Response Comparison Tool

View and export a comparison of responses across multiple intake form entries.

The response comparison tool allows responses across multiple intake form entries to be compared on one page. The Response Comparison tab is available when viewing data for a specific intake form on the grantee portal intake form dashboard. This is often used when completing an internal review of submitted intake forms. 

Data collected in standard fields cannot be imported into GivingData, so this data cannot be accessed via a super search, a report, or through other features or functionalities. The response comparison tool allows responses to standard fields to be compared across multiple applicants/grantees.
