email grant award letter
The notes that are automatically saved to grantee profiles when a grant award letter is sent do not include emails that were cc'd, nor is the attachment included. There is a link where a file could be attached, but it gives me an error and I don't want to have to manually attach grant award letters to each note on a grantee profile anyway.
When emailing grant award letters from CSuite, we have added a note in the Other Detail field on grantee emails that they are for grant notifications, but this detail isn't available as a field to pull…

grant request cart
We'd like to recommend a couple of additional customization options for the online portal:
1). It would be great if we could customize the text of the Grant Request "Description" box (specifically, we would like to be able to include instructions about what people making Grant Requests should include in that box. Right now we have some "Portal Content" text that provides those instructions, but we feel the instructions would be followed more consistently if we could change the name of "Description" -- to utilize this change effectively, we would also like to see a character limit for the box…

"Hand Deliver Grant Checks" as an option for funds
A local organization does not get mail from us, for reasons that are not known. These missing mailings include checks. We have documented this situation for more than a year. Their profile is now set to Do Not Mail, but an option to Hand Deliver would make it much clearer that all letters need to go by hand.

Hand Deliver Only
For grantees who have recurring issues with mail, how about a Hand Deliver Only option that is right up front on the main grantee profile page? We have an organization that does not get checks in the mail from us on a regular basis. This option would make it clear what the delivery mode is without a need to read or refer to a note.

Additional payment types when creating a batch of checks
Similar to where you can check a box to include blank default payment types to populate when you create a batch of checks add an option where you can select alternative payment types.
Currently if you want to pay with a check for something that is typically electronic or ACH you have to change the default payment in order to create a check and then remember to change it back.3 votes -
Loan Creation
When creating a new loan, it would be helpful to be able to create one loan but assign it to multiple funds. For our organization, it is typical for several fund advisors to participate in the same loan so it can be time consuming to have create separate loans for each fund rather than one "parent loan".

Alumni Designation
The “Alumni” designation is a great option for adding education information to a profile. However, it would be better if we could rename it to “Education,” since the current label doesn’t really fit a community foundation’s needs.

Improve Scheduled Report Frequency
We have had instances where we're expecting a scheduled report to be sent on a specific day and it does not get sent until a later day. If CSuite is unable to send the automated email due to a system issue or Internet outage, it will send the next available day and will also adjust the schedule from that point forward. We then have to manually change the "Next Send Date" for those scheduled reports so they're back to sending on a specific day. This is especially problematic for Weekly reports.
Instead of the schedule auto-adjusting on CSuite's end based…

Grants request through the Portal that exceed the fund balance and available cash.
The donor submitted grants request through the Portal that exceed the fund balance and available cash.
Currently, there is no setting or hard stop in place to prevent a grant request from exceeding the available cash. When a request is created that surpasses the total available amount, the system displays a warning message indicating this—but it still allows the request to be submitted.
I recommend implementing a control that automatically subtracts the available cash each time a grant is made, ensuring that future requests cannot exceed the remaining balance.

task due date
Add / Create Task - can the due date default to today's date, keep option to change date? A lot of tasks are done for daily activities, so why not save time for the due date?

Grant Catalog Catagories
Please make the grant categories/grant types optional for populating at the top of the catalogs. They push down the catalog too far and the search bar is fine for navigating. Please and thank you.

Please change the color of alerts back to red. The orange color doesn't catch the eye as well. Thanks.

Can't Keep up with Software Updates!
While we appreciate your software and all the grand things it can do, we have found it difficult to keep up with the rate at which you make changes. We are a small office of three people. We struggle keeping up with our day-to-day tasks, let alone keeping up with software updates. We are so far behind on your software updates--we just can't keep up. Can you consider doing these on a broader calendar scale? Or maybe implement them based on changes more for 'big offices' vs. 'little shops' ?

prim date
Prim Date on addresses needs to be a searchable/filterable field by date in Custom Reports.
For large mailings that may be going out in the future, Foundations using professional external print vendors for large mailings will often need to provide an accurate data list of addresses well in advance. If the future mailing date would affect the addresses pulled (e.g. knowing that the future mailing date will have toggled many Prim Dates to a different address than is currently Primary), there is no way to actually search or filter or BULK report for Prim Dates.
Address Type Name is one…

Uploading documents in portal for fund advisors
Love that I'm able to upload documents, such as newsletters, with visibility in the portal for online fund advisors. The only limitation is that it must be done for ID of every fund group (ie: scholarships, donor advised, Agency, etc). It would be really nice to have a global option to upload a document (and potentially a notification) in 1 transaction that impacts all funds. If that exists and I missed it, please share!

crm
When running an opportunities report or viewing opportunities, it would be beneficial to be able to filter the opportunities by stage. Viewing and reporting by stage can facilitate progress updates and help identify categories/levels of donor engagement when used for moves management.

Journal Entry Approval - Auto Advance
It would be great if journal entry approval worked like voucher approval by auto-advancing to the next je requiring approval!

Donation Advisor Salutation please add tax receipt template fields.
We send matching gift acknowledgement letters to the donor whose gift is being matched. Our current fix is their full name and then we must remember to edit. Someone else proposed this idea two years ago and it was archived.

Attachments to Beneficiary Grants
The ability to attach documents to recurring grants is great but it would be nice to be able to attach documents to beneficiary grants as well. We process a large number of beneficiary grants and it time consuming to have to attach all the necessary documents to each grant every time we process those grants.

Add Grant Approver and Voucher Approval to Bulk Edit in Reports
Currently you can only add/delete grant and voucher approvers in Funds > Grant Approver or Voucher Approver. Clicking into the name of an approver brings up a list of every fund in the system, but you cannot filter it by fund group or any other filter.
I suggest just adding Grant Approver or Voucher Approver in the Bulk Edit menu on Reports! Then we can create a report that filters funds to our desire and then change Approvers there.
Looks like similar request was suggested in 2021 but archived from lack of engagement: https://idealab.foundant.com/forums/597718-communitysuite-idea-lab/suggestions/44612853-add-fund-groups-to-grant-voucher-approval-process
