GLM: Block new application if grant report isn't complete

Block new application from applicant who hasn't completed a grant report on a previous grant award. This would encourage applicants to complete their grant report and provide another level of due diligence built into GLM

    Due to the timelines of our applicaiton, follow up and disbursement, I would like to give a warning instead of blocking.

  • Sara Shaut commented  ·   ·  Report

    I also agree with this recommendation. It would save me a lo
    t of time!

    +1 for per-process settings and applicant warning. This would help communicate our policies in a friendly manner.

  • Conner Peckham commented  ·   ·  Report

    Agreed. When creating a new process, having the ability to toggle on a "Prevent the creation of a new LOI/Application if a pending/overdue follow-up exists for the following existing processes" option (with all existing processes available with checkboxes) would be amazing. We have some processes where orgs can apply no matter their participation in another grant, but some processes that are very specific around how often they can reapply.

    I also agree "Would love this if it was "overdue" follow ups (rather than just any outstanding/upcomming follow ups) - we have no problem with multiple grant requests but only if they're in good standing"

  • Silby commented  ·   ·  Report

    I agree with Amy Bonner.

    Would love this if it was "overdue" follow ups (rather than just any outstanding/upcomming follow ups) - we have no problem with multiple grant requests but only if they're in good standing.

    Would be a great feature but would like to be able to turn this feature on and off.

  • Sabrina BCF commented  ·   ·  Report

    This is critical so organizations are not considered for a new grant if they were not in compliance on a former grant.

    If the software could alert applicants that they have a follow-up due in another process before they begin an application, that would be really helpful. We probably wouldn't block them from starting a new application but would really love for them to be given notice.

    Similarly, we would like applicants to receive an alert if any fields in their organization info are missing.

    Interesting idea and I could see the value in it. However, because we share a platform with two other foundations, I would not want this to be a sitewide change because they run their operations very differently than we do and it could cause them issues.
