Simple LOI fix to reduce confusion for Applicants
There is a red circle with a backslash icon that appears when applicants try to copy and paste from their LOI to Proposal Application. This icon confuses Applicants because they are in fact able to copy and paste.
I am getting several emails from applicants who don't understand they can still copy and paste. Please delete the confusing red circle backslash icon.

Batch emails to users assigned to committees (UA)
An idea! Currently, there is no way to batch email only users who are actively assigned to a scholarship committee. There is only a way to email all users who have scholarship committee as their role. This would be helpful with sending pre evaluation updates before evaluations are assigned. Currently, you have to manually send out emails to those assigned to committees.

Question List
It would be helpful if we could print the question list based on the current preview options. When using the Universal Application there are supplemental questions for specific opportunities. You can preview as a Reviewer and for a specific opportunity, which allows you to see what the reviewer will see when evaluating applications for that specific committee. But if you choose the Question List from that point, so that it can be printed or downloaded, it brings up everything, even the "administrator only" questions. We need to be able to print a Question List to send to our External Committee's…

automatic email order
With the new feature that allows a grants administrator to select which auto-emails should even appear in the auto-email list, it seems to be sorting them in a random fashion. I would like the auto-emails list to be sorted by stage in the follow-up lifecycle. See the attached file for an illustration.

Flag submitted applications that have outstanding issues
Flag submitted applications that have outstanding issues:
Sometimes submitted applications are technically complete, but additional information is still needed. It would be great if we could flag requests that have been reviewed but have outstanding issues that we'd like to address before marking them as "Complete."

SLM Committee Overhaul
We would like to see an overhaul of the SLM Committee features. It would be great if we could see the email address associated with the committee members within each committee, drill into each user directly, and have some type of drill in from the Universe or vice versa.

Organization Saved Searches
On the organization search page, could there be a section at the bottom with recent searches, or perhaps your own personalized list of organizations you want to keep handy?

More detailed budget planning tool, including a provisional budget option
I would love to have access to a dynamic budget planning tool, that allow me to have a global budget for my fiscal year, with various funding streams options AND with a provisional budget option that would take into account the proposed amount we enter in yet-to-be approved requests.
For the time being, I use an Excel file to achieve this, which is time consuming and error-prone. This option would save so much time!

pdf with no comments
We use the Administrator Comments feature to provide draft review feedback to our applicants. Many applicants use the comments, then want us to remove them so that they can create a clean PDF of their completed application. We don't want to delete our comments as that is part of the grant process record, but we also don't want reviewers to be able to see the comments. Right now, our only option is to make all the comments not visible to applicants, proxy as the applicant, download the PDF, then make all the comments visible to the applicant again. This is…

scholarship deadline
In the Process Manager, I would like to see a button or indication that a scholarship deadline has passed.
Also, being able to filter scholarships in the process manager would be helpful. This could include filtering by process name, start date, and end date.

Assigning Evaluators
I would love to have a search option when evaluators are assigned. We have over 150 potential evaluators so it would be helpful to be able to search by name instead of scrolling to find the evaluator's name.

Suppressing Applicant Name / Project Field in Evaluation
We have 20+ scholarships that want applicant names suppressed from applications in the evaluation process. We have always had the student fill out the "Project Name" field with their name. This year, we had everything setup to suppress applicant details from the evaluators, but did not realize that the "Project Name" cannot be suppressed. We had to manually go in and change every student's name to a code in the Project Name field.
Short of instructing students in the future to not use their name as the project name field, is there any chance the Project Name field could also…

Show Decision Status
Instead of a site-wide setting of showing the decision status and follow-up forms "x" days after the decision is made, it would be helpful to be able to set a particular DAY the decisions will be visible. This would allow us to approve and assign forms over a span of the scholarship cycle but NOT alert the student until a particular day. We would be able to better communicate with students, and high schools, on when awards will be announced. (Example, I could do the administrative work on our end from April 10th thru 28th, but all notifications and forms…

Submit button for Internal Process for Administrators
Please provide a Submit button for Administrators when they are Copying Requests into an Internal Process. Do not make us have to select the option while copying that the Initial Submit Status has to be Submitted. I would like to create a Draft and go in and edit away in fields and then Submit the request when I feel it is ready, it is an Internal process anyway, and I am an Administrator.
Sure it is fine to go and select the Submitted choice when copying, but maybe I just want to submit it later, not when I am creating…

Move the Copy Request option of Select Initial Status to the top of the list of Process selections
Back in the day, when you could Copy Request, we could just copy into Draft and still be able to submit as an Applicant without too much stress. At least, that is how I remember the system working. Especially working with Internal Processes. We may have even had a Submit button at the bottom. I don't recall exactly, but now, it's a bit more work.
Now, I have to be sure to scroll to the bottom of my long list of processes to be able to find the Select Initial Status options and be sure to select the Submitted option-particularly…

Process filter on dashboards
Is there a way to add a message that pops up somewhere on the dashboard that reminds the user there are process filters applied? This is especially important for evaluators who are only in the system one time period each year.

Third Evaluation Option
It would be helpful to have more than 2 evaluation options for Universal Applications. Scholarship Opportunities vary vastly in what is important. Being able to have the Internal Evaluation and a choice of either the complex or simple evaluation form for the 2nd choice would be most helpful!

Organization Viewable by Applicant - Primary Contact
Add an option to the 'Organization Viewable by Applicant' site setting in GLM to be able to set the visibility to users marked as the primary contact. It'd give us an option that is more restrictive that the 'all' option but more automated than the 'user-by-user' option.

document viewer indicator
It would be helpful to have an indicator for the number of documents in Document Viewer similar to the indicator on the Documents tab.
