grant catalog request attachments
Grant catalog grantee request form has option to add attachments as it relates to grant request but attachments don't publish to portal - would be great if donors could see all info provided from grantee.
3 votes10/4/2023:Grants: Enhanced the look of the Grant Catalog by adding tabs: Details, Grantees, Content. This will allow for better organization of the fields within a grant Catalog. The header box will be a quick reference point for the Catalog ID, Request Dates, Catalog Dates, and the Funding Goal.
From the Details tab, users will find the detail options and settings, grant categories, and the reporting for the Grant Catalog. Added the functionality for Grant Catalogs to allow for a Nonprofit to receive a donation amount over the Requested amount. This new option is a checkbox on the Grant Catalog Details tab, Allow Overfund Grants. Once the grant has been fully funded, it will move from the Unfunded Bucket to the New Bucket.
Grantees Tab will be house all of the Grantees information. On the left hand menu, users will find a new options to Invite Grantees to the Grant Catalog.…

Spendable Grants - assign primary advisor
Create Spendable grants should assign the primary advisor to the grant. Otherwise, we have to go in and assign this manually to every grant. These are usually very large grant runs, and things like description and account numbers are preassigned, so not auto populating the advisor defeats the purpose.
2 votesReleased on 6/2/23:
Grants: The Primary Fund Advisor for a Fund will now be added as the Grant Advisor when creating a spendable grant.

turn off grant letters
It would be good to have an option to turn off Grant Letters for clients that use GLM. The communications in grant and award letters are already being sent via GLM, therefore, we do not use Grant Letters. With the new release we now need to go into each individual grant letter to say mark sent to get rid of the grant letters in CSuite. This has created a lot of extra work if you don't want to send the grant letters.
2 votesWe implemented a grant and scholarship setting last night that you can disable grant/scholarship letters. This will remove the document bucket from your workflows. It can be found in grant or scholarship settings. You should see a release note for 1.18.2023.

Ability to Send to GLM from a custom grants report
It would be really useful to us to be able to Send to GLM from a custom report. This would allow us to filter by a custom field so that we could easily do a bulk Send to GLM and be assured that all of the intended grants get pushed to GLM and no unintended grants do.
6 votesThere is already an option in a grant custom report to send a grant(s) to GLM. After creating the report, selec the >Grant Actions drop down on left side menu.

Why can you only create a recurring grant from a fund page?
There's a create grant button on the grantee page, but not from the fund page...odd isn't it?
2 votesThere is an option to create a recurring grant from the left side menu in a Fund record. It is in the Action sub menu.

recurring grants using percentages
We have several funds that award grants annually, but are based upon a percentage available from a fund rather than a specific recurring dollar amount. It would be helpful to have the option to choose a percentage and have it pre-set; otherwise I have to enter in a new grant every year. This idea was submitted previously but it looks like it was inadvertently marked as implemented and so I am submitting again.

Deny a Grant
Once a grant is denied, it doesn't "live" anywhere besides the grantee profile. It would be nice if there were a bucket or if it showed up on the grant report, or fund grant report. Otherwise you have to remember which organization you denied a grant request.
1 voteThis status can be filtered and listed in a custom report for grants.

Please add Apply Spendable ALL/NONE checkbox solution for internal grants
For internal granting between funds, where the beneficiary fund will then be granted out immediately, please provide a Bulk Edit or an All/None checkbox situation for the resultant grants. Yes, it's very useful to be able to Create Spendable for all unrestricted funds, for example, but then the efficiency this provides is immediately negated by having to open each grant, one by one by one, to click the Apply Spendable box.
3 votes03/08/2024: Grants: Enhanced Spendable Grants to have checkboxes to all users to select which grants to create. This will allow users a more flexible workflow with spendable grants. (IDEA LAB LIVE)

Check Run hides items needing to be posted - please make more visible!
Hi - I was just notified by a grantee that they had not received their ACH grant payment. I went back into CS and found that one of my checkrun batches was not posted through and it was super hard to find! Can you please make unposted checkruns easy to spot? Especially when it gets busy, its hard to remember to go back and look through each check run to see if it was posted (especially electronic payments) - Thank you!!

Fund Advisor Grant Recommendation Search For Other Grantees
(09:10:00) Faith Krueger
When a donor logs onto the portal to make a grant recommendation and opts to use the search for other grantee function, if the fund advisor types in New York, an error message appears. If the fund advisor types NY, a search will be initiated. Is there any way to adjust the setting so that if you type New York rather than NY, the search will not be interrupted. I assume the same is for any state, e.g., NJ, SC, NC, etc.1 vote -
Bulk editing of grant approvers for multiple funds
Bulk editing of grant approvers for groups of funds: Tired of hunting through dozens or hundreds of funds to update approvers? It would be great if we could edit all, or edit a group of funds at one time to update the grant approvers for those funds.

Add grant advisor, grant letter template, service area and grant types to recurring grants
Please allow for the entering of the grant advisor, grant letter template, service area and grant type fields when first entering a recurring grant so that letters will be generated without manually editing and so tracking of service areas and grants types will be accurate. (Currently these fields are not available so must be manually entered with each occurance.)

Cancelling a historical grant (payment line)
We'd like to be able to cancel historical grants and their scheduled payments. We have scholarships that transferred over from our old system into Csuite as grants and we'd like to clean up our lists. They have installments that haven't been paid because the student quit attending school, and currently, when we click "cancel" next to the installment we receive a message that states "Can not cancel a historical payment line (maybe in the future)...."
7 votesYou should be able to cancel the historical scholarship payment lines. Reach out to support for steps top cancel these. Success@foundant.com

Sending Grant Letters in Bulk from Foundant System
Currently, you have to go one-by-one to send grant letters out. It would be helpful to be able to choose a handful of ones you would like to send out automatically via the Foundant email system and bulk send.
1 voteYou can currently print grant letters in batch from the check batch. From checks, find the grant batch and select check run. You will see an option to print grant letters for the batch. We are releasing a new enhancement to the sandbox this week, then live on December 7th, 2022 that will move the production of grant letters to a bucket in the grant area. Keep an eye on release notes.

Grant Letter Tracking
It would be incredibly helpful to have a grant letter tracking "section" within the grant itself that shows a timestamp of when the grant letter was sent and to whom.
A bonus would be to have the actual grant letter attached to that timestamp to see EXACTLY what the letter sent (with the actual date, not the automatic date that shows up when you go to see/download the grant letter at a later date).1 voteTemplates for Grant & Scholarship Letters: Moved the processing of Grant & Scholarship letters from the check area. This will allow program staff the ability to create grant and scholarship letters separate from the creation of checks. There is now a documents bucket in grants and scholarships. Letters will still be grouped by check batch so that clients can easily print or email letters in bulk. If the check batch is unposted, it will remove the batch from the documents bucket. If clients, recreate a check both letters will attach to the grant/scholarship. When emailing grant/scholarship letters, the email address will pull from the primary email on the p

email grant letters in a merge
We send a different award letters for checks and ACH payments, It would be amazing to be able to batch grants from different managers and send the letters in a merge instead of one by one.
We process a large amount every week and going back to each record is time consuming. thank you!2 votes -
grant catalog
When sending grants to CSuite for a Grant Cycle Catalog, there is no way to send the "Long Description" field, so that it appears on the Donate page for the grant. All that appears on the Donate page is the "short" Description. Perhaps the Summary field could be used instead, if there is no long description?
1 voteFor GLM clients, there is an option to send grants from GLM to the Grant Catalog in CSuite. Here is a link to the integrated grant catalog article in Foundant's support hub. https://support.foundant.com/hc/en-us/articles/18529814954135-Integrated-Grant-Catalog

Email types
Would love to have email types (like address types, where we can add our own). We have many different emails for different organizations, many of which are specific to a single thing. With email being our most frequent form of communication, it would be great to run a report on email address type when necessary to get specifically the contacts we need at each organization (like CEO or grant manager or admin....etc)
