Adding Additional Contacts
Perhaps I'm missing something, but I would like to be able to add additional contacts to a request, without assigning them a password to log in. We use the cc/bc option a lot in our letters and the only way I can see to add these additional contacts requires me creating them, which them prompts the assignment of a password and them subsequently receiving an email about their account creation. Can there be a way to just add additional contacts that we can choose to merge with documents when we create them?

Merge Document for Multiple Processes
Because our applications differ by grant type, we have set our processes up by foundation and then by grant type. So for one foundation, we may have five or six different processes. The Board will review all foundation requests at the same time. It would be nice to be able to run a merge document for multiple requests across multiple processes. This would save us a tremendous amount of time when generating award/declination letters.

Cover Sheet for Follow Up Packet
On the cover sheet of the printed "Follow Up Packet," it would be nice if the system were to display the contact information of the person to whom the Follow Up was assigned and not have it default to the applicant's contact information.

batch draft
In the Application Evaluations Closed list, the batch denial pop up (that has decision date and comments) should have a button/option for saving draft denials.

Third request
Would like to have the installment payments not automatically divided in equal parts. Awkward to have to then go back and edit installments.

Search for keywords
It would be so very helpful if there could be a Google Search-like function across all applications. (Or, all "awarded" grants, all "denied" grants, etc.) For example, I might like to know if we've awarded any applications dealing with the opioid crisis. Ideally, I could search the word "opioid," and any application containing that word would show up.

changing fields reports
Perhaps I am using reports incorrectly, but whenever I need to edit the fields included in a report, it wipes out all the settings for aggregation, sorting, paginating, charts, etc. Is there a way to keep those settings while Choosing Fields? Thanks!

Administrator Comments vs Applicant Viewing Administrator comments
In the past few months, I've seen a high increase in applicants emailing and calling saying they cannot find the "Administrator Comment" when I revert back to draft, so I logged back in as the applicant to see what the sudden confusion is - it's incredibly hard to find in the applicant view! When I MAKE an administrator comment, there is a blue highlighted strip across the top. When I log in as the applicant, there is just a little vertical bar, with text smaller than regular instructions. A lot of our applicants are elderly, and it's been very time…

Reordering archived processes
I want to be able to organize archived processes like I can available, active processes. We have so many different processes that are copied over from year to year that the list gets very long and it'd be nice to organize it by process rather than whatever random order in which the process gets archived.

More than one "after Due Date" follow-up
It would be helpful to have the option to add another "after Due Date" automatic email to Follow-ups. Right now only "To Assignee 7 days after Due Date" is available and we'd like a "To Assignee 14 days after Due Date" as well.

Add titles to reports
It would be great if there was a way to give a report a title, so it is print-ready. Currently, I export it as a pdf and then add the title there. Without Adobe Acrobat Pro, I wouldn't be able to do that, so I would think this is a challenge for those who don't have it.

Administrator Dashboard Follow Ups Workload, Split Assigned and Draft Tab
We have five forms in our followup stage. We average about 200 applicants every year. When an applicant reaches the Follow Ups stage they are automatically assigned the five forms. This could potentially show as 1000 "Assigned/Draft" as a workload.
We see the organization five times on the list, once for each form, but cannot tell if they have started the form or not.
We would like to see the tab split into "Assigned" and "Draft" workload tabs. This would be very helpful to quickly see who has started what forms forms and who has not.

Invalidating data in a field
Prevent invalid data in a field with a stop alert. It would be great if you could invalidate an applicant's improper entry in a field. For instance, if a certain org. budget size is an eligibility criterion, It'd be great if non-confirming entries got a "stop" message to refer back to instructions, guidelines, contact staff with questions, etc. So if an award cycle is intended for orgs. with budgets less than say $200K, it would offer an alert or error message to the applicant for any figure above that amount.

Printing out emails
It would be very helpful if I could print out sent emails from the GMS. My workaround is to copy myself on my email templates but I'd like the ability to go and print out any sent emails, as needed.

Staff Evaluators email
We have evaluators that email our applicants outside of Foundant and then copy and paste it into their evaluation. It would be useful if we had the ability to be able to choose if we would like the staff evaluator to have the ability to email through Foundant.

Client GLM Suggestions
"You guys are awesome, and the changes have mostly been positive. However,
there are a few items that changed away from better, so I just wanted to
provide some feedback about the latest release...Before, when reviewing an application, we could just scroll down. Now, we
have to click an extra time within the inner scroll bar to move the
screen. This is a time waster.[image: Inline image 2]
Also, when on the request summary page, there is now no indication of the
organization on the initial view. Perhaps adding the organization name
under the project name could solve…6 votes -
Add a link to Organization Summary from Request Summary
Since the contact information was moved to a tab, when you click into the request you are defaulted to the "request" tab, and have to click to the "contact" tab in order to get back to the organization summary (or tell what organization you are looking at). I am generally back and forth to different things and it is frustrating to not be able to look at the request summary screen and a) know what organization I am looking at a request for without clicking the "contact" tab and b) be able to navigate back to the Organization summary without…

Copy Process without attached follow-ups
When we copy a process we would like the option of whether or not to attach the follow-ups that are a part of the process. Our grants are 2 to 3 years long and the follow-ups will never be utilized in the same format. Current format creates a lot of extra work to delete all the follow-ups.

Preview mode warning
When applicants are in preview mode, the warning by each question when they enter data should make clear that it will not be saved. Some applicants do not understand that Preview mode does not link to actual application fields.

Request ID Visible
We often have project names that are the same or very similar making it really hard for our Finance department to know if they are making a payment on the right grant or staff to know if we are closing the correct one. We are familiar with the request ID being something we can pull on reports and then hoover over the bottom of the screen to verify that we're in the correct grant when performing of these tasks, but it would be extremely helpful if that request ID could be visible maybe somewhere on the Award Details tab or…
