  1. Under the View Organization History system setting, it would be helpful to have an option of "Organization-by-Organization". Right now there are three options 1)All, 2)None, 3) User-by-user. It would be helpful to have it an option for Organization-by-Organization for those orgs who have the same EIN# but separate local chapters (or schools, in the case of a school district). For these type of applicants, we only want them to see their own chapter's information; but for all the rest of our nonprofit applicants, with the high turnover of NPO staff, it's helpful for them to see their entire organizational history.

  2. It would be extremely helpful if we could indicate that a grant is an annually recurring opportunity, so that it would automatically be created each year, rather than having to do so manually.

  3. In GLM, it takes a LONG time to navigate to a specific request. Summary of that process: home screen > search > organizations > type org name > wait for results to load > comb through all results > click on correct org name > requests > comb through all requests > click on correct request name > finished. That's a TON of steps.

    It'd be very helpful if we could export the unique URL of all requests. I'm thinking it could be a report field? this would enable us to set up an offline spreadsheet containing direct links to…

  4. Currently only questions that exist on the Eligibility, LOI, and Application forms within a process can be added as a Shared Question to the Evaluation, Decision, and Follow Up forms. We would like the ability to add a Shared Question to ANY form within a given process no matter what form it was originally added to.

    For example, if we add a "Reasons for Decline" field to an Evaluation form, we'd like to be able to pull that same field in as a Shared Question to a Decisions form.

  5. Please move the button up to the top. I have multiple processes so when I copy to a new one, the button to mark draft or submitted is often off the page and out of view so I miss it. Then I copy again and have 3 applications in the system and have to delete two of them while making sure I am deleting the correct ones. This is a simple fix.

  6. When viewing merge documents in the Documents tab of a request, I'd like to be able to view the document (like the Document Viewer in applications and follow up forms) rather than having to download it.

  7. It would be great to set up an automated email sequence for applicants that was timed around incomplete draft applications. For example, one week after an application is started, an automated template email is sent with a "thank you for starting an application, if you have questions or need help please reach out to....don't forget the application deadline is X"....and similar. I try and send reminders to our in-progress draft applicants regularly; having an automated sequence would be really great--similar to what you see in email marketing packages.

  8. Ability to individually close an Evaluation stage, when you are using both Evaluation stages. For example, Evaluation 1 is to be completed, and "locked down" so the Evaluator cannot change their answers when they are completing Evaluation 2. This impacts the "integrity" of the review.

  9. Would it be possible to add a drop down for students wheen filling out personal information. ie Mr., Ms. and that when a student types street or St. it would auto change to Street? this would save us so much time in making corrections.

  11. To effectively use Tables as a shared question in a Follow Up (as stated in documentation, very helpful for Budget and ongoing grantee progress statements) - being limited to only 5 columns does not allow for multi-year grants especially

  12. It would be so useful to be able to incorporate logic into email templates. If I could have one sentence if a certain condition is true, and another if it's not, would save me from having to create (and maintain!) a multitude of templates.

  14. It would be excellent if the Contact Email History messages could be exported. I often copy and paste them into word documents to be able to send them to contacts with questions about their award histories.

  15. We have had several evaluators ask for there to be a way to see the amount of money they have recommended be allocated in total as they are going through all of the applications they have been assigned. As we give them a budget for each process, this would be helpful in seeing how close they are getting to that budget.

  16. I inadvertently Closed our scholarship recipients when I went through the old applications in order to update contact info. They have to be kept in approved to pull up by group; Closed applications can only be accessed one by one. The Close Request button is on the bottom right where it's common to find a button to leave a form/web page or an X on the upper right. Foundant has neither for users. You have to go to the Home icon, Requests & Users option, or the back arrow. It's not good user layout. Move the Close Request to the…

  17. When evaluators are assigned applications as a batch action, it would be really helpful if an automatic email could go out to each evaluator letting them know they have been assigned applications for a particular process (one email per process, not per application). Currently, the only way evaluators can receive an automatic email is if each application is assigned one by one. That's time-consuming for the person assigning the evaluators, and that would generate a lot of individual emails to each evaluator. Having automatic emails go out to evaluators after batch assignments are made would eliminate the current two-step process…

  18. We have had instances where we are reaching out to 3rd party requests (specifically with LOR) and they refuse to submit a letter on the student's behalf. Would it be possible or beneficial for there to be a decline option in the automated email so the student can find someone else? And yes, we do include strong language to encourage students to talk with teachers/counselors they would like to have submit a letter of recommendation on their behalf.

  19. We are currently use processes for each scholarship we hold at our Foundation. We have a scholarship advisory committee for each scholarship. We have some people who serve on multiple scholarship committees, so they do end up evaluating the same applicant for multiple scholarships. We are recommending that evaluators have the ability to copy previous scores/comments from one evaluation to another for the same applicant. For example, if they are evaluating on their GPA and academic performance, that won't change from application to application. They are requesting to copy the scores and comments as a previous answer to another evaluation…

  20. 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.
