  1. Not sure if this should be form building or reviewing, but the default now when editing or reviewing the UA and other processes is when you open one question group, the other collapses. I would like to ability to have multiple or as many question groups open as I want at the same time, in case I'm trying to review items/questions between them. I understand some people may want to only see one at a time, so making this a setting would give admins an option to decide which way they prefer.

  2. We need the ability to pull committee name in reporting. Each year our team needs to verify with external committee managers who is participating on their committee in the coming year. Since these individuals are volunteers, they often change. Right now, we can't run a report to match users names and emails to assigned committee.

  3. We have renewable scholarships and ask the students to fill out a shortened version of the application for their renewal award. We just had a student fill out their shortened renewal application, but when I went to review it, there were internal admin-only questions that were already answered! I double checked the process and they are listed as internal so the student shouldn't have been able to see those questions so how was he able to answer them?

    It turns out the student used the Copy Process feature to copy answers from his original application to help him fill out…

  4. I wish i had a way to confirm existing vendor ids that are hand entered. If my grant managers make a mistake here, the wrong people get paid.

    I looked at using a branching question. But there is no way to see if the answer to Q1 matches the answer to Q2...

    In my form it's set up as:

    Does your school have an existing THR Vendor ID? (Y/N)

    Branch Group: Yes

    Enter school's THR vendor ID: __________ (integer, limited to 15 chars)
    Confirm school's THR vendor ID: _________ (integer, limited to 15 chars)

    I want the next section to…

  5. Returned Checks. When a check is returned due to insufficient funds, etc. it would be great if there is a feature that allows the original bank deposit to show the original amount of the deposit but allows an individual check to be returned so that the transaction matches what happens on your bank statement. Also, when these transactions cross months, the reconciliation isn't as straightforward.

  6. 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…

  7. Currently we can add two custom columns to the Your Evaluations tab for our evaluators, but when the evaluations are closed and we allow our evaluators to see all the closed evaluations prior to our Board meeting, there is no way to add custom columns on that page. We do not review the grant applications by alpa order of the organization or project name. We assign grant numbers and will review the grants in that order. When we get to our meeting, I have to export and create a spreadsheet for our evaluator trustees to use to follow along with…

  8. We would greatly appreciate a revamp of the new user registration. Currently, we have a lot of new users at existing organizations in our system creating duplicate organization accounts because of the way the registration ties organizations and users together. We need a way for a new user to be able to register themselves, and then either select their organization and be approved by an admin, or allow an administrator to send a quick invite link to the new user where the organization is already selected for them.

    This would cut down on the amount of time internal staff spend…

  9. 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

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

  12. Add the ability to add an auto-email template so users can be notified when a document is added to the documents tab. Especially if applicant facing.

  13. Users may find it helpful if Foundant updated the language on the applicant-facing pop-up that notifies users of existing request drafts. Currently, the pop-up provides link to the existing draft(s) and two buttons: Apply and Cancel, which does not seem to be intuitive for navigating to an existing draft.

    To reduce confusion, would it be possible to change the Apply button text to Start New Draft. This updated language would clearly indicate that selecting this option will create a new draft rather than continuing with an existing one.

    This change should improve the user experience by making the navigation options…

  14. Would it be possible to add a drop down for students wheen filling out personal information. ie Mr., Ms. and that when a student types street or St. it would auto change to Street? this would save us so much time in making corrections.

  15. Our board members who review grants would like to be able to create their own report that would show their comments for each applicant, so they could print these and bring them to the review meeting.

  17. It would be very helpful to have a custom Notes or Comments column available that admins can write directly in on the dashboard, especially since pinned comments are not currently an option in SLM.

    Use case: 1 universal application submitted turns into 5 scholarship applications, so 500 UA submissions could lead to 2500 applications in submitted. I as an admin then go in by student and vet their applications before marking them complete. If there are notes I want to make for that specific scholarship application, there is currently not a way to do that in the application that are…

  19. TLDR: I'd like to be able to reuse a snippet of a form on another form, perhaps from a library of snippets.

    Let's say in 2023 I built one great form and copied it 20 times so that all my forms built in 2023 used the best practice of sharing their fields (variables). Now in 2024 I have a new group of fields - budget or demographic fields that I need to add.

    After developing a fancy new table on one application form, the admin should be able to save it to a library of snippets and then it should…

  20. I'd like to be able to customize the Third Party Dashboard columns to indicate if the request is a transcript, a letter of recommendation, or something else. Currently, the requestee has to click on each request or remember each email to know what is waiting for them. It may be helpful to have a descriptor column of the nature of the request.
