  1. Every download has the same name. It is confusing when you're downloading many different applications/evals/etc for internal archiving. The downloaded file needs the process name and the applicant name and year when I download. I just end up with ApplicationPacket (1), ApplicationPacket (2), etc., I have to rename every single file one by one so I don't lose track of which is which.

  2. At BACF we have 11 different committees that review applications based on their funding alignment. Our current process is running a universal application. We then create individual processes for each of our committees, and manually copy applications into the processes for the committees that will review it. For example, we may get a funding request from the American Red Cross that has funding alignment across 3 different committees. I would then manually copy that request into each of the three processes for those committees to review.

    Where this becomes cumbersome is that I have to go into each application individually…

  3. Under the View Organization History system setting, it would be helpful to have an option of "Organization-by-Organization". Right now there are three options 1)All, 2)None, 3) User-by-user. It would be helpful to have it an option for Organization-by-Organization for those orgs who have the same EIN# but separate local chapters (or schools, in the case of a school district). For these type of applicants, we only want them to see their own chapter's information; but for all the rest of our nonprofit applicants, with the high turnover of NPO staff, it's helpful for them to see their entire organizational history.

  4. A Chat feature to be able to help students in the moment could be very helpful.

    Student behavior - Once they leave an application it is hard to get them back to finish it. Students are used to using a CHAT feature when they need help. They often won't pick up a phone for help & are hesitant to send emails.

    I would rather help them in the moment then spend time on my Dashboard figuring out why they have some applications in draft, some in submitted and emailing them how to keep going. (Students often don't read emails)

    It…

  5. I do see this was brought up in years past, but was hoping to renew interest in the topic. It would be great when using the Date question type to be able to select the format in which you would like that date provided. It would be great to be able to ask for a month and year, for example, especially when asking for degree conferral dates, where a specific day is often not known.

  6. When building anything that applies to specific applicant opportunities (eligibility rules, scorecard questions and groups, application questions etc.) one must open the rule, select the Applicant Opportunites tab and scroll down a potentially very long list (133 and counting in our case) to verify which opportunities and how many have been selected. This allows a lot of room for error and creates uncertainty that the accurate number of opportunities has been selected prompting the builder to scroll up and down the list manually counting several times to verify.

    It would be wildly helpful if the rule, group, or question displayed…

  7. Our GPA question asks for 2 digits after the decimal point and we have "require right digits" turned on, but students are still able to submit a GPA with only one digit after the decimal point.

    Foundant support said "I learned from our technical engineering team that the functionality is working as expected. The way the number of digits after the decimal works is similar to a maximum character count. As you've entered it in your application, there can be up to two decimal points. When clicking require right digits it means there has to be something entered up to…

  8. Add a Search Bar on request history page, within an organization summary.

    It would really help if we could search requests by process in the organization 's grant history. We can alphabetize them today, but using a search would help us.

  9. It would be wonderful if you could assign across processes within the universal application after an application is in the "evaluation assigned" bucket. I often have reviewers who are unable to complete their assignments and I have to manually reassign hundreds of individual applications. This functionality is so helpful in the "complete" bucket.

  10. When you click into Organizations, you can perform a basic "duplicate search" and easily merge duplicates. I would love to see this same option for contacts.

  11. It would be extremely helpful if we could indicate that a grant is an annually recurring opportunity, so that it would automatically be created each year, rather than having to do so manually.

  12. It would be good for users to be able to edit/change the button text description in the grant request portal for fundadvisors. Our donors have found it confusing after entering their grant request to land on the page with the button "REVIEW GRANT REQUESTS" that needs to be clicked in order to land on the next page to then "SUBMIT GRANT". Possible change text from Review to Submit. The button on the next landing page can read "Confirm or Process Grant Requests

  13. Can custom columns be added to the "select user" popup box when assigning evaluators to a process? Helpful column options would be email address and organization name. Sometimes there are evaluators with the same name, or with duplicate accounts from changing organizations and making a new account at their new organization without informing me as the administrator, which makes it difficult to see if I'm assigning evaluations to the correct account.

  14. Still need more characters for instruction questions. I am building a grant agreement today and have a table that i'm trying to copy and paste into an instruction question (from word) and it is 639 characters too long! :-(. Maybe up it to 5000? Pretty please!?!

  17. It would be really helpful to ask all system users/contacts for their preferred gender pronouns (e.g. she/her/hers, he/him/his, they/them/their, and so on). In this day and age, it's important to people to be correctly addressed.
