Evaluation Reports
We conduct two rounds of evaluations on every grant application. After the first round we provide the results to the second group of people evaluating. Finally, at our board meeting we provide the results from both rounds of evaluations.
We currently provide these to our evaluators through a fairly complicated merge document that we process after each evaluation. We were hoping that you all could create a report for all evaluations done, as well as a nicely laid out print packet of whichever evaluations were needed.
Additionally, we have our second round evaluators check a yes, no or maybe box…

Historical Emails should reference attachments.
I recently went into an organization's email history to look at an award notification, the original of which included an attachment, but the historical copy made no reference to an attachment. It would be helpful if historical emails referenced document(s) that may have been attached.

Primary Contact Descriptor
Could there be a small pop-up when your cursor goes over this field that explains how the primary contact works?
Our applicants often think "primary contact" indicates who will receive communications about their application. They frequently email saying they kept trying to change the primary contact and were unsuccessful.
We would like applicants to know that
1) the primary contact is the executive director/officer
2) site administrators control who is the primary contact
3) all communications are sent to the user that submitted an applicationThanks for your suggestions on how best to make this information clear to applicants!

Add Multiple Users to a Request
If multiple users in the system are involved with a request, allow for the request be cross-listed under both/all user accounts. Similarly to collaboration, users will be able to work together on an application, but the request will then appear in both/all users' request histories.

Custom Logon Page Message
Hello - I am finding myself a little frustrated this time around when attempting to update my logon page message (for both SLM and GLM portal login pages). Even if I format outside of the page and copy to paste it in as I'd like it to display, it is now pulling everything left and not holding the formatting.
My bigger ask to help solve this is can we have better rich text tools in the editing of the Logon Page Message under settings in both SLM and GLM? I'd like the ability to first and foremost choose the alignment…

Contact Information for Organization and Individual Profile
Applicant Contact Information
I am aware that applicants can update or edit their profiles. It would be wonderful if there were a mechanism that would prompt the applicant to review it for any necessary updates and to also review all contacts listed in the organization summary.

Scoring Questions - Optional or Weighted
I was wondering if anyone would find value in the ability to weight evaluation questions. We are exploring the idea of funding general operating requests and project-based requests, all from one process. If we were able to weight questions or make some scoring questions optional, this would prevent and help us with our evaluation of LOIs and Applications.

Evaluation Form Due Dates
In GLM/SLM it would be great to add due dates for evaluation forms. Automated emails could then be attached and reminders to complete evaluations could be automated.
As a small staff, I have to remember to do this, along with all the other things we are doing. While I do keep in close contact with our committees, it would be lovely for this system (where we have invested a significant amount of $$) to take on some of the burden, instead of leaving it on our shoulders. ...work smarter, not harder...

Administrator comment
Please change the color of the Administrator Comment box!
When we provide comments for our applicants, they are constantly complaining that the box blends in with the rest of the white and off-white colors and words on the screen. It's true!
Please change the white box to a colored box or allow administrators to choose the color of the box or change the text color for administrator comments. This small change would improve the applicant experience.

integer
Change the symbol of the Integer question type away from a # to something else.
In our application we ask for percent of people served in our county. We built that question with the integer question type because that was the only question type where we could restrict the entry to two numerical digits.
But our applicants and reviewers are confused because we are asking for a percentage but the little symbol next to it is the number sign, so it almost looks like we are asking for the raw number of people, not the percent of people.

Date Question Type Formatting Options
I do see this was brought up in years past, but was hoping to renew interest in the topic. It would be great when using the Date question type to be able to select the format in which you would like that date provided. It would be great to be able to ask for a month and year, for example, especially when asking for degree conferral dates, where a specific day is often not known.

commas in budget table
I like the embedded tables for the most part but I really need commas in those integer cells and the sum total cell.

Ability to sort in the Documents folder
I see that someone else had suggested this but the idea was archived. In the documents folder, there is no way to reorder the documents. It puts them in order of the date they are uploaded. It gets a bit confusing when adding documents later into the process and they are out of sequence. The only way to rectify is to delete the documents and reupload them in the order desired. But then if something else is submitted that should be kept such as background information prior to the approval or denial of the request, they're out of sequence again.…

Streamlining Third Party Question Groups
Asking an applicant to compose an email to their anonymous third party is an extra step that overcomplicates things. The applicant has to deal with opening up an email interface, copy-pasting a pre-written message, etc. And for what? It's redundant to send the third party an email explaining that they'll be getting another email.
It should work like references on a resume. Provide us with the third party's email address, and we'll contact them ourselves. Simple as.

Change Check # to Payment # in Installments
Since COVID, most foundations have moved away from paper checks to ACH payments. It would be helpful to change the name of the field in Installments/Make a Payment from Check Number to Payment Number.

Metrics Dashboard Date Range
It would be great if you could customize the date range you see when looking at the metrics dashboard. For example, the decisions show the last 12 months, but I only want to see January 1 to today's date. I do not want December of 2022 bulked in that data.

Custom Columns in Search Requests & Decisions Screen
It would be great to customize which columns show on the Requests & Decisions search screen like it does on the workload pages.

Organization Merge History
From what I can tell, there is no way to indicate if a request is from an organization that was merged into another organization or if it was originally from the final organization. Currently, for applicant funding history (which we provide in a Merge Document) to our grant reviewers, we have to manually go through each request and figure out which was for Org A and which was for Org B. If our current staff ever leave, this knowledge will be lost or buried in the Comments tab. Is there a simple way to see this?

Organizational Summary - Amount Requested
It would be helpful if you could customize (at least one column) on the Organizational Summary page. For example, "Type" is not useful to us, but "Amount Requested" would be. Our Trustees often award more or less than the organization requested and it would be helpful to see this information.
