  1. When entering a new request, it would be extremely helpful if the "Process" dropdown list were sorted alphabetically. With up to 50 active processes at any given time, locating the correct one can be time-consuming. Alphabetical sorting would make the interface more user-friendly and improve efficiency for everyone.

    Thank you!

  2. I have noticed in multiple template field lists that the use of the Fund Public Name is not an available option. To not have the Public Name available for all templates that have the Fund Name option defeats the purpose of the Public Name. It would be nice if the Public name was the default name used on templates or at least an option on all templates.

  3. It would be really helpful for the organizer in me to be able to move around/re-arrange Follow Up Forms as well as Decisions. When creating new ones they go straight to the bottom, but if I could group them together in ways that would help my workflow that would be great!

  4. Custom Message/Yellow Card - In the New Dashboard, the yellow card/custom message card in the upper left corner needs to have the visibility adjusted so more of our custom message can be seen, similar to the other cards. Right now, it is cut in half with a large blank space that serves no purpose.

  5. It would be great to be able to set up an email alert to internal staff when an application is approved or when an installment is coming due. If you have one off grants that aren't part of a cycle, it's otherwise very manual to let our finance team know it's time to process payment.

  6. We would like to request that Upload Responses, such as transcripts, be added to the Submitted and Complete bucket Quick Grid Views. Often, we need to pull transcripts or other uploads quickly, and it's difficult to go into each student's application to search, view, and download transcripts. If the uploads appeared in the Quick Grid View, we would be able to view these uploads more efficiently.

  7. We believe the administrator comment function is valuable. Its impact could be even stronger if given the option to notify the applicant that a new administrator comment has been added to their application. This seems to work well for the Idea Lab!

  8. We use Evaluations in GLM for ED Approvals. We then have to save a copy of the ED Approval in a sharepoint file and in CSuite. It would be nice to have a bulk export option in the Evaluations bucket so we can export the ED Approvals all at once.

  9. Our site visit report is currently on the Eval 2 tab. It would be helpful to receive a notification when the site visit report is completed.

  10. We need side-by-side columns for our evaluators so that they can see how their individual application score compares to the group of evaluators' average score. Only the person in the admin role can see the average group score. And, if the admin is also an evaluator, things get messy quickly in a meeting. An admin/evaluator can never see both their individual score column and the average score column without flipping between roles. Having the ability to see individual scores and average scores on ONE PAGE in side-by-side columns will greatly help with our evaluation meetings and enable us to make…

  11. I had a partner organization reach out to ask if it was possible for their organization to receive email notification to multiple people from the system. From the sounds of it, in the GLM only the applicant of the request (or assignee of follow-ups) can receive the automatic emails generated from the system.

    If it would be possible to have an option to select multiple recipients for an email to be sent from the system that would be great!

  12. 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.

  13. When creating a merge document, it would be convenient to be able to choose the "documment type" at the top of the "create documents" box, rather than having to scroll to the bottom every time.

  14. 'Installment' should be a field option that can auto-populate in GLM - email templates. We fund multi-year grants and it would be helpful to include both the total amount awarded as well as the installment amount.

  15. Please make "Request History" a reportable field. For example, if I want to know who approved a crop of our requests, I have to go to each individual request and check the history. This is something we should be able to grab quickly.

  16. Now that the software provides options of creating merge documents in Word or PDF, it would be nice to be able to set one as default or if the software defaulted to the last type used. Scrolling down to choose one gets tedious if you are doing many documents and you can't necessarily do them as a batch.

  17. Currently, you can only add one signature in the Word template in Foundant. It would be helpful if you could have at least two signatures. One for us (our President) and one for the Letter of Agreement recipient to agree to the terms of the grant.

  18. A donor questioned how AI might impact scholarship and grant applications, something I hadn't considered. I wonder if there's been any discussion about building in some check to ensure AI hasn't written answers.

  19. It would be helpful to have different font options when creating or modifying email templates. We have noticed that when our templates are exported (or sent to applicants), the font type changes inconsistently. Some sections will be Ariel and others Segoe. It's hard to tell if the different fonts are present in GLM, but we would like the ability to highlight/ select all and then choose one font type.

  20. Need the system to generate a score for the application based on how questions on the application are answered. For example: a GPA between 3.8-4.0 would receive 10 pts, 3.6-3.79 would receive 8 pts, etc. This could be a % score.
