  1. 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.

  2. It would be great if text boxes wrapped in the application like the tables do now.

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  6. 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.

  7. We have a question used in several processes. I propose a question maintained in the process manager than can be added to multiple processes. We would have one location to maintain the response options for simplicity/authority. It would also streamline reporting metrics with uniform answers for comparison.

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

  9. 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.…

  10. I see a number of ideas previously posted in the IdeaLab back to 2015 that ask for this, but all seem to have been closed out. It would be great in the Payment Tracking tab to be able to search and sort by the date the payment is actually made, rather than the installment due date. If we have a payment due January 1 and then pay it in December, for example, it's quite a process to do reconciling later because the due date and payment date are in different years. I know we can find this field when exporting…

  11. We would love the ability to display ranking options in text to our evaluators, such as
    Extremely Clear
    Very Clear
    Somewhat Clear
    Not So Clear
    Not at All Clear

    BUT - We'd like to store them as numeric data so that
    Extremely Clear =5
    Very Clear =4
    Somewhat Clear =3
    Not So Clear =2
    Not at All Clear =1

    To be clear, we don't want to show the numeric to the evaluator, just the text.
    Currently, we use a complicated formula to calculate the data.

  12. Can we add automated emails to the make payment form, so that our grant managers can submit payment requests to our accts payable folks without having to make up really crazy workflows>

  13. 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.

  14. 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.

  15. 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?

  16. 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.

  19. Students can apply for multiple scholarship opportunities with our UA. If an evaluator saves an evaluation and clicks "next pending," the system takes them to the first scholarship opportunity the student applied for, which isn't the opportunity the evaluator was trying to read. This makes the "next pending" button basically useless. We would like a way to adjust this feature to stay within the same process.

  20. Nonprofits often run under a DBA or have a common name they use that does not always match their 501 c 3 IRS Designation name. If there was a field in the GLM profile that allowed for a legal name and common name, syncing that over to C-Suite, which already has a legal name field, would be IMMENSELY helpful.
