  3. We want to pull a report of all evaluation forms (a copy of each evaluation for each evaluator) and we want the email of the evaluator to be on that report (we can only get first and last name)... this way we can use excel to filter the email of the evaluators that haven't completed or started the evaluations... has anyone else figured out a way to do this with one data set?

  4. I would love it if repeat applicants who have an overdue requirement (aka Follow-Up) would get a message when they try to start a new proposal. . . like "Hey! You still owe us a Final Report from 2013. Please contact us." Perhaps this mechanism could be similar to the email that pops up if they try to create a duplicate organization? We'd hate for them to spend the time and energy to prepare and submit a proposal that is VERY likely to be screened out due to their delinquent Follow-up. Thank you for considering!

  5. We want to send decision notifications to the primary contact for an organization, usually the organization top executive, but also want to notify the applicant, either by a copy of the email or by sending it to both. That is not currently possible with batch email because it defaults to the applicant, so in instances where the primary contact and applicant are different, batch emails cannot be used for these notifications.

  6. We just figured out that one can use "decision comments" as a merge field in customized email templates, and we love it! It's so convenient when sending out a batch email to be able to just merge these comments! We've successfully used it for one of our pocesses that only has an application (no LOI). Now we're working on a process WITH an LOI, and when we approved the LOIs it simply moved them over into the "draft application" category, and the comments we entered did not get classified as "decision comments". I can guess why they are treated differently:…

  7. A place to see your requests to support, both open and closed, and their status. Sometimes you have multiple tickets open and if someone in my organization wants/needs an update, I cannot provide one without emailing support again.

  8. For example, trying to easily sort for this on my main dashboard, without creating a report. Want to easily email all previous grantees within a process about a new opportunity. I've already created the email template using Foundant.

  9. When approving or declining an application the email applicant box appears at the bottom of the application next to the Save Approval & Approval button, but not after you've either saved or approved it.
    Doesn't it make sense to email your recipient AFTER the approval, then if you are using a template with the Approval amt. fields in it, they will actually contain the approval data? If I email before approval it doesn't work and those fields come up with a zero. So my point is, can you add the email applicant button on the screen after the approval or…

  10. The current follow-up could benefit from a review and approval section. I agree we can insert an administrative comment and in short let the grantee know this has been approved but for organizations where there is a bit of a review and approval process it would be helpful to have something built into the flow to show the approval details to the grantee, along with any suggestions/feedback to include with next deliverable. Right now the system allows for all follow-up from grantee with no shared feedback to them outside of an email. So someone not familiar with the project and…

  11. Please allow for editing the date format in email templates. Our organization would never ordinarily send letters with a date of 05/02/2018, but instead with May 2, 2018. Would like the option to format dates more formally, as exists in Excel.

  12. The email to third parties from an applicant has the link button at the very bottom of the page and "here" is highlighted. I seem to have a lot of international people that completely miss that little statement under the signature block. (Even when I state the location in the email) Can it be located more visible on the email or worded differently?

  13. Please remove case-sensitivity when entering data into email and website fields in organization records. I spend a lot of time editing these fields because of error messages prompted by uppercase letters when actual functionality isn't impacted by case in either emails or websites.

  14. We would like to send a batch email to all users. We have over 1500 users and the system allows only 200 at a time. So, we have to manually check 200 boxes eight times to send the email. Is there an easier way?

  15. It is difficult to find the current version of the Applicant Tutorial on the Help page or "Base Camp" page for us to put into our emails to potential grantees. As this is something that all Foundations need to instruct all their grantees on basic help, it should really be the first thing people see, not hidden three or four steps deep into the BaseCamp page. Please put the most frequently used instructions at the top.

  16. It would be very helpful to have an "Email to" button on the Decision page for grants that were previously awarded. It's currently available only when the Decision form is being completed.

  17. After selecting evaluators and clicking Save, a message pops up saying "Evaluators have been saved." There is a button to Send Email or Close. If you have an automatic email sent when assigning evaluations, this pop-up is confusing and many times our admin has clicked on the Send Email button, sending a second email to the evaluators. It would help if the message was expanded to say "If you have set up automatic notifications to evaluators, the notification has been sent. Click Close to continue."

  18. I would be great if an automatic email would be sent out if I create a new user-- this way the person would know right away instead of having to manually reach out to them. Maybe a checkbox if you would like to notify them you have created a new account.

  19. I have students who apply for multiple scholarships and use the same recommender for each scholarship. The recommender does a recommendation for one scholarship but not the others. I would like to see the scholarship name added to the automatic email sent to the recommenders. Currently the email has the students name, but not the scholarship name. If possible I would like to see the name of the scholarship on that email as well so that the recommender understands that they are writing a recommendation for a different scholarship.

    I would also like to see the student's name and scholarship…

  20. I would propose to add a status, which comes before Application Draft in the timeline, called "Encouraging Application." This would not be anything the applicant submitted - it would be like the Decision Form, entered by the grants manager, but it would have to be optional. This would allow me to get organizations in the queue that I have been talking to about applying, and make notes about our conversations and my efforts/encouragements to date, and then to stop worrying about them once they moved into the Application Draft status. So often I lose sight of an organization that we'd…
