Add alternative signatory to sign while using Adobe e-sign
In Adobe e-sign, a user is able to assign a signatory and an alternative signatory (proxy signatory) to the same signature spot, but only one can sign. Would it be possible to do the same in the Smart Simple platform, as Adobe eSign is used as the interface?

Field Change History and Workflow History
Currently, on a Level One record, the Logs button includes two separate items: Field Change History and Workflow History. Our developer has proposed consolidating Field Change History into Workflow History to streamline the debugging process.
This would allow developers to view data changes—such as values passed to custom fields—directly within the workflow history. If a workflow fails, this visibility would make it easier to trace what data was modified at each step, improving troubleshooting efficiency without the need to switch between tabs.

Ability to Search Lookup - Autocomplete Field Options in Batch Update
When using the batch update for a Lookup - Autocomplete custom field having the ability to search the list of options is helpful when navigating a long list of options. Currently you must scroll through the alphabetical list which is time consuming and prone to errors.

Add inline editing ability to list views
Users often need to make quick, minor updates to individual record fields where batch updates are not practical. The current Quick Edit functionality does not fully meet this need, as it involves multiple clicks and modal windows, creating unnecessary friction.
Introducing inline editing within the list view would allow users to modify fields directly, without navigating away or opening additional screens. This streamlined approach would significantly reduce effort and improve efficiency for small, targeted changes and is a feature currently offered in other software suites

Enhancements to the T2P Tool
After our first experience with the new T2P tool, we would like to suggest the implementation of the following enhancements:
- Pagination in "Changes Logged Against This Project"
The current page to view, select and manage the changes lacks pagination. This makes navigating large sets of changes difficult, especially when we need to manually select or unselect hundreds of changes.
Pagination would significantly improve usability and efficiency.
- Promoted indicator should be tied to ENVIRONMENT
We have noted several that the current behaviour is not ideal. The main suggestions would be:
--> The Promoted field should reflect the status of that change…7 votesWe plan to review pagination, search, and filtering capabilities within the T2P tool. If versioning is not being promoted, it should be reported as a defect to support.

Rich Text in Email Templates
If you use syntax like sscal in Rich Text, the text does not appear in HTML View. It would be nice if the syntax showed as part of the text.

This is a known issue that will be addressed soon via a new variable syntax. In the meantime, disable rich text editor when editing emails with sslogic.

Autoloaders - Field Change History
Field Change History should be logged whenever data is updated through Autoloader or by workflows triggered via Autoloader, to ensure a complete audit trail. Autoloader should include a configurable setting that enables Field Change History tracking, similar to the existing capability available through API functions.

Give the option to just run a Charity Check report through the GuideStar extension, rather than it pulling the entire "Pro" report
A recent SmartSimple update included a change with the GuideStar Charity Check feature, where it now pulls a GuideStar Pro report versus just pulling the Charity Check report. I'm not sure if it's just us or if there are any other clients have found this to be burdensome to their processes for a couple of reasons.
1) It now takes so much longer for the report to be pulled into the record (at least 5-10 minutes). So, it's not as immediate as it once was.
2) We don't use all of the other information that is in the Pro report.…

Add Ability to Open Level 2 in View Mode
Level 2 activities need an "Edit/View" button toggle. Currently, only Level 1 records and Organization/Contact Profiles have the "Edit/View" capability. We need this on Level 2 to enable our Program Managers to open an External Review form in View mode and then select "Edit" in the upper left to open the form for edits.

Bottom scroll bar
On the L2 view within the L1, there are two scroll bars on the right and then a bottom scroll bar below all the L2s. if there are many L2s on the list, one would have to scroll all the way down to move the scroll bar to the right. It would be nice to have the bottom scroll bar be static on the page.

We agree this should be considered. We will look at this in an upcoming release.

Org and Contact Profile Verifications
Currently to have any sort of verification process on org profiles and contact profiles being up to date one has to use statuses and workflows to push them back and forth and this is the best practice for verifying these are up to date when submitting an application.
Many clients request the ability to check whether these have been updated recently by the applicant as part of the application submission process. It would be nice if there was a way to enforce that applicants confirm their org/contact profiles are up to date without having to configure statuses. Similarly with the…

Fix the left hand column in report builder
Fix the left hand column in the report builder which tells you which row is the dataset, field, field ID etc. so if you add multiple columns and have to scroll to the right, you can still see what each row is for

Make the duplication check functionality separate form the record merge functionality
Right now, any users that have access to the duplicate organization check also have the ability to merge organization records. It's too risky to give all of our end users the ability to merge records, but we do want the duplication check functionality. Right now we required them to manually search for an organization before making a new record, but they often forget to do that. If we could split the duplication check from the merge record functionality and assign the access separately, it could make things much easier for us.

Navigation buttons on grant management application stage
For cost recovery applications. Currently in the desktop and mobile versions, the back and forth navigation arrow and next and back button are very small.
Application Stage:
Changing the left and right arrow navigation buttons for scrolling into bold arrows. In IOS and Android, it is very small; making it bold will help the user.
The NEXT and BACK buttons are on the bottom on both sides of the application page—changing this to bold will also be helpful for the SME.

Advanced filtering and search on workflows/tasks
The list view search and filter criteria far exceeds the workflow search (which only allows 1 condition). Would love to see the functionality that is currently available in UTA searches be applied to workflow and task searches

Move record locks from record level to tab or field level
Consider allowing concurrent record access as long as same field (or alternatively) same tab isn't being edited. There's good reason to have record locks for many orgs and use cases, but the whole record doesn't necessarily need to be locked.
Applicants and grantees typically wait until the deadline to submit. Suppose two staff members are collaborating simultaneously on different tabs / fields as deadline approaches. With record locks, there's a fair bit of coordination w/ applicant grantee to submit in timely fashion. If record locks were made at field or tab as opposed to record as a whole, it would…

Allow for accounts to be created/accessed with either a Username or Email Address
We are running into a limitation whereby applicants/users have a need to change their email addresses on a semi-regular basis. Researchers move institutions frequently enough and when doing so they will receive new email addresses.
This often leads to duplicate accounts if they need to reset their password and don't have access to their original email address at the previous institutions. Additionally, if they don't remember having created an account and then register under their new email address, this bypasses the duplicate check. Lastly, using the email address limits the ability to update the email address without making their account…

Make it possible to restore the little "building" icon to the portal header to change the active organization association for selected roles
We have many external users who are associated with more than one organization, and we have spent three years training them (including designing training materials, slide decks, and videos) to use the 'building' icon in the portal header bar to manage their active organization association.
The new version is not 'intuitive' or 'easy' for our users to catch on to how to chance associations. Please make it possible for us to restore the building icon and its function.

SmartFolder Direct Access Hyperlink
The SmartFolder Link custom field allowed users to add a clickable folder link directly within a record. When clicked, it opened the associated SmartFolder in a modal window, providing quick access to documents without leaving the page.
Use Cases:
Quickly access client or project folders directly from the record.
Enable workflow participants to view or manage related documents during task completion.
Streamline processes such as document review, onboarding, or audits by embedding direct folder links into forms or workflows.
Restoring the SmartFolder Link field would improve efficiency by providing seamless, in-context access to folders where related documents are stored.

Extended Ability to Transfer Files from one Upload Field to Another
In the February 2025 Update, Upload fields were updated to allow the transfer of files between Upload fields on the same form. This functionality should be extended such that files can be transferred between levels, and even UTAs. As an example, if we collect forms on an Application and want it posted to their Organization Profile, that has to be done manually right now.
