  1. Can we default reports to export without formatting? The grey seems unnecessary. It would also be great if emails through the system weren't grey either. Thanks!

  2. I would like to be able to add and remove buckets from the Open Requests section of the administrator dashboard. I have two different application processes, and I would like to quickly and easily see statuses for both of them on the dashboard, instead of having to click into application statuses, apply a filter to view one process, and then change the filter to view the other process.

    Hi Mark, Thank you for the feedback. The one tricky part about requested amount is that it is a custom field and not a system field in 2026 we may be looking at how we can create more system fields, or creating coding that would help us know what fields are similar across clients to use in scenarios like this.

  4. For the most part, One Row Per Request gives us everything we want, but it squishes all the Forms (Approval, Agreements, Interim Reports, Final Reports) into one cell.

    The system is capable of separating each Form into its own Row; I wish it could separate them into Columns.

    Am I underestimating how computationally complex it would be for the system to do One Row Per Thing AND One Column Per Other Thing at the same time?

  5. We would really like to have information uploaded to an Organizational page/section. For example - one-time upload of 501(c)3 documents, board members, organizational chart, the reason for non-profit, D&O insurance ect. A place where they can change when needed, but not each grant cycle.

  6. When searching for an organization in a certain city or state, after you click on the first one you want to look at, it takes you all the way back to the main organization screen and you have to put in the city and state again. It doesn't allow you to just look at the original search list.

  7. I would like the ability to download an organization's request history into an excel. I used to be able to copy / paste as a workaround, but cannot do that any longer with the new dashboard.

  8. 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.

  9. We have long project names for our applications and an automatically generated request ID (example 20240041) that includes the year, would be helpful to identify and search for a specific request, without needing to remember the project name or organization name.

  10. I would like to be able to set a default answer to questions on the application. Like for drop down or radial buttons, I want to choose a default and then have the option to change it if needed. It would also be useful for information to auto populate from one question to another. For example, the project title would autofill to another question that is a summary of the request.

  11. We'd find the capability to have a particular report auto created on a specific schedule and then have that report available to be emailed (or otherwise served) to a group of users very useful in our grant review process.

    Our use case is in the final days of our application review period, needing to send a report of all incomplete evaluations to grant review team leads so that they can reach out to their team members with a reminder to complete their assigned evaluations.

  12. 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...

  13. Hello! I'm trying to compile a history on a scholarship recipient's requests and awards, and found that this User Summary/Request History is not exportable. I would like to be able to export this data to an excel file to be able to tabulate and manipulate the data. Thanks!

  14. I would be nice if you could see if a request has been re-assigned by looking in the Request History, or Submission History.

  15. It would be great if GLM could send multiple automatic reminders to grantees about follow-up due dates. We've found it helpful to give grantees a 30-day reminder about a follow-up, but would love it if GLM could send another automatic email a few days before the due date as well to make tracking easier for our grants administrator.

  16. It would be great if we could add a third evaluator to our processes. We follow the USDA process when reviewing applications, with a primary and secondary reviewer each weighted differently, then a board member reviewer. The board member solely assigns a grade to the application, so there is no need to go through the evaluation form and questions. Foundant Support has been great about helping us with a work around with this but ultimately, the addition of a third evaluator would solve all of our issues.

  17. We would love to be able to integrate our bill pay system with GLM so it will automatically update who we have paid after a check run.

  18. In the eligibility quiz in GLM, the ability to customize a "passing" message like you can customize a "failure" message would be beneficial to make things very clear to applicants that they can move on to the application stage. We had a few organizations last cycle that passed the eligibility quiz but it wasn't entirely clear to them that they were allowed to move onto the next step in the application process.

  19. In line with Trust-Based Philanthropy, more and more foundations are completing verbal reporting with grantees, where the foundation staff completes the written follow-up form based on a conversation with a grantee. We have been doing this as an internal follow-up form, but would like the option for the grantee to view what we've typed into the form and confirm that it is accurate and complete before submitting the report and marking it as complete. Other than downloading each follow-up form packet as a PDF and emailing it to them for their manual feedback, is there a way to either:

  20. Once the student hits submit on the UA, is there a way to change the font color of those opportunities that have additional information pending. Currently everything is black or blue, would like to change the "EDIT APPLICATION" to RED to catch the students eye.
