  1. The old Rich Text Editor had the option to add headers to text without using tags. It would be ideal if this functionality could be added back into the new Rich Text Editor. This would save our users a lot of time.

  2. "Highlights" are exactly what they sound like - background color added to specific selected text.

    1. Permission L1 and L2 form types to accept highlights - application types, report types, etc.

    2. Permission highlighter function for various roles (staff, reviewer, evaluator, etc.) - Permissions should include "Create/view highlight" (user can create and see their own highlights), "View all role highlights" (enable reviewers to see each others' highlights IF this function is invoked on the highlight control menu), "View all highlights" (enable users with this role to see all highlights when invoked on the highlight control menu), and "Highlight PDF" (enable use of…

  3. 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 users

  4. It would be helpful for the Auto Archive feature to be configured per status that triggers it, so that there is more granular control over how records get archived.

    For example, despite multiple statuses being able to trigger the archival process, if they must be unarchived, they all get the same status.

    Additionally, it would be helpful to also be able to define when the auto archival process happens. For example, perhaps after a day, week, or month. Being able to define that per status add more flexibility.

  5. Improve the dynamic visuals: Many organisations use filtered data fields — for example, choosing a centre should limit the available team options to those within that centre. At the moment, the dynamic visuals don’t respect these filters. Instead of narrowing the list to relevant teams, they display every team from all centres. A more precise way to filter visuals would be valuable for many organisations.

  6. We would like to allow certain system roles to have the ability to copy profile, which we are able to do. However, after clicking Copy Profile, the pop-up window shows a section called 'Items to Copy', where the user can modify other elements they should not have access to edit including Status. Ideally, they could only see the 'Copy Profiles' dropdown and select the profile where we have defined the fields and elements that will copy over.

  7. Allow to pass a javascript variable to a ReportProperty syntax.
    It will be very useful in a SmartCheckValidation.
    Example (in SCV):
    var sID;
    var sResults = @ReportProperty(1234,exportdata,,sID)@;

  8. The Timesheet Charset feature is currently available only in the Classic Report Builder, which has now been deprecated.

    Please reintroduce this functionality in the Neo Report Builder, as it is a vital component for tracking timings, costs, rates, and related metrics efficiently.

    Justification / Use Cases:

    Time Tracking: Enables detailed reporting of user activity, hours worked, and time allocation across projects.

    Cost Management: Allows calculation and analysis of costs and billing rates based on recorded timesheets.

    Performance Monitoring: Supports productivity and resource utilization tracking for project management.

    Continuity: Maintains reporting parity with the Classic builder, ensuring a smooth transition for…

  9. When we review our staff contacts in the CRM, there is no way to see in the list view whether we have added an expiry date or not. We have to open each individual to check. The Support team told me I cannot add the expire date field as a column to the list view using list syntax.

    The expire date is accessed by going into the contact and clicking on Actions (top menu) > Edit Roles and Access.

    It would help to be able to quickly tell if a user has an associated expiry date on their role access.…

  10. We'd like to use the status group names in the status indicator on L1 for internal users, but we don't want the group name to show to those users across the system in all list views, etc. - there are other places where they need to see the granularity. The use case for the status group name in the status indicator is to get a quick, high-level understanding of the phase of our process the record is in. In list views, etc. the same users typically need to see the exact status more granularly in other places for different reasons.

  12. Currently in order to use the copy profile option in a workflow, the user that triggers the workflow must have access to the copy button under the new menu in the record. This creates extra menus for external users who don't need to see the copy button when the workflow is being run in the background. This should not have to be visible on the record for the user triggering the workflow in order for the workflow to trigger. This is something for all FHLBs.

  13. More options for colour coding

    We would like to see expanded options for colour coding in the system. For example, it would be helpful to colour code each project’s overall risk assessment in the list view — using red for high risk, amber for medium, and green for low.

    As an alternative (or complement), a traffic light–style visual indicator could be added to improve quick scanning and enhance usability.

  14. We have several groups of Organizations saved as a "Mailing List", for easily pulling the list or to send a group email. It would be really helpful to have the option to select one of those mailing lists when inviting a group of organizations to a Funding Opportunity in the Program Manager.

    The steps could be to select a radio button option: 1. Add Organization, or 2. Add Group. When selecting the Group option, the drop-down menu of mailing lists is available to select a group of organizations that then can be added to the Funding Opportunity all at once.

  15. When building a linear workflow, there's some additional config overhead that could be removed if we had a "auto-connect" feature in workflow tasks that connected first task in firing order to the next (and so on and so forth) until the end

  16. The Save & Validate button type (https://wiki.smartsimple.com/wiki/Submit_%26_Save_Buttons) only saves when there are no validation issues. We've changed the caption to "Check question status" to avoid this misnomer and have created a separate button that changes status, completes validation, and returns to draft if validation (field-level and logic) issues are present.

    Consider changing the workflow steps so the system saves first then validates and presents error messages where required fields are incomplete.

  17. Users who are in financial or compliance would like to be able to report on existing Grants, with the latest (for example), budget amendment, financial report, etc. The report will contain Grant record fields, and latest budget amendment record fields.
    Currently, using the max function in a report column, only gives the max value of that specific column.
    This function or ability will be useful for a lot of clients.

  18. As it is right now, you can select a workflow to run on each record that's returned in a report. It would be great if in the workflow you could reference the columns of the report.

    For example, you have some report that has a bunch of formulas/criteria on it and you need to send an email for each record returned by the report.

    If the workflow could reference the data in the current row by column index to populate values to the email being sent, this would open up the possibility for some interesting things as reports can be…

  19. For the new AI Analysis Tool, can we ask it to run Level 2 analysis based on Level 1 objectives and deliverables? For example, compare Question X on Level 1 (grant) with Questions Y, Z, etc. on Level 2 (report) and tell us whether the grantee has met their deliverables over the course of 4 quarters? The returning answer could be valuable as yes/no, but it will need to give us details about the evidence behind its selection.

  20. I want to enable Smart Search and keep it on at all times, but it limits list views to displaying 100 records per page. I need to be able to View All so I can mass email, batch update, etc.
