  1. Please make merging documents as easy as using merge for batch emails. It's ridiculous after all these years that the workflow for doing this is still so clunky.

    1. download the field codes
    2. make sure you no to answer "No" when the popup comes up
    3. copy and paste the codes into the template in Word
    4. upload the template
    5. go to Requests and Decisions and search for the appropriate requests and decisions, and
    6. create the documents.

  2. When using the 'My Organization Chart' feature in GLM, would be nice to allow top-level GMs to assign or re-assign applications to lower-level GMs within their team.

  3. Would it be possible in the future for applicants to type in their EIN and it would prepopulate their Organization Name? It would help ensure that there aren't differences in spelling/format between organization names and would get rid of some steps for our merge template creation!

  4. Remove the Rating system from Evaluations as a required field.
    Our Evaluations never show as Complete even when they are because we do not use a rating system to evaluate grants.

  5. I need a table summary row that is a simple calculation, not just a sum.

    Like A-B-C=D

  6. When sending documents through DocuSign via Foundant we want to let multiple people be able to do it. At the moment Foundant only allows it to be connected to one account so other people are not able to receive the documents that they sent out on DocuSign. If there was a way to have separate Foundant accounts connected to different DocuSign keys.

  7. View for students needs updating. We previously used a different software. Each section (family, academics, essays, etc.) had it's own customizable icon with a picture and a progress bar to show what % of that section was completed. SLM UA looks so daunting for students.

  8. Hi Idea Lab! I'm having an ongoing issue when it comes to creating reports that have a date field that has been modified with a formula. E.G., I have grants that have an "Award Period End Date" and a "Amended Award Period End Date" for those that have been extended. In reporting, I can configure it so that I see one column that displays the original end date is if it has not been modified, or an amended end date is if it has been modified. However, even though I specify the output as a date field, the reporting feature…

  9. Hyperlinks are not clickable in the document viewer. Which means I would need to download the file to access links (defeating the purpose of the document viewer). Being able to click to links right from the document viewer would help streamline our work.

  10. For the "organization changed" event type notification, it would be nice to have the option to send a notification to GLM Administrator ONLY, and not copy the the organization's primary contact.

    There are many cases when I would like to be notified of organization updates, to ensure they're done correctly or to turnover in an organization, but would not be appropriate to copy the org primary.

  11. Hello, I would like to suggest to add a function that will allow to re-order the filter for processes (not process manager). If processes have years currently the old processes will appear at the top and new processes at the bottom. And as we work more on new processes as older processes are almost complete, the function to re-order them will be very helpful. Thank you

  12. UA- Assign evaluations for a reviewer across different processes. We have randomized reviews for our UA applicants (usually 500 applicants) and 70+ reviewers. It is so time consuming to assign each evaluator to their 20 applicants (which can be 200+ unique processes for each evaluator).

    This is similar to another idea, but I want to make sure it inlcdes UA too.

  13. Request ID number

    We would like to be able to identify a particular request or award by an ID number, and then search for requests based on that number. I wish Foundant assigned a simple ID to each request or award. (not the 32 digit GUID, which is not usuable).

    I know we could add an internal field and assign our own number, but there could be duplication or errors in that process.

  14. I would like to be able to add a second award to a grant that has been partially funded, even if the first payment has been made. We make grants from committee, but then offer the opportunity to fulfill grants that aren't funded or only partially funded to our donor-advised funds. They appreciate the opportunity, but their decisions might be made months later. To maintain the full history of that grant request and response, i would like to make a second award, but I can't. I have to create a grant in c-suite, which is fine, but then the history…

  15. Currently, when I create a table that may have an unknown number of rows used (such as asking applicants to list the date, time, location of grant-funded events), I just have to guess at what might be the right number of rows to add. If an applicant only uses one row of 10 available, the application packet will still print all 10 rows and use up a lot of space. Can blank rows be collapsed in the application packet?

    (Even better would be to allow applicants to add rows if needed, but I suspect that's more complicated.)

  16. After more than 6 years at Foundant, I still forget to click Save Summary when editing process summary bc it is usually out of my line of sight. Clients do this all the time. Moving it into line of vision would really help people not lose changes.

  17. On the "Merge Templates" page, it would be helpful if we could arrange and view the merge documents in order by column header, specifically by date or alphabetically.

  18. Maybe this exists already....it would be so helpful to be able to filter evaluators by process - we have a committee for each grant and clicking through each time while referring to the original committee list is cumbersome. If I could filter evaluators to only show the ones who would score a particular grant program, I could get through assignments much quicker.

  19. We have a budget form with a table for Revenue and a table for Expenses. It would be great to be able to calculate the net (revenue minus expenses) without the applicant having to do math or cut-paste totals from the separate tables into a third table or field.
