Change font color for SLM
Once the student hits submit on the UA, is there a way to change the font color of those opportunities that have additional information pending. Currently everything is black or blue, would like to change the "EDIT APPLICATION" to RED to catch the students eye.

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!

Assign evaluations by student in the Evaluation Assigned bucket
Our evaluations are done by student and if I need to edit evaluations assignments in the Evaluation Assigned bucket, it's very hard to ensure all of a student's opportunities are assigned to the same evaluator when I have to assign by opportunity instead of by student. This is still not possible with the new update if a student has already been assigned to evaluators. This is the message that is received: One or more selected request(s) has an evaluation already assigned. If they are in the assigned bucket then of course they will already have evaluators assigned to them so…

Move Requests With Follow-Ups to Different Organization
This functionality was previously available before the update to allow multiple organizations for one user account. This is useful when we have national organizations which apply on behalf of smaller local organizations - oftentimes they will complete the grant agreements and other initial follow-ups, and then the local organization would take over managing reporting for the rest of the lifecycle of the grant award. This is also applicable to fiscal sponsors that manage multiple awards for various organizations, and it makes it easier for us to break them out by each program when pulling reports as needed.
1 voteThis was also discussed in idea lab webinar April 2024.
What checks would be need in place to make sure the user assigned the follow up is also in the organization?
Are there concerns around changing the Organization of an awarded Grant?
Any additional workflows are helpful.

Group by student for administrators
Create a "group by student" button similar to the one for evaluators that allows administrators to group by student in the dashboard buckets.

Add Progress Bar for Student's View and Submissions
I'd love for students to be able to see a color coded progress bar on their full submission, similar to the evaluator's progress bar. I have so many students who do not submit the additional applications they are eligible for because they think their application is complete. Since the Universal Processes show up on their page random/alphabetical, they do not see the "Assigned/Edit" and "Submitted/View" which I am trying to explain in emails to both counselors and students.

Transfer of info to next year's application
Some of our scholarships are available to students already in college, so they can apply multiple years in a row. It would therefore be nice to provide a feature in the SLM universal application in which they can transfer certain items/ answers from one year's universal app to another. This would save them time. Perhaps we could determine what we would allow to be transferred when we set up each new universal app, or what questions MUST be answered by all. Again, time saver for returning applicants.

Opportunity Name Merge on Shared Supplemental Questions
It would be nice to have a 'merge template' concept included in the supplemental questions so that applicants see "[Scholarship Opportunity Name] Supplemental Questions" when they are working on each opportunity. This will help them remember which set of supplemental questions they are completing when they may have multiple opportunities still open.

UA Opportunity Printing
In the UA, it would be nice if we could print a pdf of individual opportunities for the donor(s) to review that only has the eligibility questions and supplemental questions of the individual opportunity listed.

UA- Assign evaluations for a reviewer across different processes
UA- Assign evaluations for a reviewer across different processes. We have randomized reviews for our UA applicants (usually 500 applicants) and 70+ reviewers. It is so time consuming to assign each evaluator to their 20 applicants (which can be 200+ unique processes for each evaluator).
This is similar to another idea, but I want to make sure it inlcdes UA too.

Mass update opportunity names
I need there to be a way to mass update opportunities in a universe. Going in one at a time to 150+ scholarship names to change it from 2023 to 2024 is maddening and not an effective use of time.

Award Details Grant Total Line
Add a Grant Total Line on Award Details Tab so that we don't have to go back to the Application or Follow-ups to figure out how much we have given and still owe.

Application Start date in application drafts bucket
Often times we extend the application for only specific students (however, this can range from 50 ot more or less students). I do not know the names of the students since the school cannot divulge that information. I was hoping to look at the start date of their drafted application in order to identify the students I am extending the opportunity for based on the donors request. A start date in the drafted applications would be very helpful for this purpose.

Hide (redact) personal info from reviewers.

Be able to still show name, but not personal contact info.11 votes -
Ability to mark Ineligible Universe Requests in Eligibility Center as "reviewed/resolved."
The Ineligible Universe Request tab is helpful, but it would be improved if there could be a way to mark each one as reviewed/resolved. I periodically check this tab, but am having difficulty tracking which ones are new and yet to be reviewed.

Ability to Copy Universe in SLM
We would like to have the feature of copying Universes so we don't have to go back to Sandbox, edit, and then port over to the main site. We made many changes in the live site hoping we could copy for next year, and realized that functionality doesn't exist.

Applicant Copy Functionality for UA
It would be great if students could use the applicant copy functionality from processes to the UA and vise versa. We have both stand alone processes and a universal application (different timelines). We have approx.. 250 students who apply to both. It would be great if they could import answers from one to the other.

Print Universal Application questions by opportunities
It would be helpful to be able to print just the questions associated with one opportunity in the Universal Application. Currently you can preview, but when you print the questions list it prints the entire UA. Donors like to be able to see their application, and aren't interested in and get confused by seeing more than what they need.
