  1. It would be great if we could have 'other' as an option for a radio question that gives you (the builder) the choice to automatically produce a text box for applicants to input data around their selection. Currently you have to build 'other' into the question and then build a branched question group, which can not only get messy, but can make the application flow feel very disjointed, depending on the build.

  2. I like the embedded tables for the most part but I really need commas in those integer cells and the sum total cell.

  3. We need a way to export the images in a report/as a batch for our annual reports. These images are uploaded in our final report form.

  4. A site (or process) wide setting that allows us to hide abandoned applications would be helpful. Our board/evaluators are confused if they see this information in the request history tab or in print packets. We delete it but would prefer for it to show on the applicants' side and remain as a historical record.

  5. It would be great if GLM could send multiple automatic reminders to grantees about follow-up due dates. We've found it helpful to give grantees a 30-day reminder about a follow-up, but would love it if GLM could send another automatic email a few days before the due date as well to make tracking easier for our grants administrator.

  6. Create a "group by student" button similar to the one for evaluators that allows administrators to group by student in the dashboard buckets.

  7. We'd find the capability to have a particular report auto created on a specific schedule and then have that report available to be emailed (or otherwise served) to a group of users very useful in our grant review process.

    Our use case is in the final days of our application review period, needing to send a report of all incomplete evaluations to grant review team leads so that they can reach out to their team members with a reminder to complete their assigned evaluations.

  8. We believe the administrator comment function is valuable. Its impact could be even stronger if given the option to notify the applicant that a new administrator comment has been added to their application. This seems to work well for the Idea Lab!

  9. Hi All,
    On December 6th, 2023 we updated the theme/general styling of GLM/SLM. We hope you all are enjoying these shifts in design, but in our commitment to continual improvement, we wanted to create a space where feedback could be collected. As you adopt the new look and feel, please use this idea to help continue to iterate with your feedback.

    Best,
    Sammie

  11. Either sync grantees change of address in GLM to CSuite as primary/pay/mailing so we are not mailing grant checks to old addresses, OR, have an alert for when grantees change their addresses in GLM.

  12. Please put a delay on the first year follow ups and other required documentation, otherwise, the grantee receives a follow up before a paper letter with terms or a check has arrived. This causes a lot of confusion for the grantee who assumes that both of those have arrived and panic in locating them. It also generates a lot of phone calls and emails regarding these. A month delay would help considerably.

  13. It would be great to allow Follow-up Due Dates to be shared within Decision forms or future follow-ups. For example, within our Decision process and within our Grant Agreements (follow 1), we mention that grantees will need to complete a Final Report (follow-up 2). We would like to auto-populate the Due Date of the follow-up 2 in both the Decision process and the Grant Agreement so that grantees can sign-off that they acknowledge and commit to the final report. Being able to auto-populate this field based on system due-dates would allow for efficiency as well as minimize human error. This…

  14. It would be nice if we could have a notification to administrators when an evaluator has completed their evaluations so you know to move to the next step.

  15. In order to facilitate the archival of correspondance linked to an organization or a request, we try to always send e-mails directrly from Foundant (using the "Send (no template)" option.

    However, the responses come to our Outlook inbox and we have to save them somewhere in order to upload them in the Document section of the organization or request. It takes time and it does not allow us to view all correspondance in one place (e-mail history).

    There is a lot of back and forth with applicants and grantees, so that would be very useful!

    We are continuing to understand the  needs and workflows for emails that need to come back into the system. 


    What providers are people using? 

    Are there emails other than responses to system messages that need to live in the system? 

    If an email was sent in relation to a request, example for submitted, where would you want to view that email from? 


    Any thoughts are very helpful

  16. We use branching questions in our grant application that are set to internal so we can branch an applicant to the application we want them to complete and not have multiple processes in our site. I just realized that when an applicant clicks on the "Question List" button in their site, this shows them ALL of the questions in our application, regardless of how the application should be branched. The fact that applicants can see the entire question list for an application seems to negate the purpose of branching. This is very confusing for applicants because they do not know…

    Hello,

    You are correct in that all branch groups are displayed in the question list; we follow this as best practice for projects like project streamlining so that applicants don't become surprised by the amount of time the application will take them. We also encourage as a best practice that you add instructions to the branch groups for that visibility and communication explain when they will see that group.


    However, Internal Questions should not be displayed to applicants. Please report this to our support team so that we can review it.

  17. Is there a way in GLM when sending an email to have the reply come back into the system so that it is recorded? Currently, I input my outlook email address in the "Reply To" but that does not pull into the GLM. I would like to be able to keep track of responses in a more seamless manner.

  18. Right now, Foundant does not allow you to create and format a Merge Template that you can then use as the Print Packet associated with each form. The editing capabilities for the Print Packets are extremely limited and there is certainly room for formatting and content improvements. It would be very helpful if admins were able to create and format a Merge Template in a way that is most supportive for their team and evaluators and use that as the Print Packet.

  19. Would like to be able to copy real application data to Sandbox for testing rather than having to recreate application data in Sandbox. Implementing a new rubric for evaluating and spent a bit of time entering application data to test new rubric. Thanks!

  20. We have a question used in several processes. I propose a question maintained in the process manager than can be added to multiple processes. We would have one location to maintain the response options for simplicity/authority. It would also streamline reporting metrics with uniform answers for comparison.
