Let Grantees Submit SOME Follow Ups Out of Order
I understand that there is a feature that allows follow ups to be submitted either sequentially or in any order. This is helpful if you want all follow ups to follow the same rules. However, we need most of our follow ups to be submitted sequentially, and then just a couple of them to be able to be submitted at any time.
We have deadlines for each of our follow ups, but applicants are welcome to submit certain follow ups with a later deadline (i.e. match documentation) before the others (a final grant report, for example, which we do 3 months before grant end so we have time to set up a renewal conversation). It has to be at least twice a week that we hear from a grantee saying they can't submit their match docs because Foundant requires the follow up with the earlier deadline to be submitted first. It would be greatly beneficial if our applicants could submit just those follow ups regardless of the order of deadlines, or for there to be options in terms of whether or not an applicant has to complete one follow up before another.
Again, this is per follow up, not for all follow ups in general.
