  1. 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#.

  2. A recent SmartSimple update included a change with the GuideStar Charity Check feature, where it now pulls a GuideStar Pro report versus just pulling the Charity Check report. I'm not sure if it's just us or if there are any other clients have found this to be burdensome to their processes for a couple of reasons.

    1) It now takes so much longer for the report to be pulled into the record (at least 5-10 minutes). So, it's not as immediate as it once was.

    2) We don't use all of the other information that is in the Pro report.…

  3. Many clients have fiscal years that are not calendar years. We need an easy way to set the fiscal year (e.g. 10/1-9/30) and be able to use this to filter list views.

  4. When using the batch update for a Lookup - Autocomplete custom field having the ability to search the list of options is helpful when navigating a long list of options. Currently you must scroll through the alphabetical list which is time consuming and prone to errors.

  5. 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?

  6. 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.

  7. The List View now loads asynchronously with the rest of the page, which is beneficial because if there is a slow loading List View, it is possible to escape to another page (such as the List View settings). A further improvement to the use of List Views would be to be able to cancel a List View that is currently loading. This would allow for the editing of search terms, filters, and the number of records being displayed in order to speed up searches and system navigation.

  8. 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.

  9. 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…

  11. Currently, on a Level One record, the Logs button includes two separate items: Field Change History and Workflow History. Our developer has proposed consolidating Field Change History into Workflow History to streamline the debugging process.

    This would allow developers to view data changes—such as values passed to custom fields—directly within the workflow history. If a workflow fails, this visibility would make it easier to trace what data was modified at each step, improving troubleshooting efficiency without the need to switch between tabs.

  12. Currently, SmartVersioning does not allow you to copy versions you create. You can only create new versions that pull in the base core fields.

    This makes it very difficult to iterate on yearly application form changes.

    The best practice from SmartSimple is to make changes at the Core Field level until it matches what you want, then save those changes as a version. However, this makes it very difficult to manage versions in practice.

    For instance, my foundation has three Level 1 Grant Types and every year we make revisions to the application forms. Last year I created Scholarship Application…

  13. When preparing an email in the Communication Center, the "Preview" button previews only the body, not the subject. It would be great to include the subject in the preview as it contains often variables or sslogic statements

  14. Currently, when SmartVersioning is used, it will copy over all the fields in the Core version to the new version. It does not, however, copy over the dynamic visibility. So if the dynamic visibility changes between versions, you have to manually keep all of your dynamic visibilities updated to the newest versions. This is a pain when you have to manage dozens of dynamic visibility fields.

    It would make more sense that, if a dynamic visibility is set to the Core version, that it automatically adds the new version that is stamped from the Core. If fore some reason this…

  15. We would like to review on a regular basis (1 or 2 times per year) that all users having a privileged account in the system still need such access. We would like therefore to generate a report listing all users with their current role. Unfortunately, only "Role ID" can be added to report. Not "Role Name" or "Role Caption"

  16. We need to be able to attach a payee organization on an L2 payment record that can be different from the org listed on the L1. We've had to create a number of inelegant workarounds in the record and in reporting to get payments to work for our business processes. If it worked like the standard organization field on the L1, that would be the functionality we need.

  17. 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…

  20. Just like when creating a workflow task allows updating multiple custom fields at once, the same functionality should apply to standard fields. Currently, updating each standard field requires a separate task. So, if I need to update 5 standard fields, I have to create 5 different tasks — whereas for custom fields, all changes can be made within a single task.
