User Emulation - Add granular role-based privileges
At present, the settings for user emulation do not allow for granular role-based permissions. For example, there is no feature to restrict which other roles a user role can emulate. It would be incredibly useful for our staff to be able to emulate grantee user accounts. Unfortunately, we currently cannot enable this feature for them, as it allows them to emulate all other roles which includes higher-level users.
Something like "Roles this role can EMULATE" (reference attached image) would be incredibly useful.

Integration with Outlook
I just saw that there is now an option to log an email activity, but it would be helpful if that email could trigger an actual email form that could be linked with an application.

Add Filtering Capability for Level 3 Lookup Based on Level 1/Level 2 Type
The Dynamic Dropdown/Lookup Autocomplete field referencing Level 3 – Sub-Activities should include an option to filter results based on the selected Level 1 or Level 2 type.
Example:
We have a Level 3 lookup field with “Enable Dynamic Content” enabled, which references Level 3 activities. Since the same Level 3 activities can be shared across multiple Level 1 and Level 2 types, there should be an option to filter the available Level 3 activities in the dropdown according to the selected Level 1 or Level 2 type.3 votesPlanned ·

Version comparison report
To quickly compare field differences between two versions of fields in a UTA for a specific level (L1 or L2): Be able to generate a list/report/printout that lists only the fields where there is difference between the two versions. Bonus if it includes what the difference is. This would be kind of like the "Diff" button on custom fields, but it would provide a list only of the fields where there is a difference.

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.

Threaded Notes
Reporting tool doesn't (at least based on what I can see) thread conversation so you can see replies in one string in report output. We would benefit from a thread for all replies so you can order/sort by that field

Advanced Data Table Dynamic Sections Options to Hide the Plus and Minus Buttons without Scripting
Currently if columns in an XML should be updated in say a progress report, but rows shouldn't be able to be deleted or added, the +/- buttons on the dynamic section have to be hidden with custom script. Instead it would be great if there was a setting on each dynamic section to hide the +/- buttons based on status and/or role - perhaps a visibility condition like we have for edit conditions on the column? This would make initial configuration and ongoing changes easier.

Map Advanced Data Tables - Static Sections
When a static section is required in an advanced data table, clients still want to be able to query the data across records. While technically they can in a report, the only way to make this more user friendly at the moment is to create hidden fields that are populated with template formulas or try to make the section dynamic and map to L2s.
It would be much more user friendly and make configuration easier if you could just map each applicable cell to a field on the same record level. This would reduce template formulas that have to run…

Keep original formatting of notes when using @notes@ in email notifications
Currently, when using the @notes@ token in email templates, all formatting (such as line breaks, bullet points, etc.) is lost and the note appears as one large paragraph.
The idea is to preserve the original formatting of the note so that it displays clearly in the email, exactly as it was entered in the system.

We are looking into keeping line breaks in legacy notes for better readability.

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…

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.

Hide wf and status updates from Report Builder for non-admins
In system features (global settings), there’s one called “Report – Manager” that allows those roles to access the report feature in system, build reports, export them, etc.
o A subset of these features allow for wfs and statuses updates to be triggered (similar to bulk update)We have a user base that could benefit from self-service reporting, but shouldn’t be able to perform bulk CRUD operations on db.
Suggestion: have a lower perm’d “Report – Builder” that splits off the “Update status” and “Trigger Workflow” features
o This would mirror the personal list view limitations for non-admin users1 voteMonitoring Interest ·AdminJohn Fulton

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?

Improve Advance Communication and Testing Window for Platform Upgrades
Problem: Platform upgrades often introduce breaking changes with limited advance notice. Release information typically arrives too close to the upgrade window, leaving insufficient time to assess impact, migrate customizations, and test integrations. This results in avoidable production issues and reactive support tickets.
Key Gaps:
Release notes are usually available only 2–4 weeks before upgrade
Non-prod/backup instances are upgraded too close to prod
Release notes are large and hard to filter for relevant breaking changes
Opening a support ticket is the only way to get clarificationRequested Improvements:
1. Earlier Release Notes
2. Share preliminary / upcoming release notes 2–3 months…2 votesMonitoring Interest ·AdminJohn Fulton

Toggle Left-Hand Navigtion list between full width and icons
It would be helpful if the left navigation menu on records can be toggled between the full width and a compact view on a record-by-record basis. This would help on smaller screens or when adjusting the size of the window. It would allow the fields on a record have more of the useable space.

Ability to Search Lookup - Autocomplete Field Options in Batch Update
