Screens use Backed's default words. If your organisation has renamed any of them under Settings > Organisation > Terminology, you see your own words instead.

Find applications faster

Filters on All Applications now also narrows the list by Funding Category, Assessor, Status and Submission date, and each works together with your search.

  • Tick one or more categories, or No funding category for grants without one. Categories appear if you can also open Grants.
  • Choose an assessor to list only the applications assigned to them, at any stage of the assessment.
  • Under Submission date, enter a first day, a last day or both. Both days are included, in your organisation's time zone.
  • The filter button shows how many filters are on. Clear filters keeps your search and shows the full list again.

See The applications list.

Follow each grant's progress

  • Counts on a grant's Applications tab. Started, Submitted and Complete sit at the top of the tab. Complete is the submitted applications as a share of the started ones. The counts include only applications you can see, and leave out withdrawn and test applications. While the grant is open, the line under them says when it closes, for example Deadline closes in 3 days.
  • Filter a grant's applications. The tab's Filters now has Assessor and Submission date too, working as they do on All Applications.
  • Grant cards say Published. On your Dashboard, a grant taking applications shows Published (it used to say Open) with its closing date, or Always open. A published grant that has not opened yet shows the date it opens, for example Opens 1 Apr 2026. See Getting started as an administrator.
  • The first page's answers can stop a submission. When an applicant's answers on the first page of an application form hide the rest of the form, the application can't be submitted. Submit tells the applicant that their first-page answers mean it can't be submitted, and the application's page tells you the same. See Applying for a grant.

More in an application's history

See Application History now also lists each message posted in the application's conversation, in time order, as Conversation message with the role of the person who posted it. The message itself stays in the conversation. You see these lines only if you can view that application's conversation. See An application.
