  2. When a student submits their General Application in the UA, you can only see a true number count by pulling a report. It would be helpful if those individual students would show up as submitted, since they have submitted a General Application. The drafted students shows correctly, but it shows 0 for submitted when that it not accurate. Right now they just get moved to the individual opportunity immediately instead of showing in the submitted bucket.

  3. Duplicate Search - I need to list organizations by Organization name, when conducting duplicate searches. I think that used to be an option.

  4. Merge multiple docs to applications: It would be helpful to be able to choose multiple requests and have the option to create a merge doc and save to the request for each one, all at once. This would give the option to create merge docs and save to requests in batches.

  5. The option to add multiple automated emails would significantly improve efficiency. For example, a "report due" automated email is sent to grant recipients 30 days and 7 days before the report is due.

  6. Reposting from

    https://idealab.foundant.com/forums/339786-glm-slm-idea-lab/suggestions/39352042-show-character-count-to-applicants-on-text-boxes#{toggle_previous_statuses}

    Unfortunately, the text boxes do not show a character count while the applicant is filling them in so they are forced to guess and test their content over and over. This becomes frustrating and causes headaches.

    Consistency is key to ease.

  7. Allow for SMS Messaging as another means for contacting applicants. Today's high schools and college students are more apt to monitor and respond to text messages than they are to emails.

  8. When an applicant signs into their dashboard, is it possible to have the access code box appear right away rather than having to click "Apply" at the top of the page first? Our Open process LOI appears on that first page and applicants with an access code are getting confused when they don't see an access code box and they complete an LOI even if they have been given an access code for a particular application.

  9. Sum Formatting in Tables

    When a table sums a column of amounts i.e. a currency (£), the format of the sum is simply numbers ######. Can the Sum function for the table be formatted to match the formatting of the cells it is adding up e.g. £###,###.##?

  10. With the updated applicant dashboard featuring a card/tile layout, applicants, particularly students, can face usability challenges when they’re eligible for multiple scholarships. For example, if a student qualifies for just six or more scholarships, they have to scroll to view all their opportunities.

    To improve the user experience, especially for applicants managing several grants/opportunities, please consider adding a toggle option for a condensed or list-style view. This view could reduce the size of the cards or display opportunities in a single row-based layout, allowing applicants to see more at once without excessive scrolling.

    This enhancement would make navigating the dashboard…

  11. It would be great to be able to bulk edit the a table in GLM/SLM to change cell content, visibility etc without having to open, edit and save each cell individually. It's time consuming and a tedious process. Being able to edit the table, change all the fields, and then save, would be awesome to see!

  12. As a community foundation, we fund mainly around one county in NJ. We often see folks starting a profile in GLM that are clearly way outside of our region. We've had one organization that started a profile with fake information (e.g., 555-5555 phone number, and a fake website etc). Was wondering if there is a way of limiting who is able to start a profile in our system? More specifically, we'd want to give the ability for anyone with a NJ address to start a profile, but anyone outside NJ would need to be approved before they could start a…

  13. In the SLM Eligibility Center, I would like to request a "What Changed" update screen after rerunning eligibility on an applicant. Currently the process just re-runs, and it is up to the user to determine what changes to the application's eligibility occurred. This is particularly problematic if the changes include removing/being un-matched with an opportunity, because the user must then go abandon that opportunity for the student if we do not want them to have the ability to apply without being actually eligible. So it would be helpful if there was a list of changed that popped up after the…

  14. We have 13 affiliates. Right now, we do not allow our affiliate staff to have access to CSuite to update CRM data, but we would LOVE to be able to do that. They all have to use a third party software to do so because we do not allow them direct access. Our concern is with donor privacy and we do not want affiliate staff members to be able to see contacts that have not donated to their affiliate funds. Will it ever be possible to setup affiliates users so they can only see donors that donate to their specific…

  15. I know others have asked for this, I think it would be really helpful for any foundation or funder that has multiple processes per year. Right now, our program officers are seeing an increasingly longer list of randomly-ordered processes to choose from when they're filtering. Our Archived list count is currently 38, and we've only been using GLM since 2024! Even just defaulting to an alphabetic order, as opposed to "the order in which processes are created" or whatever it is currently, would be helpful.

  16. My organization recently implemented Multi Factor Authentication for logging into GLM. Unfortunately, the only option available is to download an authentication app to verify logins. It would be helpful to have other options, such as receiving a code via text message or email, in addition to the authentication app for verification.

  17. Please allow for the ability to upload multiple files to a single upload question.

    Currently, it is only possible to upload one file per question. It would be very helpful and much more effective if the File Upload question type allowed for multiple files to be uploaded to a single upload question, as opposed to needing one file upload question for each upload.

    Alternatively, the option to upload a folder to a file upload question would be another possible remedy.

  19. It would be ideal if "due date" was changed to "payment date" or an option to select from both.

    Also, being able to chose from "payment date" (executed) to "payment confirmed (cashed/etc) would also be helpful.

  20. Currently "Internal Description" in a marketing campaign pulls existing data from the internal description on the Fund that is connected to the campaign. It would be helpful if "Internal Description" was its own field connected to the campaign itself and could be used in reports. This would enable another source of data for campaigns. Or it would be helpful to be able to have a custom field for campaigns.
