Add titles to reports
It would be great if there was a way to give a report a title, so it is print-ready. Currently, I export it as a pdf and then add the title there. Without Adobe Acrobat Pro, I wouldn't be able to do that, so I would think this is a challenge for those who don't have it.

Add Resubmission Date under Follow Ups/Submitted tab
Please either add a column that is a Resubmitted date, or modify the date that is shown under Submitted to be the most recent date the form is submitted. It only shows the original submission date. Often, after reviewing payment request forms, we revert the form back to Draft so grantee can correct/complete form and resubmit. But when we look at Submitted tab it still shows their original submission date, not the date they submitted their corrected version. We like that we can export the Submitted date...thanks for implementing that! Enhancing with above suggestion will make that feature all the…

Exporting Comments
Would it be possible to build in the functionality to to export Organization Comments? (Ideally, I'd find it really helpful if both the Comments & the Organization description could be included in the pdf produced by "Print Organization Packet", but failing that any kind of export functionality for comments would be great!)
The same question also applies for project comments (we just happen to use the organization ones more).

Improve student applicant experience in SLM
The idea is that 3rd party recommenders should only be invited one-time to recommend eligible students.
With the roll out of the new student dashboard in SLM, ineligible students are seeing "Action Needed" on their dashboards if they have outstanding recommendations.
The problem is twofold 1) Ineligible students believe they qualify or have action items 2) recommenders are wasting their time
Right now, the system either seeks recommendation for ineligible students (if 3rd party questions are built into the UA) OR requires eligible students to seek multiple recommendations from the same people for each eligible scholarship (if 3rd party questions…

Email to Admin in Evaluation Stage
It would be nice if we could have a notification to administrators when an evaluator has completed their evaluations so you know to move to the next step.

Printing out emails
It would be very helpful if I could print out sent emails from the GMS. My workaround is to copy myself on my email templates but I'd like the ability to go and print out any sent emails, as needed.

foundation assigned grant numbers
We use a grant number that we assign after an application is submitted. The number reflects the year and order received within the year. We have historically used this number to a great extent and have created a field for it in GMS. The place we really miss it is on all of the Open Requests screens where the headings are proscribed and include Process, Organization, Applicant, Project. Does anyone else long for the opportunity to have Number reflected there? Has anyone found a good way to work around that? If we want to get the number to show up…

rename LOI
It would be nice to rename LOI since they aren't really letters, but an application. We want to go to a 2 step application process, the first is an application, and the second is all the attachments.

Bring back the ability to "pop out" the support chat window.
Please bring back the ability to pop out the chat window from the webpage. The revision to the chat prohibits the ability to detach the chat window from the webpage and move it across the screen so its viewable while working in GLM. It now disappears when continuing to work or look at forms to answer support staff questions.

Alphabetize Process Dropdown
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!

Non-Assigned Users to View Follow Up Forms (GLM)
I have several agencies with multiple representatives involved in the grant process. I'd love for a way to allow non-assigned applicants to view all forms (during all statuses) and have the option to submit forms; or create an "all-inclusive collaborate" option so the person who initially applies can allow others to submit any forms and not one specific follow-up.

popup reminder to view print packet when submitting application
As mentioned previously by Angie in this suggestion (http://idealab.foundant.com/forums/339786-glm-idea-lab/suggestions/12344550-print-packet-option-by-save-and-submit-buttons), applicants aren't really using the print packet option to check for file upload errors or for changes in the text (which sometimes occur after pasting in and saving the application). I like Angie's idea of a button, or possibly a popup reminder ("Are you ready to submit - have you looked at the print packet to see if there were any errors in text or uploads?"). Either way, maybe "Preview" or "Preview Application" would make more sense than "Print Packet" to the applicant.

Timing of Automated Emails
This idea was posted back in 2019 and had 20+ upvotes. Our grantees receive their automatic email reminders for forms in the middle of the night - about 3am CST! Support says that emails begin sending automatically at 2am, and continue until they have all been sent. There needs to be an option to adjust this. Nonprofit employees shouldn't worry about their phones pinging in the middle of the night. "Hey, it's us! Just popping into your bedroom to remind you that your follow up form is due tomorrow!" LOL

Evaluator batch print function
Someone else has already asked to add batch printing to the Evaluations stage, but we really need it to go one further, and to allow Evaluators to batch print for themselves. This is the number one thing all our Evaluators, many of whom are reading over a 100 applications at a time, have been asking for for the last several years, and when we switched to Foundant, we had thought we were giving them that, only to find out after the fact that we misunderstood, and they still have to download one pdf at a time. Adding batch printing to…

It would be great if we could either save a draft of an email to an individual or schedule emails to go out at a certain time.

Move "Choose File Type" in Create Documents
When you go to create documents, place "Choose File Type" at top of box above document listing. I have a long list of documents and can't see "Choose File Type;" although I'm learning, I frequently don't understand why clicking "Create Document" doesn't do anything.

Custom Column Widths in Tables
Currently the columns in tables are all the same width, but there are use cases where it would make sense for one column to be wider than another.
For example, in our budget we have 5 columns - Expense, Request, Cash Match, In-Kind Match, and Calculation/Description. By my calculation if you have 5 columns only 33 characters are visible at one time. However, in our use case, 3 of the fields would not contain more than 7 characters (plus the characters for the column headings). Being able to resize those columns would free more real estate for fields where users…

Shared Documents for Applicants
We would to have a 'Shared Documents' folder specifically for our applicants/grantees to be able to access.
I.e. This way the Agreement to Grant Terms is available for them to access at any time through their profile.
