  1. Would like to be able to create Merge Documents AND attach them to the individual request in a batch rather than only being able to do them individually. Right now, if I batch create a merge document, it cannot be attached to the request. When there are a lot of requests to process, the ability to batch create the merge docs AND attach them to the request would be a time-saver.

  2. It would be great if we could assign follow up reports to multiple users within an organization and they could sync. In our program, we typically have multiple people involved in the grant award and currently, we only have the ability to assign a follow up to one person, meaning that if another is to fill out and submit the report, I need to manually change who it is assigned to. For example, one of the groups awarded through our program uses a grant manager who is currently trying to access their report to add a new file but cannot…

  3. It would be nice to have an option for an editable pop-up message that applicants would see once they are logged in (similar to the landing page message, but something they would have to notice and would see only once they log in). It could be used to notify applicants of any changes to the process or, really, anything that seems important.

  4. I've heard from several of our evaluators that they would like to be able to see the actual number of applications that they have left to score. For instance, under Pending it might say they have 50 left but if students qualify for multiple opportunities, they might only physically look at 15 (because the scores are automatically applied to the other opportunities of that student). They find it frustrating not knowing how much time they will need to carve out of their schedule for scoring.

  5. I'm hoping there is a way our foundation can copy collaborators in email communications and send them auto-generated emails for a request within GLM. Just as there is the option to CC/Copy a primary contact, It would be GREAT to have that same checkbox for CC/Copy collaborators. So many of our organizations use grant writers who are not affiliated with their organization to submit proposals and we need our communications to go to them!

  6. Currently, I'm using SalesForce to track all interactions with people who are not connected with a grant. I meet with many folks and would love to track my meetings, phone calls, etc. I would love to use Foundant for everything.

  7. The new, current checkbox was recently released as part of the Giving Hub updates. We would like to duplicate the checkbox into the Grant Portal, under Grant Requests, so that fundholders have to check a box to acknowledge Miami Foundation-specific terms.

  8. Please can we be given the ability to assign follow-ups for review/evaluation to other team members. It would be super helpful if we could do this within the system.

  9. Building review committees is time consuming and burdensome. Our list of 130+ volunteer committee participants changes annually. It takes MANY hours to select each existing committee in the universe, review and compare to an existing list for the changes and individually add new members, delete old ones, and build new profiles for net new participant. Building new profiles is also challenging since it can't be done on the committee building page so one needs to navigate to a separate window taking the steps to build a new profile and assign a password (yet another extra step).

    It would save many…

  10. Given the way technology has grown over the years, is there a way to integrate Outlook email with Foundant email so that when an email is received, it will automatically show up in Outlook, and when we respond to an email, it will show up in the appropriate applicant file in Foundant?

  11. In order to facilitate the archival of correspondance linked to an organization or a request, we try to always send e-mails directrly from Foundant (using the "Send (no template)" option.

    However, the responses come to our Outlook inbox and we have to save them somewhere in order to upload them in the Document section of the organization or request. It takes time and it does not allow us to view all correspondance in one place (e-mail history).

    There is a lot of back and forth with applicants and grantees, so that would be very useful!

    We are continuing to understand the  needs and workflows for emails that need to come back into the system. 

    What providers are people using? 

    Are there emails other than responses to system messages that need to live in the system? 

    If an email was sent in relation to a request, example for submitted, where would you want to view that email from? 

    Any thoughts are very helpful

  12. Please provide the option to have the Process name appear in the follow-up view. Currently we have the same Follow-up form appearing from three different processes but have no idea which process each one is related to. This is only going to become a bigger issue as time goes by.

  13. I need there to be a way to mass update opportunities in a universe. Going in one at a time to 150+ scholarship names to change it from 2023 to 2024 is maddening and not an effective use of time.

  15. Wouldn't it be great if Evaluators were not only notified that an LOI had been assigned to them, but then they received automated reminders that the deadline to respond was approaching - like Bill Pay Reminders! If I were the Evaluator I would be notified that an LOI had been assigned to me and then notified that it was 10 days, 15 days, 20 days without a response. Of course, you'd have the option to turn it on or off and selected when you'd like the reminders, depending on the process. A bit like how the Applicant is notified when…

  16. I would love it if, when sending an email that's in a template, there was a way to choose a pre-uploaded signature (even if it was plain text). Right now whichever progam officer is sending the email has to go into their outlook email and copy/paste their signature into the email. Is there a way there could be a dropdown menu (or something similar) so that users with admin status could choose a their signature?

  17. I love that we can allow all users to see the organization's request history - we just put this into place. However, they can't see who the follow ups are assigned to, and can't see the question list for the follow up - will that eventually be added? (I'm sure it's complex technologically.) It would be so helpful if they could see, "oh, Emily the CFO is currently set up to submit the follow up, and I can contact the funder to get it assigned to me now that Emily has left the organization." or even "oh, Emily has access…

  18. With the updated applicant dashboard featuring a card/tile layout, applicants, particularly students, can face usability challenges when they’re eligible for multiple scholarships. For example, if a student qualifies for just six or more scholarships, they have to scroll to view all their opportunities.

    To improve the user experience, especially for applicants managing several grants/opportunities, please consider adding a toggle option for a condensed or list-style view. This view could reduce the size of the cards or display opportunities in a single row-based layout, allowing applicants to see more at once without excessive scrolling.

    This enhancement would make navigating the dashboard…

  19. Ok, we all know red means alert. I have so many applicants who get confused about not being able to submit an LOI, Application, or Follow-up due to being over the character limit. There is no visual cue to direct them. Can that please be changed and save me the time of having to figure out what the problem is, having to increase the character count or explain it one more time?

  20. Please allow a date to auto format when entering without dashes. For example, entering 080225 will automatically change to 08/02/2025. This happens in CSuite but not in GLM.
