have a field that shows an organization's prior request/award
In reporting our board /vetting committee would like to see an organization's prior request/grant amount. We have numerous applicants that are coming back for funds too soon and it would be great if there a field that would show this information.

We allow all applicants to submit as often as possible however the number one question in the board meeting is when did we last fund them.

Hi! I am following up on this request. Chris- Thanks for responding back- This would not help us because while our "guidelines" state this requirement - there may be times when an organization has multiple requests that they would like the foundation to consider. This allows the Foundation to review these requests at one time.
Also, many grantees tend to "forget" when they last applied/ received a grant- this would allow us to make sure this oversight does not happen.

We also show the prior grant amount to our boards/panels, so having a field that pulls that for us automatically would be nice. For us, that would have to be specific to the process type - the last time they got the same type of grant. (See my suggestion on coding processes... this is another reason that being able to code/type processes would be helpful.)
Re configuring the site to not accept more than one application from an organization within a time period - yes, that would be nice for other reasons, but grantees are allowed to apply to multiple processes, so it would have to be per process, not for all grants.

Hi,
Thanks for the suggestion. Would it be acceptable to if we could configure your site to not accept more than one application from a user/organization within some time period? Or not accept an application if they already have one that is "open" in the system?
Thanks,
