New Header Search Bar
The new header search bar is currently only available to Administrators and not the Grants Manager role. We would like to see it available to both rolls as it's almost more critical/useful for the Grants Manager roll than the top Admins.
Additionally, my testing of the search bar has shown it to be inconsistent so far. Once I type a word into the search bar, often times nothing happens. I have gotten it to work, but it's been hit or miss. It might be helpful to have the magnifier icon clickable so that we can manually click it or hit…
4 votesHi All,
We wanted to let you know that over the weekend, we made performance enhancements to the header search. You should now be seeing better search speeds. If not, please reach out to our support team.

AI
I would love an option to batch generate AI Summaries from the dashboard in SLM. We have hundreds of applicants that create thousands of applications, this would be a great asset so we do not have to open each application to select this. Great time saver.
2 votesHi, Would love more feedback, would be helpful to batch run or just have these auto-created on submit?

Dual-Screen Process Manager
I want to be able to edit two processes side by side without having to go back and forth.
3 votesHi Steve,
Please tell me more about this need. I assume it is because you are making similar edits to both forms at the same time. Is that correct?

new layout mobile
New layout of website does not work well on mobile devices - especially iPhone. I used to be able to look up a grantee and get quick information (last grant, details, amount paid, etc) - now I can't even see the landing page to navigate to a specific grantee. And if I get to their grant history, I can't see the grants listed.

13 votesHi Everyone!
Thank you for the initial feedback.
With our August Monthly Release, we just made this viewable in your live environment. Based on your sandbox feedbac,k we have made a couple of updates:
-Sort order of cards: primary contact in top right and then alpha A-Z, comments, and documents showing newest to oldest left to right.
-Table vs Card view on contacts, documents, and comments, you can change the view to either card or table view.
Foundation Status:
There is a full charity check to view all information. We are continuing to update this view and will highlight the organization more prominently in the coming releases.

Option to Disable Question List Button for Branching Processes
We use branching questions in our grant application that are set to internal so we can branch an applicant to the application we want them to complete and not have multiple processes in our site. I just realized that when an applicant clicks on the "Question List" button in their site, this shows them ALL of the questions in our application, regardless of how the application should be branched. The fact that applicants can see the entire question list for an application seems to negate the purpose of branching. This is very confusing for applicants because they do not know…
5 votesHello,
You are correct in that all branch groups are displayed in the question list; we follow this as best practice for projects like project streamlining so that applicants don't become surprised by the amount of time the application will take them. We also encourage as a best practice that you add instructions to the branch groups for that visibility and communication explain when they will see that group.
However, Internal Questions should not be displayed to applicants. Please report this to our support team so that we can review it.

Searching for a former name of an orgnization - not DBA
Here is a common scenario. An org is fiscally sponsored by a church and then gets their own 501c3 status and changes their name. In foundant, we would update the org name to say (formerly XYZ Church). When evaluators see the church name - they often ask whether services are limited to members of that church even when the org has nothing to do with the church (e.g., a food bank). To remove any confusion for evaluators - I tried adding the church name to the Sort Name, but when I tried to do a search for the church -…

GLM: Block new application if grant report isn't complete
Block new application from applicant who hasn't completed a grant report on a previous grant award. This would encourage applicants to complete their grant report and provide another level of due diligence built into GLM

Would you hope this is implemented across all processes?

preferred gender pronouns
It would be really helpful to ask all system users/contacts for their preferred gender pronouns (e.g. she/her/hers, he/him/his, they/them/their, and so on). In this day and age, it's important to people to be correctly addressed.
10 votesHello,
This can be added to the user form today. One piece we have heard is that this should be more visible in other areas of the software, if you could please call out where you would expect to see this information

Batch Create Merge letters from Approval Buckets
For our GLM Processes, we typically create all of our Merge Grant Letters once the applications are moved into the Approval Buckets. Once these are in the approval buckets and we go to create the letters we have to go into each application one by one > create word docs > export > update > save etc... It would be awesome if we could batch create our letters by selecting the checkboxes on the approval bucket page and export 1 word doc with each letter having it's own page on that doc. This would allow us to create, export and…

Allow evaluators to track the amount of money they have spent as they are going through applications
We have had several evaluators ask for there to be a way to see the amount of money they have recommended be allocated in total as they are going through all of the applications they have been assigned. As we give them a budget for each process, this would be helpful in seeing how close they are getting to that budget.

Branching logic in printable form for admins.
Building forms with many branching questions groups can get confusing. It would be nice, as an admin, to be able to see how each question group is branched within a form without having to click on each one.

Submit Button that can be greyed out with "wrong answers" to questions
It would be nice on forms, if the Submit button can be greyed out if a specific answer to a question is selected. Or if we could select rules for the submit button much like branching questions.

What sort of rules would like to see related to the submit button?

copy request
Could we make the "This request was created as a copy by..." message more prominent? It would help if it jumped out at us so that we can do the required cleanup after a request has been copied.
2 votesCan you please share the message you are referring to.
Also, it would be helpful to understand the clean up need because that might give us the idea for other opportunities to make the tool easier to use.

Evaluator view grid
I heard from an Evaluator who was frustrated with the view of a grid/table on his evaluator view. As he was working in the side-by-side (evaluator/application) view, he coudln't see any of the content of the (in this case) Student Activities grid. There was content in boxes that he wanted to see but the dropdown carrot took up most of the space and he couldn't read the student replies.
Getting rid of the carrots would probably help but just in general, some way to better view the contents of a grid format answer would be wonderful.

SLM: customize Evaluator dashboard view by Process
We have a scholarship with a 2-step evaluation process. It would be great if we could customize the dashboard view of Evaluators to show not just the score, but Evaluator responses to one of the custom questions. Our committee is sophisticated enough that they are comfortable changing the sort order on the available columns, and adding an additional column to show an additional assessment question would provide them with more flexibility.
