Login As --Removes user's existing login
I know that Login As was intended to bounce the user out of their own CSuite login when used; however, I would ask that you reconsider this approach. From a Customer Service perspective, this is a nightmare. We most often use Login As when on the phone with a Fund Advisor (and now could be anyone with portal access), to help them troubleshoot either getting into the system or working with the system. If we then have to answer any questions that require us to be logged into CSuite ourselves, the portal user has to wait while the customer service…

Portal: ACH Option
With the addition of ACH information to the portal, I propose adding a verification button to improve security and accuracy. Verifying ACH details before use is a standard best practice to minimize user errors and prevent fraud. This feature would notify the foundation when new ACH details are added, prevent unverified transactions, and reduce errors and fraud by allowing a temporary hold on banking information being used until verification is complete. Implementing this feature would enhance data integrity, security, and overall operational efficiency.

Simplify/Merge the Grant Request screens
It would be so helpful to have the Grant Request primary screen be combined with the Grant Request > Choose Type screen. There are SO many screens for our donors to click through on the new Grant Request options. We liked in the legacy portal that you had the options on the same primary page. Also, would be helpful to have the option to edit the Type buttons text.

All Record of Recurring Grants are Deleted by Fund Advisor in Portal
We just discovered with the new portal that when a fund advisor clicks "Cancel Recurring Grant", all record of the recurring grant is deleted out of the system. This is WAY too much access for the fund advisor to have. If they accidentally delete it, we can't view logs to see when it occurred or retrieve attached files to the recurring grant.
Please allow us the ability to turn off certain features in the portal (like cancelling a recurring grant) for fund advisors if we don't want to take the risk of information being deleted without our consent. These types…

Add Bulk "Edit Payment Date" Functionality to Grants Area Menu
Please add this option to the grants area menu, between "Edit Decision Date" and "Set Grant Type" (see attached image for reference).
Why This Matters:
From an accounting perspective, the grant date drives when the expense is posted to the GL. However, grants are scheduled for payment on a future date.. not the same date as a grant date. Currently, we have manually edit the payment date grant when it is created grant by grant. There is not an option to enter a payment date when a grant is created.A bulk edit option is critically needed as it would…

Custom Reports: Opportunity Tasks & Notes
We currently don't have a way to get a report that shows both the opportunity tasks and their associated notes. Without this ability, any report available leaves out critical information, such as when tasks are completed, or when users enter a completion note. Can this be added?

Expand capability of "add note to CSuite" Outlook integration
Thank you for creating the Foundant for Outlook add-in with the "add note to CSuite" feature! I would love to see the "add note" function expand to include profile Opportunities. We encourage our staff to use the opportunities area to document many types of communications, so it would be great for us to have the option to use the Outlook add-in to create a note within an existing profile opportunity when an email is sent or received (maybe this could be an option nested under the existing profile search?).

Formatting for "Amount" fields in all Content areas
Please format the "amount" field for all Content notifications to display as $#,###.## (e.g., $64,500.00). Formatting currency with commas is essential for clarity, especially with larger numbers.
I realized a similar idea was posted but later archived. https://idealab.foundant.com/forums/597718-communitysuite-idea-lab/suggestions/42438682-amount-formatting-in-content

Use organization domain for email communications
Enable sending automated emails from the organizations actual domain via the use of domain authorization rather than sending everything from fcsuite.com.
Emails from fcsuite.com are confusing, often caught in spam, and it is impossible to ensure that every online customer recognizes and properly whitelists it. This has caused significant overhead on our staff to manage missed communications. In addition, some organizations spend a lot of time and money to build their brand reputation and improve name recognition within the community. The many thousands of automated emails that go out every year should be representative of, and enhance, this investment. While…

Donor Portal Financials - Only Allow Reporting on Closed Periods
We would love to enable the option for fund advisors to run manual fund statements or view financials. However, if we enable this, they can run these on any time period, closed or open. Until we close a period, information in an open period should remain internal only and not be available to fund advisors as it is subject to change. We have donors who would get upset if they saw something change from one day to the next.
Can the portal be configured to only allow financial reporting and manual fund statement generation for fund advisors within closed periods?…

New Portal: Add "Grant to Another Foundation Fund" as a button on the Grant Request Page
In the legacy portal there is a clear way for an Advisor to search for another foundation fund to recommend a grant. In the new portal you have to click "Previous Grantee", even if the Advisor has never given to that fund before. There should be a button that says Grant to Another Foundation Fund so that Advisors know where to go to make interfund grants. This is especially important for emergency & disaster response funds and giving circles. Please make it clearer so our Fund Advisors know how to recommend grants to other funds at the foundation.

Column Spacing for Fund Statement List on Portal
On the Fund Statement page of the new fund advisor portal, the list has 3 columns -- Description, Date, and View. The Date column is much wider in the full page view and the description is too tight. Is it possible to better space those columns so that it fits better the width of the information in the column?

1099 - Add Mailing Address to Report
The 1099 report pulls the Primary address for a profile, but we need it to pull the Mailing address, the Primary for us is the Physical address. Please add a column for the Mailing Address so that we do not need to check each profile and update addresses before submitting.
I also suggest that you add a column for primary email address as then we could email the 1099s through the filing systems.
Thank you!

Indicate required fields with an asterisk
A great enhancement would be to indicate which fields are required when creating a new record (profile, donation, grants, voucher, etc.) --- such as an asterisk to indicate that a field is required. This is a well-known standard.
Currently, the only indicator is an error message when saving/posting.101 votes -
Unwanted Updates to Bank Reconcile
Please bring back a couple of features with Bank Recs!
Please allow for sorting transactions by check number again. I can now filter to only checks but they're not always in order and I don't see any way to make it so.
Allow for easier unreconciling/rereconciling. It used to be if I had to fix something from three months ago that required unreconciling the bank account, I could rereconcile with only one click. Now I have to go in and uncheck every transaction for the following months, reconcile the first month, recheck all the items for the second month, reconcile…

Portal: Display donor mailing label or recognition name instead of name
Options for how fund advisors see donor info -- When displaying donor info to a fund advisor in the portal, we should have options for how the name is displayed. In many cases, it would be great to have the Mailing Label field (e.g. J. Jackson Smith) or Recognition Name field (e.g. Jack Smith) showing instead of the Name field (e.g. Smith, Jonathan Jackson).

Toggle off closed accounts in bank reconcile
I would like to be able to toggle off the closed accounts in the bank reconciliation page. I see the sense in being able to see them sometimes, but I think the reconciliation page will become cluttered over time.

Duplicate Issue -- Accents
Within the Duplicates option, any duplicate profiles that have accents or umlauts are not able to be deduplicated from the current workflow being:
Profiles>Duplicates> then clicking the accented name.
In lieu of returning a page where you can merge the profiles, you get a yellow warning that says "Not Found". Therefore, foundations with more individuals/names with accented names are not able to fully use the dedupe functions.

Grant Notify for Internal Grants
Currently, when a fund advisor submits a grant request that is fulfilled via an internal grant (a transfer to another fund within the same foundation), the Grant Notify email is not triggered upon posting the internal transfer check.
This creates an inconsistency in the donor experience:
Fund advisors receive Donation Notify emails when their fund receives an internal grant
But they do not receive Grant Notify emails when their fund gives an internal grant
This lack of communication may cause confusion for fund advisors, especially if they are used to receiving confirmations for external grants.
Request:
Please enable the Grant…16 votes -
Fund Advisor Options - Donations and Grants Emails
We would love the option of toggling donations and grants notifications BY THE FUND for fund advisors. We add designated funds for our designated fund recipients so they can see previous year's grants, BUT we don't want them to receive the grants notification email when the grant is made, since some funds benefit more than one organization.
