Global Search Functionality
Implement a global search feature that enables users to search by grant name, user name, or organization name. When a user is searched, the results should include:
A direct link to the user’s profile
Links to all organizations the user is affiliated with
A list of all grants associated with the user
This enhancement would streamline navigation and improve access to relevant information across the platform.
This search may be surfaced in the header and should take advantage of the OpenSearch work being done to ensure the fastest performance.

Strip HTML from Rich Text Fields on List View or Report Export
When exporting a reporting that includes rich text fields, the export includes unrendered HTML. This HTML then needs to be stripped out to make the content of the report readable.
Suggest to add an option on the report and list view export to strip html from the export. Include a tooltip to advise that this will impact formatting.

Improve Notes to allow tagging people and threaded conversations
The Notes feature is widely used throughout the system for various purposes, including recording ad hoc information, providing clarification, and facilitating internal communication. Each of these actions are done without modifying the original record.
Notes can also serve as an audit trail, used for reminders, comments, and instructions.
When notes are used as a communication tool, there are several limitations:
Notes are presented in a linear format with no option to reply to specific entries, which can make conversations difficult to follow.
There is no way to tag users that you want to assign actions to, and no easy way…

Keep Report Builder window open when saving.
Keep Report Builder window open when saving. This used to be the case but someone decided to "fix" this and close the report builder window when you save. I use multiple screens and every time I save the report builder window and open it again after viewing the report, I have to reposition the pop up window to the other screen each time.

Ability to change information in the invitation window on an application once an invited person has accepted
Once a person has been invited to an application and has accepted the invitation, it would be helpful if system administrators had the ability to edit information in the invitation window—such as correcting the spelling of a name or email address. It's common for the person sending the invitation to make small mistakes, and they often reach out to us for corrections after the invitee has accepted. Currently, the only way to fix these errors is to delete the invitation and re-invite the person, which is inefficient.

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.

Implement a Visual Risk Indicator for Records (e.g., Grants and Engagements)
Introduce a visual indicator, similar to a stoplight system, to represent the risk level associated with records such as grants or other engagements. This would allow users to quickly assess the likelihood of success by viewing the associated risk level at a glance:
- Green – Low Risk
- Yellow – Medium Risk
- Red – High Risk
- Grey – No Value/Not Assessed
Key Features:
Display Locations: The indicator should be visible on the individual record, within list views, and be accessible for reporting purposes.
Data Representation: In addition to the color-coded indicator, the corresponding textual value (High, Medium, Low, or None) must…

Ability to Hide/Sort/Freeze columns in the Assignment Grid (Reviewer Assignment Grid)
When using the Assignment Grid—specifically the Reviewer Assignment Grid—it would be helpful to have features similar to Excel, such as the ability to hide columns or freeze panes. This would make it easier to scroll horizontally on smaller screens without losing track of which application you're viewing. It would also be useful to have the option to sort by specific columns, such as Application ID#.

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.

Type Specific Captions for a Custom Field
The platform was enhanced in recent years to support different display order numbers on a single custom field by Application Type. This allowed us to finally be able position a single field in different positions on different forms. It would be great if we could also support different captions for that one field by Application Type. The only way to do this today is to create multiple fields for the same purpose and then use the value storage setting to store each discrete field to a master field for reporting purposes.

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.

Batch Update to Remove Assigned Contacts
Please allow Batch Update to handle removal of Assigned Contacts based on role. The way it functions now, a name is required in order for Assigned Contacts to be removed. Doing a bulk removal via batch update based on role alone does not seem to work.

Add cross-search pivot capability
Allow Search results let the user select one or more records and click a "Pivot" option to show a listview of L1, L2, and/or CRM records that have a connection to the selected items.
Use Case:
I want to know about funded projects completed by some (not all) of the organizations from Region 5 that use fiscal sponsors. So I filter for organizations in Region 5 of types "Charitable" and "Non-profit Using Fiscal Sponsor", and get 19 results, of which 6 organizations are of interest.I select those 6, and then select from a "Pivot" option list including "Applications" and…

Ability to use "objemail" variable in BCC line
We often include the "objemail" variable (copied from an application record) in the To or CC line when we generate an email to a grantee from Outlook. By including the "objemail" variable in the To or CC line, the email will then be attached automatically to the application record. However, the functionality does not work if we include the "objemail" variable in the BCC line. Since the "objemail" variable is a long string of characters, we would find value in using it in the BCC line so that it is hidden from recipients to avoid any confusion on their end.
