  1. In the new version of the applicant experience (which we are big fans of!), I love that the process is listed up front, our grantees used to struggle with identifying their different grants and which program they were connected to, but now the project name doesn't seem to be reflected anywhere on the new applicant home page. For our grantees/organizations that may have more than one project in a process (fairly common with local universities or hospital systems) the follow ups are indistinguishable unless they click into the form. Is there anywhere or any way that the project name could…

  2. It would be helpful when adding a comment in the Application or Follow-up forms that the comment stands out. For example, allow us to make the comment bubble red or yellow, or change the font color/size or make it bold. Anything to make it stand out from the rest of the Application or Follow-Up form would be extremely useful. I recently had to mark a follow-up form as incomplete, and I added comments to the questions that I needed clarification on and even after sending multiple emails (through Foundant) to the applicant to please see the comments to help her…

  3. Please add back the live form preview option on the new user dashboard rather than just the PDF option.

  4. May I suggest a document viewer for those under the documents tab? A colleague states it would be nice to be able to preview a document without downloading it.

  5. In our process each applicant receives at least three reviews from three different evaluators. It would be nice if I could randomly assign evaluators to the applicants. I currently do this by creating an excel file with the applicants on the vertical axis and the evaluators on the horizontal. I assign each applicant a number and use a random number generator to assign the applications each reviewer is expected to review. To be able to do this quickly within the GLM system would be great. I know some of the competitors provide this option.

  6. Additional standard merge fields available in email templates and the ability to customize / add your own to the forms. We have information that must legally be included in our approval and denial letters which are not available to be merged into the email, so we need to stop and fill in each manually, reducing the efficiency of automation within GLM.

  7. We pay grantees on a reimbursement basis. With some programs, this is a quarterly request, with others it is a single installment at completion of project.
    In either case, their budget will be collected in excel as part of the application. I would like that file to live with the specific project and be used to request reimbursements. Since file uploads are not shared questions, I don't have an easy way to help applicants do this.
    I saw that others had requested this functionality previously and the request hasn't been implemented due to lack of support. I'm hoping that by…

  8. When a staff member leaves an organisation - rather than going through and reassigning the requests and follow ups - it would be ideal if the requests and follow-ups associated with their user were automatically reassigned to the primary contact for the organisation.

  9. In the process manager, there is currently 2 buckets for processes to live:
    -Available
    -Archive

    We'd like to see a third option for processes to live for historical management:
    -Available/Active
    -Unavailable/Inactive
    -Archive/Historical

    We have processes that have gone through several updates over time. It would be nice to keep what we need in Available/Active and Unavailable/Inactive buckets but older version in Archive/Historical that are not so forward facing. Not available on the immediate search area/filter area. A place for historical process to go and live instead of deleting or saving a PDF version on our internal drives.

    It would also…

  10. I have several agencies with multiple representatives involved in the grant process. I'd love for a way to allow non-assigned applicants to view all forms (during all statuses) and have the option to submit forms; or create an "all-inclusive collaborate" option so the person who initially applies can allow others to submit any forms and not one specific follow-up.

  11. It would be helpful to have the option to move, make bold, or otherwise highlight the Evaluator Descriptions which appear under the scholarship name when an evaluator is reviewing an application in SLM. It is easy to miss the Evaluator Descriptions where they are now and it would help to have them stand out and be more visible/noticeable to evaluators during the review process.

  12. Custom Message/Yellow Card - In the New Dashboard, the yellow card/custom message card in the upper left corner needs to have the visibility adjusted so more of our custom message can be seen, similar to the other cards. Right now, it is cut in half with a large blank space that serves no purpose.

  13. When choosing .doc or .pdf for a merge doc, it would be helpful if that choice was available at the top of the list of templates, instead of having to scroll to the bottom.

  14. Someone else has already asked to add batch printing to the Evaluations stage, but we really need it to go one further, and to allow Evaluators to batch print for themselves. This is the number one thing all our Evaluators, many of whom are reading over a 100 applications at a time, have been asking for for the last several years, and when we switched to Foundant, we had thought we were giving them that, only to find out after the fact that we misunderstood, and they still have to download one pdf at a time. Adding batch printing to…

  15. Red flagging organizations or individuals if they have not completed a follow up report. Saw an idea about stopping an application if the organization has not completed a follow up. This idea would be along the same lines however if would be a more prominent visual alert in foundations work flows

  16. When an evaluator uses the Process filter on the dashboard, completes and saves an evaluation form, then clicks the Next Pending Evaluation button, the next one may not be from that filtered Process. Please make it so the Process filter pulls through to when the evaluation forms are advance to the next request.

    Also, it would be much better for evaluators if the sort by organization on the dashboard would pull through to when they go into evaluation forms so Next Pending Evaluation button takes them to the next request that is alphabetical by organization name.

  17. Change the symbol of the Integer question type away from a # to something else.

    In our application we ask for percent of people served in our county. We built that question with the integer question type because that was the only question type where we could restrict the entry to two numerical digits.

    But our applicants and reviewers are confused because we are asking for a percentage but the little symbol next to it is the number sign, so it almost looks like we are asking for the raw number of people, not the percent of people.

  18. Add to the Follow Up workflow a Deferral bucket.

    We allow most recipients to defer their award for up to one year. It would be great to have this on the dashboard as a workflow option. Of course adding a third function at the bottom of a Submitted Follow-up - "follow-up deffered"

  19. Currently, when building a form in GLM it allows us to sync certain CSuite fields from the grant. We would like to be able to sync the Fund Name from CSuite to GLM.
