Allow request documents to be seen by 3rd parties as well.
For grant agreement forms, we often need an institution official to agree to the IP language or grant acceptance form. We usually have the applicant enter in a 3rd party email to complete this, but then have to rely on the applicant to also send them the document they are agreeing to. It would be helpful to have that 3rd party be able to view the request document like the applicant can.

This would also make it easier in SLM as we get many applicants asking if their requests have been submitted. It would be ideal if Administrators could allow the 3rd Party Request questions to be anonymous or not anonymous. Right now everything is only anonymous but it actually makes more sense to have most stuff visible to the applicants.

Agreed. Executive directors are not always eager to agree to an application without being able to review it. Currently, the grant writer or I have to pdf the application and send it to the director.
