Have private but sharable curated lists
I'd like to be able to save my own curated list that is not openly available to everyone who has access and allow to share with just key individuals. If I can pull some key information and create a list just of that topic, it would be helpful to me to share with collaborators.

Access Pivot from Cayuse. This would allow single sign on.
Currently we can access Cayuse from Pivot (if we find an opportunity in Pivot we can download it into Cayuse for submission) it would be nice if we could access Pivot from Cayuse, that way our family could use their single sign on and only have to manage one password instead of two.
2 votesThis has been completed by Cayuse. Pivot is accessible from within Cayuse.

Add sponsor to the calendar view
The new calendar view is great. It would help to have the sponsor available in the detail view since so many titles are generic (e.g., "research grants"). I recognize the need to limit the amount of content in this view, but having the sponsor would go a long way toward improving the scan-ability of the calendar results.

Allow Institutional Admins to Delete User Accounts
It would be great if admins could have more control over user accounts for their institution. Specifically, I would like to see admins be able to remove user accounts. At our institution, we have duplicate accounts, as well as accounts for users who have left the institution or are deceased.
9 votesThis is live after our July release.

Add a search parameter for "Last edited" date or "New" listings
Each listing in Pivot has a "Last edited" date but there isn't any way to search on this date. Alert results give a breakout for "Recently added in the last 7 days" but that is the only option. Searching by posted date would be useful to know what is new overall not just for a specific search.

Tracking and sharing of Conferences and Papers Invited is now supported. If Exporting is still important, please add a new idea.

Select which (and how many) opportunities display in a newsletter from a curated list
The newsletter feature is very helpful, and attracts attention. By default it displays 25 opportunities in alphabetical order. These 25 displayed items may not be the most prioritized in the list. The ability to select a 'Top 10' items to be displayed in the newsletter would help to further customize this tool.

Intermediate Proxy Admin Feature for Support Staff
Administrative personnel need the ability to help faculty in their respective areas or departments, to help faculty update their profiles on an on-going basis. Currently, Pivot offers this as an admin feature on a global scale, where anyone with this capability can make changes to ALL our institutional accounts. Can this feature be modified to narrow down the scope of access?
Please refer to InfoReady's proxy feature. It has been extremely useful to us. Can you apply something like that to Pivot?

Enable multiple curated lists to be sent using the Newsletter feature. Current selection is limited to one list
We want to send our Healthcare Sciences faculty a monthly newsletter using opportunities from 2 or 3 curated lists, all at once. Can only select one curated list to send at present, and want to avoid sending multiple newsletters by discipline at least for right now.

Add the option of rolling deadlines or no specific deadline for internal funding
Some internal funding opportunities accept applications year round. Currently, the only option is to select a set date but once the set date is passed, the funding opportunity disappears. Instead of constantly projecting the date or resetting it, it would be helpful to offer the option of setting deadline to "Open or year round"
12 votesThis feature will be live with our December 2018 release (currently scheduled for Dec 4). Stay tuned for release notes for more details.

Add Fields in the Internal Funding
An 'Eligibility' field would be helpful. Also update the citizenship/residence drop down to include "Other" or "Not Required"

Add the ability for users to add items to the deadlines dropdown list
Internal Funding - include the ability to add types to the dropdown list in deadlines. (i.e. items that are specific to the institution.) For example, prior to the grant application, we have a required deadline for faculty to create a Box folder within the Office of Sponsored Programs Box so we would want to have the option to select OSP Box deadline instead of selecting Other, which is generic and not specific enough.

Add CFDA numbers or other Grant identifiers to Export reports of tracked opportunities
When we export reports of tracked, active, or saved opportunities we would like to see the Excel spreadsheet include CFDA numbers or other Grant identifiers. We think this might help us match opportunities found in Pivot with what opportunities researchers have applied for.
7 votesCFDA numbers do show up when exporting to Excel. Use the “Select your fields” option and then select CFDA to include in your report.

We would like to have our logo in custom branding link to our homepage
We have added our logo using the custom branding functionality in Pivot, but we would like to be able to add a custom link so that clicking on the logo would take users to our homepage.
4 votesBy default the logo now links to the Pivot home page when in the Pivot application. (It does not link from alerts or newsletters) Please comment or open another idea if more specific functionality is desired.
