Manual grant entry from dashboard
Allow admins to add manual grants directly from the dashboard with a single click. Currently, manual entry requires searching for an organization, opening the record, and then selecting “add,” which is inefficient when entering multiple grants.
A dashboard‑level “Add Grant” action would significantly reduce clicks, save time, and streamline workflows for users who regularly enter grants across multiple organizations. TCF8 votes -
Thank-You Email to Evaluators
I would love to have a way to trigger a thank-you email to evaluators who have finished submitting their evaluations.

share instruction
Allow Instruction Question type to be shared. We use this to provide external links to guidance documents at the top of each form. It would be VERY HELPFUL to be able to update the link once, rather than in every form.

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!

Evaluators able to view follow-ups
Would like to be able to have evaluators review/access last year's follow-up reports for a process. Right now we download them all and put them in a drobox for review.

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.

Show Decision Status
Show Decision Status: current setting applies to entire site (available under site settings). Moving this setting to the Process Manager and allowing it to be set individually on each process would open up more flexibility to accommodate different foundation's workflows.
Example: two grant programs are open at the same time. one is a rolling basis application process with fast turn around. the other is a quarterly LOI process involving board meetings. the ideal use of "show decision status" for these two programs would be vastly differently; yet the software is forcing one setting for all.

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.

Adobe Sign Integration
Would it be possible to also get Adobe Sign integration alongside DocuSign? We use Adobe for everything, but also created a DocuSign paid account so we can have the integration for our grant agreements in Foundant's GLM. It would be great if Adobe was also incorporated so we wouldn't need both.

Downloads should have unique names
Every download has the same name. It is confusing when you're downloading many different applications/evals/etc for internal archiving. The downloaded file needs the process name and the applicant name and year when I download. I just end up with ApplicationPacket (1), ApplicationPacket (2), etc., I have to rename every single file one by one so I don't lose track of which is which.

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.…

Follow-up Due Dates Shareable in Other Follow-ups
It would be great to allow Follow-up Due Dates to be shared within Decision forms or future follow-ups. For example, within our Decision process and within our Grant Agreements (follow 1), we mention that grantees will need to complete a Final Report (follow-up 2). We would like to auto-populate the Due Date of the follow-up 2 in both the Decision process and the Grant Agreement so that grantees can sign-off that they acknowledge and commit to the final report. Being able to auto-populate this field based on system due-dates would allow for efficiency as well as minimize human error. This…

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.

3. copy and paste the codes into the template in Word
4. upload the template
5. go to Requests and Decisions and search for the appropriate requests and decisions, and
