Numeric Grant Numbers
Can Foundant add numeric grant numbers that auto-counts grants in a process?
For example, we support research projects and grantees need to acknowledge it in the research paper with something to the effect of "We acknowledge financial support from "Foundation Name" under grant # ("Foundation Acronym"-***) at the end of the paper. The grant number allows for tracking where we would enter in the grant number in something like Google Scholar and see how many papers have been published through it.
Right now, there are no unique identifiers for Grants to track externally.

Text Ranking with Score
We would love the ability to display ranking options in text to our evaluators, such as
Extremely Clear
Very Clear
Somewhat Clear
Not So Clear
Not at All ClearBUT - We'd like to store them as numeric data so that
Extremely Clear =5
Very Clear =4
Somewhat Clear =3
Not So Clear =2
Not at All Clear =1To be clear, we don't want to show the numeric to the evaluator, just the text.
Currently, we use a complicated formula to calculate the data.5 votes -
Increase number of columns in tables
To effectively use Tables as a shared question in a Follow Up (as stated in documentation, very helpful for Budget and ongoing grantee progress statements) - being limited to only 5 columns does not allow for multi-year grants especially
3 votesThank you for this feedback. We currently have the limitation to making sure tables easily appear on screens and print packers but are continuing to evaluate ways to expand this functionality.

Branched question to be red when they have not been assigned rules.
Branched questions with incorrect question will be marked red. It would be for branched questions to be marked red if no rules have been assigned yet.

Pull Opportunity Info or Flag Questions into Follow Up Forms
When creating Follow Up forms, it would be a real time-saver, and lessen the likelihood of error, to be able to pull information or fields from the Applicant Opportunities section of the Universe into the follow up form. (Or even from the connected CSuite Scholarship.)
Currently, each opportunity we have has its own initial acceptance follow up form where the student must certify they still meet that scholarship's criteria, and we have to manually copy/paste that criteria into the follow up form from the Applicant Description section of the Opportunities page, or the scholarship description in CSuite.
To take it…

Custom Column Widths in Tables
Currently the columns in tables are all the same width, but there are use cases where it would make sense for one column to be wider than another.
For example, in our budget we have 5 columns - Expense, Request, Cash Match, In-Kind Match, and Calculation/Description. By my calculation if you have 5 columns only 33 characters are visible at one time. However, in our use case, 3 of the fields would not contain more than 7 characters (plus the characters for the column headings). Being able to resize those columns would free more real estate for fields where users…

Score based on answers to questions on application.
Need the system to generate a score for the application based on how questions on the application are answered. For example: a GPA between 3.8-4.0 would receive 10 pts, 3.6-3.79 would receive 8 pts, etc. This could be a % score.

minimum character count
It would be great if the admin could set both a minimum and maximum character count for such questions as "Integer." For example, if we require a 7-digit number, we can set the maximum to 7 characters, but we don't have a way to set the minimum character count to 7 as well, which can contribute to mistakes with ID submission.

select multiple rows/columns in tables
Add the ability to select multiple rows/columns when building tables, so that when you mess up for the 50th time, you can delete all your extra rows at once. :-)

Table Question - Ability to Edit Read-Only Cells
When building a table question, It would be GREAT to be able to edit read-only cells. I confirmed with Support that at present, read-only cells do not allow you to edit their content other than their label, yet applicants cannot see cell labels. This means that any read-only cell that is not in a summary row will always show up to applicants as a blank cell.
This is confusing because it makes it seem like you have the option to do something you don't, e.g. put readable content in read-only cells. I would love to be able to do something…

Question Required Type Visibility
When we set up forms, the questions alternate between the required types (required, optional, read only) and visibility (internal, everyone, etc.). It would be helpful if the questions required type was visible at-a-glance similarly to the visibility so that we didn't have to click on the actual question and open it, just to see if its a read-only or optional.

Allow Instruction Questions to be Shared Questions
We input scholarship fund information as instruction questions on our UA application form. We would like to be able to share these to our evaluation forms so that the applicants and the evaluators both have the fund information with staff only needing to update the fund information in one place (currently we have to update in both the application and on the evaluation forms).

Regular Expression - Project Request Field
Limits on Project Request Field
Please allow us to enter regular expressions for the project request field or impose limits in any way. Currently, we use this field for scholarship applications as Initials and Last 4 Digits in an attempt to reduce as much bias during evaluation season. However, despite an 8 character limit, students will forgo their initials, etc. It would be great to have a unified type of answer.
Example: IAS 4777 or IS 4777
Regular Expression provided by Foundant Support would solve this - ^([a-zA-Z]{2,3})((\s)([0-9]{4}))?$1 vote -

Prepopulate Answers in Decision Forms
It would be helpful to prepopulate answers in decision forms in the process manager, similar to how you can prepopulate follow up dates. That would allow for much easier approval and denial; it may even allow for batching.
Example: There may be a generic 2022 Approval Form that I could use across several processes. But in the process manager for a specific process, I could indicate the Board date, the program officer, the grant type, and any other filed on the form that is the same across all awards/denials for that opportunity. This would allow for consistent answers and greatly…
