  1. It would be really great if the email builder/preview, allowed you to toggle between desktop and mobile views, use intuitive merge fields (as opposed to the variables), and send live test emails to specific addresses (like to yourself and/or a team member) to ensure the formatting is perfect.
    The live test email would allow you to select a particular person or organization that it would pull the merge data from for the preview, without sending it to them and while allowing you to see it in your own inbox.

  2. It would be really great and significantly more convenient if "System Email Templates" lived under
    Menu-->Communication-->Email-->Templates
    instead of under
    System Admin-->Global Settings-->Communications-->System Email Templates

  3. The new file preview feature under multiple file upload field is very helpful, but users can still download files, and this option cannot be disabled.

    We suggest adding a role-based control to allow administrators to restrict file downloads (e.g., for volunteers or external reviewers, or in some cases, internal staff) while still allowing file preview.

    This way we can improve security, reduces risk of file being downloaded to user's own devices, and better supports data protection.

  4. Allow System Admins the ability to access & use Config Mode in Organization and People records. (Currently, they can access it at the Grant level.)

  5. We have recently build an integration with our eSign provider (not natively supported by SmartSimple), using workflow tasks to send the contracts for execution, updating signee data on contracts already sent to the eSign platform, and monitoring via a Scheduled report the current status of the contract once per day.

    However, there is one webservice from eSign platform that we have not been able to use although we really wanted to... Which is to get the signed file from the eSign platform to SmartSimple. This is due to the WF Type Task Web Service - RESTful Request not supporting the…

  6. Hashtags are a nice way to simply categorize records in SmartSimple. I think we can deliver more value if we can provide a UI for setting a hierarchy of categories and sub categories that allow you to categorize applications and also add any number of related sub categories as well.

    It would also be nice if this could be an AI-based feature that allows for automatic categorization dependent upon the application data. Categories and subcategories should also be addable to list views and reports.

    Value Add: This would allow you to create list views and reports that filter by categories…

  7. Improve the list view in the reporting module so that the listview is more like the advanced search list views on UTAs and can be configured locally. It should allow sorting and filtering on whether export is enabled, Category, UTA association etc

  8. Certain UTAs contain personal data that should only be visible to the user themselves. Policy field sets allow us to cope with that through the front end but adminsitrators / report authors can still report out that data and we need to stop that happenning. Perhaps the UTA security or policy field set rules can apply to the report module.

  9. In French, there should be a space between a preceding word and a colon. For example, "Last name:" in English would be translated as "Nom de famille :"
    However, when I add a space after "famille" in the translation field, the system does not save it and places the colon right beside the word famille, e.g., "Nom de famille:".
    How do I get the correct punctuation in French with a blank space before a colon?
    Support suggested I raise this issue in the Idea Lab.

  13. System administrators cannot see where list views are set across the portal / dashboard. This creates a time consuming and tedious process where administrators need to tab through each list view on a dashboard to see where it's exposed before making a change.

    Example:
    1 list view is configured for 3 different portal components. In looking at the list view, an admin cannot see where the related portals are. 1 of the three portal list views needs an update, but the admin needs to go chase down and split out views so information is not inadvertently exposed on the 2…

  14. When the autoloader runs, it currently loads the data as it receives it as long as the data matches the field format. We are experiencing ongoing challenges because users are uploading data files with the Autoloader that do not meet our business rules and cause issues to downstream systems. Is it possible to add a feature that allows us to define validation rules for an autoloader file? so we can reject the data before it is loaded into SmartSimple?

  15. It is not currently possible to delete/withdraw an invitation if it has been declined.

    This causes confusion for some of our applicants, as they don't want the record of the declined invitation included with their submission.

    I understand it may be useful to retain that data in some instances, but it's not even possible for a system admin to remove these at the moment.

  16. Allow for a field or file that is uploaded on an application to be automatically transferred to the associated organization or contact records. Currently we manually move W9 files to the organization record for easy access by all internal users.

  17. When adding shortcuts to a portal, it goes to a pop up list of shortcuts and target checkboxes are ticked and then the user clicks OK to confirm. The shortcuts are added to the list in the portal but need an additional click to once again confirm the new shortcuts and save them to the portal. This is an extra step that seems unnecessary since we already confirmed which shortcuts to add.

  18. We have received user feedback that the standard system message sent when a user is tagged in a Note is difficult to read. Users want italics or quotes to visually distinguish the Note content from the rest of the message. Users would also like the URL to be a clickable link so they can navigate to the Note directly from their email. If SmartSimple cannot update the standard system message, provide the ability to configure a custom template here (without creating a new workflow, which is what Support suggested).

  19. We have multiple grant application types. When I go to batch update a custom field (the caption of which may exist in several different applications with differing selection options) the batch update feature only shows the caption for the custom field, rather than a field ID, making it difficult to differentiate which field is correct if multiple fields share the same caption.

  20. Add a Slack integration for SmartSimple so teams can receive automated messages when action is needed, such as approvals, tasks, updates, or missing information. Messages could include basic details, a link to the SmartSimple record, and buttons like Approve or Reject. Users could take quick action directly from Slack, while SmartSimple saves the response. Admins could choose which workflows send Slack messages and who receives them. This would help reduce email, speed up decisions, and make it easier for users to stay on top of important SmartSimple tasks.
