Ability to set filters on default search results
I would love to be able to set filters for my "Search Contacts" so that when I search from the box at the top of the screen, I would see only a specific status (i.e. Client). I would appreciate not having to wade through Closed Clients, Children of Clients, Cold Leads, etc., with the same name every time I search for a client.

advanced search improvement with parenthesis and searchable quicklists
I want the ability to search with quicklists in addition to other criteria. I may have built a complex quicklist and I want to not repeat creating that all the time so I need to be able to pull those up. Also, allow for parenthesis so I can make a more specific search. I want to be able to search Status=Client & (category=active or category= inactive). Now I would have to search for (Status=Client & category= active) or ('Status=Client & category=inactive). And the parenthesis are forced. So instead of a simple three criteria search, I end up with four. And…

Advanced Search always available
Advanced Search should be available anytime the search bar is available, just to the right of the bar. Currently, on pages where only the search bar is available, I have to 'search' a blank search field, then click Advanced Search when it appears. There's space for an Advanced Search link out to the right of the search bar.

Have the same alphabetical search feature for quicklists like it has for all contacts
Within a quicklist there's no easy way to quickly navigate to the "Z" people and switch back to another alphabet for marking for bulk actions purposes. Scrolling when you have hundreds of a contact in a list is tiresome. The advance search is intimidating for our elderly employees. The alphabetical sorting system in the "Contact A-Z" tab will work perfectly. Can we please have this feature for quicklist too?

Improve contact search.
When I search for a client using first and last name, it won't show results if the contact card has a middle initial and i didn't type that in.
For example, if the contact card says, "John Q. Smith" and I search for "John Smith" no results come up.
Can we also have it show suggestions/similar names? If I don't know how to spell a name and am only off by one letter, can it suggest names like Google does?
Ex: If I search for Smoth, could it say, "showing results for "Smith" instead."
Some people have terrible names that…

Search clients/prospects based on distance from a specific address or zipcode
I'd like to be able to type in a specific address or zipcode & select all clients and/or prospects within or outside of an x-mile radius.
Currently I'm having to type each dern zipcode separately to find clients who are too far away since our city is so spread out. I cannot just type "exclude" and then the cities, because the city itself is so big that your address can say you're in the city & still be 1.5 hours away.
This would be very useful for when we throw client events, but have clients who are too far away…6 votesThe suggestion may be planned, but there is no timeline on this feature being added. This suggestion is remaining open and can continue to gather votes and comments!

Tag Group and and Client Lists - Data Export and Printing Options
Looking for a way to export (to Excel or text) and print the client list so that I can see all the Tag Groups and to which each client is assigned to. This feature would be very helpful in both current client management and new client setup. I would like to be able to look at this data in various ways and to print checklists by Tag Group and client. Thank you!

Quicklist User Specific
We should have the ability to make quicklists only show up for ourselves. I don't want to see everyone else's quicklists, which pertain to their clients. I only want to see the quicklists relating to my contacts and clients. The list gets too long and it's annoying to find the quicklist that I want when I have to sort through everyone else's lists also.

Make ALL Fields Searchable in the Advanced Search
If the fields are there, they should be searchable so that we can sort our data how we need to. I know it's a lot of work, but it would make Redtail so much more usable for marketing and servicing clients.

Primary Email
Preferred (is phone, is email, is address, is empty, is not empty, etc.)

Family name on Contacts A-Z page
Have the "Family Name" appear below the client contact name on the Contacts A-Z screen. You currently can see the client's employer name on that screen directly under the contact record name. It would be nice to see the "family name" associated with that contact so you can see all the "John and Mary Smith's" in that family from that screen.

Quicklists-"BEGINS WITH" sort feature does NOT work.
When you I request the database to return a field that "Begins With" it doesn't currently work.
ie: Contact - Status - Begins With - "Client" - will ONLY bring up "Client" and not the additional statuses we have set up such as: "Client-Spouse", "Client-CB Family/Friend", nor "Client-Child of Client".
This is a very basic database feature and it was functioning in the previous version of Redtail. Please fix this! :)15 votesThe suggestion may be planned, but there is no timeline on this feature being added.

global search
Global search needed. Your competitors offer it and it does not affect performance. We should be able to toggle from Contact to Global so it doesn't use massive resources all the time.

make the advanced search options editable like they used to be
We used to be able to edit the fields (like backspace or type in) in the advanced search. For example, contact category.
We could use the operand "begins with" and type "client" since our categories are (client - A, client - B, etc.) and it would pull all clients.
Now we have to do a separate search for each category (4) just to pull a list of our clients.12 votesThe suggestion may be planned, but there is no timeline on this feature being added.

When I click "Go back to search Results", take me down to the record I was working on, instead of taking me to the top of the list.
I have 150 records to change and I have to keep scrolling down to find where I left off. If you could auto-scroll down the alphabet and highlight the last record I changed it would make large volume micro-adjustments easier.

Searching Departments in Business Records
Names listed in the department section of a business record does not always warrant a separate record in Redtail. However, sometimes we need to search for that contact. Please extend the search capabilities to include departments within business records without having to enter a separate record in Redtail.

Add a feature to search all data ever entered in Redtail by keyword
This would function like "Spotlight" on the Mac so that you can find anything you've ever entered in Redtail by searching by any word.

Enhance the capabilities of the "Like" operand for Advanced Searches.
Currently the 'Like' operand is intended to be used with 'Values' that are being typed in, not selected from a drop-down menu. So it doesn't pull any results when selecting from a drop-down "Value" menu. Many offices use a number of values containing the same words. So, currently we're required to use the "Equal To" operand which makes for excessively long entries for search criteria with several different levels. "Like" worked with drop-down "value" menu options in previous versions of Redtail, so this should be revisited to save us all some valuable time when setting up Quicklists and other searches.
