  2. Form Completion Indicator. It would be nice if the completions indicator could be configured based only on the questions that are actually applicable or mandatory. Right now it seems the indicator counts every single questions in the form, regardless of whether they are mandatory or not or if they are just displaying a question which can be misleading to the applicant who is applying

  3. We have a Program Officer who is leaving the foundation. She has over 150 follow ups assigned to her. Reassigning to the new Program Officer is going to require that we reassign each one individually. It would be great to have the ability to batch reassign.

  4. Please add a "Tabled" line in the Application Evaluation section. So much easier to keep track of tabled applications throughout the year if they need to be revisited in a subsequent grant round within the same process.

  5. It would be nice to view the application numbers for each grant. I often times have to go into the applications during any part of the process even after closing the application. It would be nice to see the application number so I could avoid clicking into several of the same grant name to find the correct application. Please do not remove the other tabs just add this option or allow it to be editable.

  6. Currently if a user is inactive they are required to have an email address. This is not useful when the new user in their role uses the previous employees email address. ie) ceo@testcompany.ca

    If the new user uses the previous employees email then you are required to come up with a dummy address for the inactive employee. This is not ideal.

    Inactive employees should NOT require an email.

  8. We would love to have a Document Viewer function for the Documents tab, as well as for all documents connected to a given request. Having to download a document just to see it every time is hugely inconvenient, as is having to go through several forms to look for a given document. More Document Viewer functionality would save a lot of time.

  9. When merging organizations, it would be nice to be able to see the information on the organizations selected without having to open up one to see its information and then having to go back to "Search - Organizations - Duplicate Search" to see the information on another one selected. When I try to use the back button it doesn't work. Perhaps I am doing something wrong.

  10. Please add a toggle that admin can switch to Stop applicants from applying for the same process twice. This feels like it should be the default anyway. We had over 400 hundred applications this last round. Duplicates cause huge issues with some getting approved and awarded $ twice. A Warning Message isn't enough; if they can still click that Apply button, they will...

  12. It would be very helpful if collaborators or others in an organization could see any administrator comments made within an LOI or application. Currently, only the applicant can see the comments. If the applicant is asking for help from a collaborator, it is necessary that the collaborator see our comments.

  13. The current methods of collecting and delivering specific thank-you notes to donors from students are often difficult. We'd like to see a system where a dedicated thank you note form can be configured and assigned to the student per opportunity and as needed and attached to the request, eliminating the need to use follow up forms. The choice between having fewer common follow ups (general thank you) and a large number of opportunity-specific follow ups (to get a specific follow up) is not a great one. A dedicated way of exporting these or emailing a donor directly would also be…

  14. Is there a way to change the default for all new processes created to not have ANY users assigned to the process?

    Currently, the default is that ALL users are selected. It’s one of those things if we don’t catch when creating new processes, grant managers for other processes get confused as they see applications they should not.

    I did get a reply from Tessa Williamson at Foundant that stated:
    I do want to thank you for your previous IdeaLab post in 2021 to gain some traction on a functionality similar to this. Though the team has implemented when grant…

  15. It would be useful to have the inability to use custom merge fields in an email template.

    Some background on our proposed use this feature and the need it addresses:

    Our foundation was attempting to create an email template which can serve as a digital copy of the scholarship award letter we send to recipients. However, we are unable to create a "master" email template that would serve across all opportunities because there is no way to pull in a description of the scholarship each recipient has won.

    It would be nice to be able to utilize custom fields from…

  16. We are looking for a way to document in Foundant which organizations have been impacted by the uncertainty/withdrawal of federal funds and the extent to which they have indicated to us that they have been impacted.
    Organization comments on the "Organization Summary" page seem to be an appropriate place to document the information, but there doesn't seem to be a way to pull these comments into reports.
    Would it be possible to add this data field to the reporting dataset for the organization?

  17. Since the DocuSign pdf is attached to each record is there a report that has which grantees has submitted their DocuSign doc and which ones are still missing would be great. I currently do this manually and it take a lot of time.

  19. Suggestion: When working on updating email templates, it would be very helpful to have an arrow button for “Next” and “Back” to easily navigate the email templates.
    Current Process: Now, the process requires that you go back to the email template section, pick the next template from the list, wait for it to open, make changes, save, go back to the email template listings page and then repeat that for every template. I noticed that you already have an arrow that forwards you to the next form in other stages within the dashboard, but not in the email templates section.…

  20. When extending the due date for a process, the LOIs that were already in draft status didn't update to the new due date. This caused confusion for the applicant when trying to submit the LOI. The solution was for our team to go into each draft individually and change the due date for drafts created before the process extension. (Drafts created after the extension showed the new due date.)
