Make the email templates list more readable
We have a number of GLM email templates and sometimes it is quite confusing to choose the correct one, especially if sending out numerous emails. There are two ways that possibly it would be easier to distinguish among the numerous templates. One being, being able to assign templates to folders, so the list is smaller. Secondly, to make the background colour of each of the shaded templates darker or a different colour, so when scrolled over it is more apparent what is being chosen.

Organization closed or is not longer in business
There should be a way to indicate an organization is no longer in business. Especially when dealing with multiyear awards.
organization may go out of business and when the multiyear award is due it appears on the report.11 votes -
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.

Email to Grants Manager when follow-up is complete
We have matching grants as part of a Foundant process, and we send the match payment after we receive the final report Follow-up. It would be nice to have the system automatically generate a notification to our grants manager when the Program Officers have marked the follow-up as complete.

allow scholarship recipients to be "alternates" in addition to either awarded or denied
We always select an "alternate" for each scholarship and each year end up awarding an alternate or two because the original recipient changes their plans or no longer meets the scholarship criteria (changes schools, majors, etc.). Being an alternate is different than a straight out denial. There should be a way to transfer the payment (or remaining payments) from one awardee to the alternate as there is in Community Suite.

evaluation score -
this would be so Cool... the system already calculated that average evaluation score. Could this be a field that is generated so we can use it in reports so that we don't need to create "this fun formula" : thanks :)

Denial Date
Hello! We recently moved a number of applications into "Denial Draft" and then, a few weeks later, into "Deny." It appears Foundant records their denial dates as the dates they were moved into "Denial Draft." Would it be possible to change that so that denial dates are the dates they are formally and finally denied? It would more accurately reflect our decision-making process.Thanks!Bob Hybben

outlook intregration
Given the way technology has grown over the years, is there a way to integrate Outlook email with Foundant email so that when an email is received, it will automatically show up in Outlook, and when we respond to an email, it will show up in the appropriate applicant file in Foundant?

Nonprofit Directory Visual Experience
Currently, when viewing listings in the Nonprofit Directory by category, there is a large blank space on the left hand side of each listing where it appears the uploaded logo of the organization should go (see attached image).
I have been told by Foundant that this is not a bug, so they will not fix it as such. Visually, it is very out of place and looks clearly designed for the organization logo especially given that this space is occupied by logos for fund listings.
I would like to suggest that this space be utilized for the organization logo in…

Sending Follow-Ups to Multiple contacts at an organization
Often with our grantees, we typically have multiple people working in tandem on different aspects of the report. While they are set up as collaborators, only one person is getting the reminder when upcoming reports are due. We would like to ensure that folks from departments such as the finance or program teams are all receiving the same advanced notice!

Follow Up Reports available with past applications under Organization History tab
It would be great if follow up reports showed up along with the past applications under the Organization History tab so all the members of an organization could see this important part of an application. With the high rates of turn over at a lot of these organizations having the follow report tied to the person who submitted the report is very limiting.

Abandon Option for Follow Ups
I would like to suggest an 'Abandoned' option for Follow-Ups, similar to that for Draft Applications. This way, incomplete overdue reports do not remain on the dashboard indefinitely. This would help with decluttering the dashboard, while also accurately marking the follow-up. As I understand, the only other option (apart from extending the deadline) would be to delete it, however we would want to keep them for record purposes. In the event that a grantee is able to fill out the report, we would then revert it back to Follow-Up Draft.

Manager Evaluations
Currently, once a manager evaluation has been assigned, if the manager reviews it and then realizes it should be reassigned to another manager, if he saves it (even without answering any questions), it locks the evaluation and it cannot be reassigned. This is an issue and has not always been this way. I would like to recommend this be changed so if needing to reassign an evaluation, it can be done without issue by the administrator, even if it has been saved. This has been a very big issue for us during our current grant process and I'd like to…

Request History as an Internal Form Field
The request history table in the print packet is so helpful. Board members and evaluators really like to have a quick snapshot of this information.
It would be great if we could
1) pull this table into application or evaluation form as an internal field or
2) create a field with the option to make request history pop out as an external window
or any solution that offers a simple way to have eyes on request history to those folks who spend little time in the database and don't feel comfortable with extra clicksThank you!

Sync grantees change of address in GLM to CSuite as primary/pay/mailing
Either sync grantees change of address in GLM to CSuite as primary/pay/mailing so we are not mailing grant checks to old addresses, OR, have an alert for when grantees change their addresses in GLM.

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…

Merge Templates and Print Packets
Right now, Foundant does not allow you to create and format a Merge Template that you can then use as the Print Packet associated with each form. The editing capabilities for the Print Packets are extremely limited and there is certainly room for formatting and content improvements. It would be very helpful if admins were able to create and format a Merge Template in a way that is most supportive for their team and evaluators and use that as the Print Packet.

Numeric Grant Numbers
Can Foundant add numeric grant numbers that auto-counts grants in a process?
For example, we support research projects and grantees need to acknowledge it in the research paper with something to the effect of "We acknowledge financial support from "Foundation Name" under grant # ("Foundation Acronym"-***) at the end of the paper. The grant number allows for tracking where we would enter in the grant number in something like Google Scholar and see how many papers have been published through it.
Right now, there are no unique identifiers for Grants to track externally.
