  1. Allow the option to require two-factor authentication for Fund Advisors in the portal. Currently we can only advise they enable this feature but would like the toggle option to require it as an added security measure.

  2. It would be helpful to allow multiple types of entries in the donor portal when a fundholder is requesting a grant. For example, if a fundholder types "$25,000" including a dollar sign and a comma, an error sign comes up ("must be a decimal number".) The fundholder needs to type in 25000 for the grant to go through. Allowing $25,000 would help reduce frustration.

    According to the idea I posted previously, this idea was implemented: https://idealab.foundant.com/forums/597718-communitysuite-idea-lab/suggestions/48126044-fix-must-be-a-decimal-number-error. However, the issue is still occurring and when I spoke with the customer service team, they said that the idea hadn't actually been…

  3. Sometimes fund advisors choose to make grants anonymous on a grant by grant basis, but may not remember which ones or want to see which ones they did. If that could be a visible field on the portal - if a grant was anonymous, and allow fund advisors to filter for those that would be a helpful feature. Currently they have to request that information from us.

  4. 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.

  5. The "hide description" functionality for the Fund Advisor portal currently hides the description on both donations AND grants. Based on other available settings related to fund advisors, there does not seem to be a setting that will allow for one description to show but not the other. It would be more practical to have control over those independently (e.g. turn off descriptions for donations, turn on descriptions for grants).

  6. When you click on "Donate" from the Fund Advisor Portal left navigation, can the Giving Hub be opened in a new browser tab so the Fund Advisor can more easily get back to the Fund Advisor Portal?

    We have disabled the Login button on the Giving Hub in order to reduce confusion for our donors who are not fund holders (we have not opened our portal for donors). So we are trying to figure out how to help our fund advisors get back to the portal. Of course, we can direct them to open a new tab or remind them…

  7. At our foundation we routinely have fund advisors making multi-year & multi-payment grants. How these grants are presented in the portal is slightly misleading, as it shows the full grant commitment. When fund advisors look, it requires digging into the details to see the payment schedule. This is also true for the grantee presentation in the portal. If the non-profit doesn’t look close enough, it could appear that the full commitment was paid out instead of just the 1st payment. It would help to lessen confusion for the fund holders & grantees if these grants could have the current payment…

  8. We are thrilled to have the ability for our fund advisors to search Candid. However, there are still too many clicks in the process and it is buried. Our donors don't want to think about whether a grantee is already in the One Valley database or not. Please make Candid the default search for "search for a new grantee". Or let us choose that as a setting. If the fund advisors add an org that is already in our database, it is easy to manage through the CSuite grant request bucket. This would simplify things for our advisors.

  9. In the Portal for a Fund Advisor, on the donations tab of a fund, I see the description; however, I have to click into the Donation ID or Export to see if there's any tribute information. It would be great if there was a way to show the tribute information on the initial donation listing page and not have to click into the ID or export. Thanks for considering!

  10. 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!

  11. Add 'as of' date on the Fund Summary page of the portal so this information is included when an advisor prints their fund summaries.

  12. A donor requested that we make the CREATE GRANT REQUEST button larger/more visible so making a grant request is more intuitive on the new portal.

  13. When creating a grant request, an error is still presenting if the user enters a dollar sign and a comma in the Amount field.

    It does not error out if they only enter one of these.

    Can you strip out the characters rather than display an error message?

  14. Would really like the ability to create customized communications that would appear as a pop-up in the portal when a fund-holder logs in to share things they are working on, foundation news, funding opportunities, etc. with fund advisors.

  15. The new "Redirect Legacy Fund Advisor Portal" option goes to the email address login page. We would like it to go to the "?userpass=1" page instead so the fund advisor gets the username and password prompt to be more like their previous experience for ones who just bookmarked the old link. Can this be added as an option or as the default for when that option is turned on?

  16. In the new Portal, in Grants / Grant History, it's possible to COPY a previous external grant, but not to COPY an internal (i.e. fund to fund) grant. See attached screenshot. Why? Can this functionality be added?

  17. Add donor address type to fund/donor portal as well as if donor is active or deceased.
    Please show the type of address next to the addresses listed when you click on a donor in the portal. It would also be nice to see if this donor is active, deceased or inactive. Currently all donors even if now deceased.

    When a fund rep clicks on a donor with multiple addresses, all the active addresses are shown, however you can't tell if it is the primary address, the home address, the business address, etc because the address type is not shown.

  18. It would be great if there was a way that reports exported through the donor portal could include applied filters. For example, I tried it in the donations tab and I can apply the filter but it doesn't show up when I download a report. Thank you!

  19. It would be great if an affiliate/supporting organization that's set up with online fund advisor portal access could make internal grant requests to their own affiliate/supporting org funds. When I login in as a fund advisor and go to create a grant request on the portal and go to previous grantee or fund, it only lists non affiliate/non supporting org funds because those are marked as private so they don't show on our org's main online donation page. However it would be nice if affiliate/supporting org fund advisors could request internal grants to other funds within that affiliate/supporting org group.…

  20. It looks like our fundholders don't have a way of seeing "inactive/active" data about donors in their portal, which can cause problems when they download the list to send cultivation and stewarding letters.

    It would be great if this could be added as a column to the donor reports they can pull in the portal.

    As a result of lacking features like this, many of our fundholders have to use a separate donor CRM to support their cultivation and stewardship efforts, which is silly!
