume there's no more information and don't realize that the full page…

  8. Change Applicant Dashboard View

    A lot of our users get confused when they initially look at their applicant dashboard because all of the grant requests are expanded and finding each individual grant gets confusing. Also, the title of each grant does not stand out very well since it is just a grey button. It would be helpful if we could change the default view of the applicant dashboard so that all of the requests are collapsed, and then you can click on each to expand, instead of starting with the expanded view.

  9. Batch turn on/off "Show Applicant this Comment"

    Can there be a button that lets you turn on/off all comments' visibility to an applicant/grantee in an application/form with the click of a button? For applications, we have multiple reviewers and the grant manager has to go through each comment one by one and make it visible after all are done reviewing.

  10. Dashboard tab colors

    It would be great to have a feature where we could change the color of tabs on the applicant dashboard. We get many calls from applicants who are having difficulty navigating their dashboard and breaking up the dashboard with different colors would likely help with this.

  11. Make the Apply option more visible on the applicant dashboard.

    New applicants are seeking the apply option when they log in the first time. While the new format for the dashboard makes other navigation clearer, the Apply gets lost in the navigation bar at the top of the page. Suggest making the Apply option larger and bolded so it's more visible.

  12. Apply page

    Challenge: at most times of the year, we have between 3 and 5 processes "open" at 1 time. Some of our applicants do not realize we have several grant rounds open and do not scroll to find the correct process. They click the first apply button that they see and fill out the incorrect application! Idea: would it be possible to have the Available process have 1 line (like the dropdown in the application) so that 5 or 6 processes would show at 1 time; the applicant would click to open the drop-down description, and reveal the preview and apply…

  13. Group collapsed on applications

    When an applicant returns to the application to resume work, the groups of questions could be collapsed and if all questions within the group are complete - the group could be flagged (with a check or a color change). Or, have an option to allow the admins to create the applications in pages, which can be flagged as complete when all questions are filled in on that page.
