data lake
It would be very useful to have a separate reporting database or the ability to replicate the database for reporting purposes.
For us this could be useful to have a data lake that could be used externally like with Power BI. We currently run many very complex reports using SmartConnect API's against our live instance (because they are too complex for the built-in reports).
This can cause major slowdowns in the live system with some of our more intense reports.There was a suggestion regarding AI insights where John Fulton suggested a data lake. It would be great if we…

Tables in PDF generation
When generating an application summary, tables don't format properly. There's no way to control table column size. When you have more than 8 columns, longer field names get compressed to two characters. This makes no sense because these are the longer ones. For example, if you have columns with numbers and then a comments field, you can't increase the width of the comments field to make it readable.
4 votesWhen generating PDFs from web‑based application data, tables are rendered within a fixed page width and rely on automatic column scaling. When a table contains a large number of columns (such as 8 or more), the available horizontal space is divided across all columns, which can cause headers and values, particularly those with longer content, to become compressed.
While it is technically possible to influence table and column widths through more advanced configuration using custom CSS, this approach is fragile and difficult to maintain. PDF rendering engines often interpret CSS inconsistently, and small changes to data, labels, or page layout can easily break the formatting. As a result, this custom configuration solution is typically not reliable enough for dynamic application data and may introduce ongoing maintenance challenges, making it impractical for many use cases.
Additionally, from a design and usability perspective, long‑form or narrative content (such as comments) is not…

add level 1 id , level 2 id, and level 3 ids to list views / search criteria
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

Invitations - Ability to register new user under same org as Owner
While in an active SmS session, we can pass "&uselocalcompany=1" to the User Signup page URL to allow a new user to register under the session/record organization.
A similar variable/approach is missing when we send a Invite (Invitations Feature) to a new user, and the Signup page URL (Acceptance Redirect) is accessed outside an active SmS session.
Currently, if we want to invite a new user within the same Org on record, we have to configure an Org and User signup page. The new user will have to search and select the Org, and then fill in the User details…

Allow users to copy a system list view without needing edit access
I would like to be able to give users the ability to copy an existing system listview and save it as a personal listview.
Currently, a system list view can only be copied if a user has EDIT access to it. This access is only granted if you are a UTA Admin or a Global Admin.
My users are not system admins or UTA admins for Grant Manager, so they do not have the ability to EDIT or copy a system list view.
So, I would like users to be allowed to copy a system list view without needing edit…

Autoloaders - Field Change History
Field Change History should be logged whenever data is updated through Autoloader or by workflows triggered via Autoloader, to ensure a complete audit trail. Autoloader should include a configurable setting that enables Field Change History tracking, similar to the existing capability available through API functions.

System Filters Availability to non-Global Admins
Currently, non-Global Admins can only view Personal filters on UTAs/People/Org Filter dropdown. They can see and select the system filters on a list view.
Requesting an enhancement to make the system filters be role permission-based (Example: "Search Filters and Email Templates - Manager") and remove the global admin requirement.
Expected behaviour: System filters available to non-Global Admins under the Filter dropdown. See Attachment

Improvement to the API services
The current API services offered by SmartSimple are confusing in the response our team receives when calling them. For example:
- If there are missing variables in the call, it will respond a 200 - OK in almost all circumtances.
- If there is an incorrect variable (for example, report instead of reportid), the API will reply a 401 error in the body of the response - which indicates the user does not have authorization to that report, when the error is that the variable was incorrectly parsed in the URL.As our system becomes more connected with other platforms,…

AI-Powered Configuration Assistant
Enhance the SmartSimple platform with an AI-driven assistant that supports developers during configuration by offering real-time suggestions such as field types, AI tools, syntax guidance, and automated script generation. This assistant would analyze existing configurations and scripts to recommend improvements, flag potential issues, and answer natual language questions (e.g., “How do I call an OpenAI function in web page view?”).
Together, these features would create a smarter, more supportive configuration environment that reduces the time and effort for developers to research on resolutions, improves code accuracy, and accelerates development.

Show field number in batch update feature for custom/standard fields
We have multiple grant application types. When I go to batch update a custom field (the caption of which may exist in several different applications with differing selection options) the batch update feature only shows the caption for the custom field, rather than a field ID, making it difficult to differentiate which field is correct if multiple fields share the same caption.

Better integration of captions/details on image files and videos to support assessment portfolio style content.
We current use an advanced data table to collect portfolio specifics (such as medium, description etc.) and use media library. This is cumbersome for assessors (who mostly use laptops) and review applications in split screen. Issues include:
-challenges reviewing both table and image in split screen (small, challenging to navigate both). Would be better if info was combined in some way
-advance table columns can't be expanded width-wise and don't auto expand lengthwise so it is visually challenging to review longer pieces of text

Edit automatic email (confirm your new email address)
The system generates emails to people who need to confirm their email address. Example attached. For many people, it appears to be spam as there is no mention of us (HMSA, the funder). I would like to be able to edit this email to include mention of our company and an email they can reply to, so they know this email is a legitimate email.
