more characters for instruction questions
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!?!

Additional Custom Columns
We really need more than 2 custom columns to be able to accurately sort and filter Applications both for Evaluator assignment by the administrators, and for our Evaluators doing the rating. Even just one more custom column would make a big difference. I've requested elsewhere, but in case there is a connection, we would also appreciate the reverse, which is to hide the default columns we don't need - or at least the Score column, which is just very confusing given the way our process works, so we do the best we can to hide it, but it is very…

Opportunity Specific Questions - see the total # of opportunities it applies to
UA - Application - See the total # of opportunities a 'opportunity specific question' applies to.
I have several questions that are only for need-based scholarships. On every one of these questions I have to check my 40-50 opportunities. It would be very helpful to see the total number that are checked to help me be sure I have them all.

Third party email bounce notifications
Someone else suggested, but the idea was archived, so want to reiterate that we also would strongly appreciate a notice being sent to applicants if a third party email address bounces. We were again spending a lot of staff hours identifying bounced third party emails one by one, and notifying applicants. Unfortunately, this made for a very tight turnaround in some cases.

date based third party reminder
Someone else requested it, but it was archived, so I would like to bring back into consideration third party reminders based on a due date (the application due date, if not a separate third party due date), instead of the date when the third party response was requested. Our application process opens several months before the application due date, and some requests are made right away. Not only will those recommenders forget by the actual due date, but it has historically seriously annoyed our recommenders to receive a reminder before the actual due date. We love having an automatic reminder,…

Autopopulate Emails Addresses
It would be great if emails sent from Foundant would autopopulate as you typed the email addresses from the Users stored in Foundant

Hide "add to cart" button in grant catalog grants
With grant catalogs, we're able to hide the donate button until we're ready to let donors contribute; however, we are not able to hide the "add to cart" button for each individual grant when someone clicks directly into that grant from the grant catalog. For our Match Days, some organizations like to have the unique URL for their specific grant catalog item to promote which bypasses the top level grant catalog. This is where we cannot suppress until "Match Day" starts.

Download Folders as one Document from Shared documents
Currently we have our Board Books stored in the shared documents tab of Foundant. Each Board Book folder has multiple sub files. Each subfile can be downloaded, but it would be nice to be able to download the entire folder which would include all the files.

Could AI verify transcripts?
A requirement for our scholarship application is that the student must upload an academic transcript. I am currently having to open over 140 applications, then open the document in the transcript section of the application to verify it is actually a transcript. Could AI be developed to open and interpret the document to confirm it is a transcript? It would be a huge time-saver for staff.

Allow Multiple Files to be Uploaded to a Single File Upload Question
Please allow for the ability to upload multiple files to a single upload question.
Currently, it is only possible to upload one file per question. It would be very helpful and much more effective if the File Upload question type allowed for multiple files to be uploaded to a single upload question, as opposed to needing one file upload question for each upload.
Alternatively, the option to upload a folder to a file upload question would be another possible remedy.

Automatic email triggered by question in application
I'd like to see an automatic email be sent based on a question answered on the application. For example, "Would you like information on the other financial aid assistance we offer?" And if they click "Yes" then an email with more information is sent.

deferral
Add to the Follow Up workflow a Deferral bucket.
We allow most recipients to defer their award for up to one year. It would be great to have this on the dashboard as a workflow option. Of course adding a third function at the bottom of a Submitted Follow-up - "follow-up deffered"

Evaluation "side by side" lock
It would be helpful if Evaluators could "lock" the dotted line that allows them to split the screen between the Application & Evaluation. Having to reset it with each of over 200 applications is both a pain and adds up to a lot of time.

Allow more than 2 Evaluations for a process
Allow for more than 2 Evaluations for a process. We have different groups of reviewers that would evaluate the same applications against a different set of criteria.

Internal Notification on Award Approval or Installment Creation
It would be great to be able to set up an email alert to internal staff when an application is approved or when an installment is coming due. If you have one off grants that aren't part of a cycle, it's otherwise very manual to let our finance team know it's time to process payment.

Scheduling Visits in Application
I work with three volunteer-led initiatives where grant applicants must schedule a conversation after submitting their application, but before grant decisions. We used to Jotform and embedded Calendly as an application question, which cut down on the administrative burden of follow-up emails to ensure applicants booked their meeting.
Currently, we have a checkbox that applicants check to confirm their understanding that their application is complete once they schedule the conversation. In the application received/submitted email, we provide them with the link to schedule. We ended up having to do a lot of follow-up. We're considering embedding a scheduling link directly…

country
Right now, your Country Code field shows a full country, but then EXPORTS it as a two letter abbreviation. This makes it functionally useless for any reporting because we need to know what country something is in and not the two letter abbreviation which I fail to understand the usefulness of.

Tutorial Pages without Links to Entire Platform Knowledge-base
I would love to see the tutorials for applicants, evaluators, and third-parties hosted on pages that don't link to the entire knowledge-base of the GLM and SLM platforms. I would love to link these pages on each of the dashboards for these roles, but I am currently hesitant because those users could click on links of topics that are not related to what they need to do in the system, which could lead to confusion.

Branching logic rule groups
I use branching logic all the time. Creating groups is not logical. Creating branching logic on the question would be nice without creating a group.

Sharing Questions for the Nested Lists
I don't see this idea listed the way that I'm gong to explain it. I would like to use "Nested Lists" but I don't because I cannot share those lists on decisions, follow-ups, etc. It is a wonderful function but useless when I have to go back to the application to see what the responses to the nested questions. I believe that sharing nested lists throughout the workflow would be a great feature to access.
