  1. When using the scheduled export report option I can add multiple users to the export but they all receive separate emails and are not aware of who received it. Support recommended we create a distribution list and use that but unfortunately that is not an option for us.

  2. Add the possibility to re-activate a previous notification. Currently we set up a notification for a period of time and once this period is over the notification becomes archived and non-editable. It would be great if we could re-use a previously made notification by simply re-activating it and setting up a new period of time of its visibility.

  3. (Re ticket #277463 - Tracking processing times)

    We have been asked to report on the length of time in review for monitoring the workload and efficacy of our staff.

    We have created a status duration report but it will not calculate the length of time in the current grant status. Yet, when we click on the status history for an individual file, it lists the length of time in each grant status including the current status.

    We basically want the numbers listed on the graph in the individual status history but in a table with all the other files.

  4. 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

  5. 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 clarification

    Requested Improvements:
    1. Earlier Release Notes
    2. Share preliminary / upcoming release notes 2–3 months…

  6. We need the ability to upload new files after previous files have been removed through the data retention policy. To support this, it may be necessary to introduce an additional retention option—for example, an option that removes the file/data but unlocks the field for new uploads, as opposed to the current setting that simply removes the file/data.

    A typical use case is annual reporting, where applicants are required to submit fresh documentation each year in the same report. In these scenarios, the field must be cleared according to retention rules, but still remain open for new uploads moving forward.

  7. It would be helpful if "Lookup - Organization and People" field type could be updated via workflow task. Currently, If you try to add this field in an "Update custom field value task" you get a message "Not Records Found".

    In a process where an organization is moved to a specific status and some fields are updated via workflow, it would be nice to also be able to update the "Lookup - Organization and People" ones.

  8. The font and text size used in the system-generated email with the subject “Confirm Your New Email Address” are not consistent with the formatting used in other system-generated emails. A fix related to this issue is scheduled for the February release as part of the ticket referenced below.

    Given this, could we introduce a configuration control for this email template—similar to what is currently available for password-reset and new-user emails? Having this control would allow us to adjust the text and font formatting as needed to meet branding or client requirements.

    Please refer to SmartSimple ticket #275411 for additional details.

  11. Currently, the "File from Local Disk" option is only available on the Message Center email. It'll be useful to have the option to select a file from the local disk when using Group Emails, also.

  12. All grantees are required to complete an application for every grant, regardless of how it is initiated. Need to be able to send grant requests that start in the donor portal in CommunitySuite into SmartSimple in a pre-approval status so that applicants can complete an application.

  13. We would like to propose that SmartSimple develops support for SCIM 2.0 (System for Cross-domain Identity Management).

    We're moving towards automated provisioning and de-provisioning of users directly from Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD). SCIM 2.0 is the industry standard protocol for this purpose, and is already supported by Entra ID as well as most modern identity and access management systems.

    Efficiency: Automating user lifecycle management reduces manual administrative tasks and minimizes delays in onboarding and offboarding users.

    Security: Automatic de-provisioning ensures timely removal of access when people leave the organisation, reducing the risk of orphaned accounts and potential breaches.

    Compliance:…

  14. We use both SmartSimple and Monday.com and Airtable at our organization, and it is so much more user friendly to build simple reports/listviews in those other tools with drag and drop and the like.

    Our power users are fine with the current reporting tool and list view builder. But it would be great to have something a little less powerful for the casual user where user experience and ease of use (drag and drop) is the priority. This would allow end users to easily build list views for what they want instead of having to navigate the current advanced search…

  15. It would be nice to have a single place to manage all translations: User Roles, Types, Status, Standard Fields, Custom fields, Submit Buttons, Tasks, List Views, Portals, Shortcuts...
    1) See, per language, existing translations and which translations are missing
    2) Batch delete of translations
    3) Export, per language, all translations in a single Excel file, reimport the same file with updated translations

  16. Use case:

    Parent tag #Training

    Child1 tag #StaffDevelopment
    Child2 tag #RequiredCEUs
    Child2 tag #TeamBuilding

    Child1 tag #VolunteerEd
    Child2 tag #Orientation
    Child2 tag #SkillWorkshop
    Child3 tag #SurveyAdmin
    Child3 tag #FocusGroupMgmt

    And so on. A search on the tag "Training" would deliver not only everything explicitly tagged "#Training" but all the child tagged-items; a search on #SkillWorkshop would deliver that plus its two child tags, and a search on "RequiredCEUs" would deliver only items with that specific tag.

  17. When running a report on an Organization Profile with address book enabled, it seems that it is only possible for the report to return one address (the one designated as primary).

    In our configuration we have allowed users to enter 1 record for each address type: Mailing and Physical. The idea is that they might have a physical location but prefer to get mail at a PO Box, for instance.

    Only the Mailing Address fields show up when a report is run with the Company dataset. It would be great to somehow get a report to display each address type…

  18. With the BI dashboards set up it is possible to drill down to the project number, however it would be extremely useful to be able to open the project directly from the dashboard rather than having to make a note of the project number and then loading the submission manager to view it.

    I’ve attached a screenshot example view – this is a drill down to hub level, and although I have hidden the project reference numbers they are displayed beneath each of the columns – a great improvement would be to hyperlink the project reference numbers and open the…

  20. You can create granular filters from the Grant Manager that pull from Organization and Contact and Activity fields, but then if you want to do the same from the Organization Manager or Contact Managers, you only have access to the specific fields on those UTAs. It would be amazing to be able to have the same filter access so you could for example pull a list of all Organizations with a Grant status: Active in 2025.

    Instead you have to generate a list of Active Grants in the Grants Manager, pull it out into excel, and then delete duplicates to…
