Overview
Use the Organization Profile and Organization Search features to integrate official records of charitable and business organizations into your program's workflow.
Organization Profile connects organization data to an applicant. Applicants are responsible for inputting the EIN (Employer Identification Number) or UEI (Unique Entity Identifier) for their organization.
The Organization Search feature prompts an applicant for EIN or UEI information. Submittable then searches through government databases for the correct organization and links the correct organization to the applicant. Organization Search is enabled at the Project level.
As the program administrator, you have the option of making a successful Organization Search a requirement before allowing a submission. An Organization Search is considered successful if the applicant enters a valid identifier into the prompt and selects an organization.
Any administrator with Level 3 or higher permissions can enable the Organization Search feature. Once enabled, all applicants will see the Organization Search.
Enable Organization Search
To gather an applicant's organization information, you must activate Organization Search in the program's options.
Select Programs from your Submittable home page, then either Create a New Project or select an existing project.
In the General Settings tab, select Allow organization search to start gathering the applicant's organization information.
If you want to require a successful Organization Search before accepting an applicant's submission, select the Require applicants to select an organization option.
If you select the Require applicants to select an organization, select the Registration Criteria. This sets what database and what identifier the program will accept from the applicant.
IRS Tax Exempt will use an EIN search only for charitable organizations in the Candid database.
SAM.gov will use a UEI search against the SAM.gov business entities database.
EIN or UEI will accept either value and search against both databases.
Once enabled, all applicants will see the following prompt when they begin the submission process:
Applicant prompt for optional Organization Search
Applicant prompt for required Organization Search
