  1. It would be really helpful to have the option in the various Security Matrix sections to toggle all the checkboxes on or off across for a particular field, not just down for a Role or Status.

    And as we can do with the 3 dots in the header row to "Copy Row Settings", I'd like to be able to "Copy Field Settings".

    Use Case: I have a similar update I'd like to make to a large number of new fields to remove all the current permissions and replace with updated permissions and need to go through each field and each…

  2. Consider allowing concurrent record access as long as same field (or alternatively) same tab isn't being edited. There's good reason to have record locks for many orgs and use cases, but the whole record doesn't necessarily need to be locked.

    Applicants and grantees typically wait until the deadline to submit. Suppose two staff members are collaborating simultaneously on different tabs / fields as deadline approaches. With record locks, there's a fair bit of coordination w/ applicant grantee to submit in timely fashion. If record locks were made at field or tab as opposed to record as a whole, it would…

  3. 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?

  4. We have a multi-upload field with media library enabled. That field can only accept images and videos, not documents. Please allow us the ability to accept more file types, including documents, to fields of this type.

  5. 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.

  6. Contracts and collaborative documents across the grant and partnership lifecycle are currently managed primarily through Word documents shared via email. This creates challenges with version control, including multiple document versions, parallel edits, and manual consolidation of changes. Collaboration is fragmented, resulting in limited visibility into document updates, no single source of truth, and limited auditability of changes and negotiations. In addition, the process creates administrative pressure on a small legal function, and contracts are largely managed outside the SmartSimple platform, leading to duplicated documentation and limited traceability.

    To address this, improved collaboration functionality is needed. The solution should allow documents…

  7. Prior to promoting changes in the Target environment, we see a comparison log that is similar to what we see in the desktop T2P tool. However, it was not clear that all the changes were represented in the Export package. The comparison log could also include additional information that could make it more useful like Date Changed, Time Changed, User, etc. Additionally, there is no way to export or save the comparison log, and after promoting changes, it is no longer accessible.

    After promoting changes to the target environment, we can see the Import Log, which in some cases, will…

  8. SmartSimple should allow to enable other user roles to delete from the Message Queue without making them Global Administrators. This way other users will be able to delete emails that they accidentally triggered so that they won't be mistakenly sent out.

  9. In the old version, our grant ID numbers would stay at the top of the screen as we scrolled down activity forms. Now they do not. I'd like this one feature to go back to the way it was. In the new look grant ID numbers should stay at the top of the screen as we scroll down the page.

  10. Currently to have any sort of verification process on org profiles and contact profiles being up to date one has to use statuses and workflows to push them back and forth and this is the best practice for verifying these are up to date when submitting an application.

    Many clients request the ability to check whether these have been updated recently by the applicant as part of the application submission process. It would be nice if there was a way to enforce that applicants confirm their org/contact profiles are up to date without having to configure statuses. Similarly with the…

  13. Right now, any users that have access to the duplicate organization check also have the ability to merge organization records. It's too risky to give all of our end users the ability to merge records, but we do want the duplication check functionality. Right now we required them to manually search for an organization before making a new record, but they often forget to do that. If we could split the duplication check from the merge record functionality and assign the access separately, it could make things much easier for us.

  14. Introduce a rollback feature in the new project-based T2P tool to allow reverting configuration changes promoted to test or production environments.

    Use Case:
    After promoting changes to a test environment, testing revealed issues, and a decision was made to not proceed with those configuration changes. In this case, the rollback feature would allow reverting specific changes within the current environment to its prior state. Similarly, if changes have been promoted to production and need to be temporarily undone, the rollback function would enable this.

    Implementation:
    On the Import tab of the T2P tool, capture the pre-change state before applying any…

  15. 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.

  16. 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.

  20. It is onerous to build a report to find the common name (front end name, etc) for a eventid that you find in wf history (or otherwise). I'd love to search for level 1, 2, 3 ids in list views to prevent that extra step of building report just to find a field I can search on list view
