  1. I have noticed that when you export a report to Excel, all the numbers are stored as text. Although it can be done, it's a pain to have to convert them to numbers if you want to work with them as numbers in Excel. So, I suggest in a future release that all numbers in a Report export to Excel as numbers.

  2. I understand that there is a feature that allows follow ups to be submitted either sequentially or in any order. This is helpful if you want all follow ups to follow the same rules. However, we need most of our follow ups to be submitted sequentially, and then just a couple of them to be able to be submitted at any time.

    We have deadlines for each of our follow ups, but applicants are welcome to submit certain follow ups with a later deadline (i.e. match documentation) before the others (a final grant report, for example, which we do 3…

  3. The "applied (with check mark)" is confusing our grantees. Grantees can make multiple applications to the same process. They have no idea that "Applied" means they have the correct application submitted. Can you change "Applied" to "Apply". The following page warns them of duplicates anyway. Why confuse things.

  4. If multiple users in the system are involved with a request, allow for the request be cross-listed under both/all user accounts. Similarly to collaboration, users will be able to work together on an application, but the request will then appear in both/all users' request histories.

  5. It would be great if we were able to sort Fund Fee Types in alphabetical order.

  6. CSuite/GLM synced grants: Applicants that receive multiple grants from designated funds need to be able to see the Fund Name in order to easily differentiate between the grants they have received. It needs to be available for other forms and merge fields too. Specifically on Follow Up forms and in email merge templates.

  7. One of my Grant evaluators brought to my attention that our tables are skewing very oddly when viewed as an evaluator in side by side mode. I've attached the screenshot they sent for reference.

    It would be great if the table could either scale in size, maintaining the correct ratio, or become a slider box, with a left to right scroll in order to see the whole thing in the correct ratio. Currently it is difficult to read the answers in the table, let alone a long response.

    While the two panes of the application/evaluation can be resized, this is…

  8. I would love to be able to organize/rearrange the files I upload into the Shared Documents. A drag and drop feature like the e-mail templates would be fantastic.

  9. Adding a label for Primary evaluator would also be a helpful benefit. We often assign a primary and secondary reviewer to each evaluation and Foundant currently does not seem to have a way to note this withing the system.

  10. In the Application 'document viewer', i was wondering if it would be possible to request the additional of a 'download all' button.

    I need to download all of the attachments as separate PDF files, which currently requires me to click the download icon up to 20 times per application.

    This has been submitted by multiple users over the years. I don't think it would be difficult to implement. PLEASE consider it.

  11. Hi! We would love to have the option to either (1) Have internal automatic reminders sent to administrators, or (2) Have an automatic email option in the Follow Ups sent to Administrators as a reminder. We need this because we have included a Membership Process in our GLM portal, where non-profits are given a free membership to coworking space. We don't want to automatically assign a follow-up report that asks if they'd like to renew their membership in case we don't want to renew their membership, but we would like some sort of automation to remind us that their membership…

  12. It would be nice for GLM to have the capability to store, search, and sort documents within the Organization's Documents tab. Our team would like to upload site visit reports and grantee impact reports, so it would be more streamlined to be able to filter and sort through the entire Documents tab, especially if there are 10+ documents stored there.

  13. When a grant is awarded, in the Decision form, add a field that integrates with the "Grant Type" field from CSuite.

  14. We use a scholarship scoring rubric that uses weighted scales for Income & GPA. In order to alleviate the workload for our evaluators, we don't ask them to score income or GPA since it is a fixed score based on the scale.

    We calculate these scores along with a total score using formulas within reporting. Currently, I am keeping the 9 lines of formula used to calculate the scores in a Word doc and copying and pasting each of the 9 lines into SLM Reporting for each Opportunity.

    It gets pretty time consuming, considering that we have 150+ reports to…

  15. Our scholarship scoring rubric uses weighted scales for income and GPA. To alleviate the workload for our scoring committees, we don't ask them to score income or GPA because it is a fixed score based on our scale, we use the formulas to calculate those scores and also a total score.

    There isn't a way to save formulas within reporting to where I could just copy and paste once or ideally, I would like to save the formula "set" and turn it on and off.

    It gets pretty time consuming to copy and paste each of the nine lines of…

  16. We only want to accept a certain number of letters of Inquiry. The process we have been using is to turn on submission by setting the Visibility field to Public, and then turning it to Restricted once we have reached the desired number.
    This past funding cycle, we received three times our maximum in the first two minutes. The manual approach is no longer working for us.

    It would be great if the system could be set to accept only a certain number of LOIs and then automatically set the Visibility field to Restricted. Alternately, it could be set to…

  17. In GLM, the address fields do not allow for international organizations, and the strict requirements often make it so international applicants have to input incorrect information in order to create a profile. It would be great if these fields could accommodate international addresses.

  18. Our SLM evaluators would like to see the Score column populated with the total from the scoring they complete with the decimal question. Our committees prefer having the ability to score using .25, .5, and .75 on our 1-10 scoring scale, so that is why we do not use the provided Score question type on our evaluation forms. Is there any way we could have that column give the option to total that other question type? Our committee members would like to see how their scores compare across the applicants during their review. Thanks!

  19. 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.

  20. After talking to Foundant Support, I think it would be nice for fund advisors to be able to generate reports. Specifically, if fund advisors can pull a report with donor names, addresses, gift amounts, etc., rather than having to click into each donor's profile, would be helpful for the nonprofits and donors we serve.
