Printing application & Returning to saved application
From one of our grantees:
When saving application DRAFTS, it would be easier and save us time if the application returned to the question that we were last writing rather than to a separate page where we then need to return to the top of the application page and find the question where we left off.
Also, if we could print the DRAFT applications directly, rather than downloading a PDF first, that would again be a timesaver.

Business Titles
Is there any way to have the applicant's business title, as well as the primary contact's business title, listed on the cover page of the application and follow-up forms? Their other data, such as address, phone #, etc. is there and it would be nice to have the business title listed as well so you don't have to go back into contacts to find it. This would be especially helpful for the evaluators when it is a new or unfamiliar organization applying for a grant.

Customize Project Name Field
I would love to be able to edit the "Project Name" Field for our evaluators. Right now I change the "Project Name" within the application, but for our evaluators, the bar still reads "Project Name"

Adding Hyperlink Capability for Applicants
Several applicants have asked how to add hyperlinks to their applications. Please allow hyperlinks on future applications. There is often a character or word count limit for open calls (due to the high submission numbers) and hyperlinks are an invaluable tool for applicants.
6 votesAre you looking for this to be allowed in a text area responses or a separate area for links?

copy previous answers
We are currently use processes for each scholarship we hold at our Foundation. We have a scholarship advisory committee for each scholarship. We have some people who serve on multiple scholarship committees, so they do end up evaluating the same applicant for multiple scholarships. We are recommending that evaluators have the ability to copy previous scores/comments from one evaluation to another for the same applicant. For example, if they are evaluating on their GPA and academic performance, that won't change from application to application. They are requesting to copy the scores and comments as a previous answer to another evaluation…

Change Check # to Payment # in Installments
Since COVID, most foundations have moved away from paper checks to ACH payments. It would be helpful to change the name of the field in Installments/Make a Payment from Check Number to Payment Number.

operations account aggregator
We would like an account aggregator that feeds directly from our main bank account into our general ledger (or someplace). We have missed transactions (due to human error) and this would prevent us from missing transactions that occur in our checking account.

Remove evaluator
We need functionality to remove an evaluator from a panel after that evaluator (or other evaluators) have begun scoring. Presently, the only way to do this is to revert the application, which removes the work of other evaluators.
We have encountered 2 situations this year where an evaluator discovered a conflict of interest after they started scoring. We need to remove them or at least remove the scores from the applications they completed. RIght now that will be a manual process.

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!

Set CSuite Service Area and Grant Type in GLM approval form
Our grant approval workflow include setting the value for custom fields in the grant approval form (grant subtype, type of support, etc.). Then the Service Area and Grant Type need to be added after the grant is synced with CSuite. It would be SO helpful to be able to set the CSte Service Area and Grant Type field here as well so that coding does not have to be done in two places. In other words, change from a read-only field in GLM to an editable field like the custom field are.

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.

Make "Request History" reportable
Please make "Request History" a reportable field. For example, if I want to know who approved a crop of our requests, I have to go to each individual request and check the history. This is something we should be able to grab quickly.

Applicant Filter
From the SLM Dashboard we have the ability to Filter by Processes. In the same way it would be great to be able to Filter by Applicant.
We do not use universal application so this filter would allow us to group, screen and use Batch options based on an applicant name.
2 votesWe recently introduced Filters to the workload grids. Through these filters, you can narrow down the list by applicant name. Reach out to support@foundant.com to learn more, and please let us know if this helps you manage your workflows.

due date application and third party
Would love to have the ability to set a separate due date for third-party responses. For example, student application is due March 15th and the system closes, but third-party due date is March 22nd then automatically closes.

Improve navigation
Would love to see a shortcut for going between work pages. For example, if I'm on Follow Ups Draft, and I want to go to LOI drafts, or applications evaluation assigned, I have to click the home button to get back to my dashboard, then into the next work page. If there was a dropdown in the navigation bar (perhaps only for administrators?) "Go To...) then a list of pages, we could go directly without bouncing back and forth across the dashboard. Not critical, but (especially on days when the site is running slowly) that extra step really adds up…

Turn off Copying for Third Party Questions
If returning applicants use the copy feature, unfortunately, the system also copies their previously received third party letters of recommendation. In other words, letters of recommendation from the prior grant cycle are copied to the new application.
Please allow us to turn off copying for third party questions.

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.
