Revert to old workflows - new design HORRIBLE and NON FUNCTIONAL
Lots of thoughts on the new design, but please, please let me access the old workflows. The current design
1. Blocks out 1/2 the page so that the high level task can stay displayed on the left, why? NO purpose or benefit only detraction.
2. Because of #1 The WORST part - each step/box at the top in each step of the workflow displays maybe 2-3 words. Only way to read the step is to go into the step and scroll over. HORRIBLE. The name of the step needs WAY MORE SPACE
3. And all the steps are spread out…58 votes -
prioritize workflow
Be able to prioritize workflows instead of just going by due dates. If we have 10 workflows due this week, we want to make sure we get high priority ones done first even if there are low priority due dates.

In the Workflow list, if there are more than one linked contacts, show names, not "2 contacts"
When there are more than one linked contacts to a workflow, list their names in the task list. How does it help to see "2 contacts"? under the names? And they do not alphabetize if you sort by contact.

Bulk Complete Workflow
I can currently bulk delete and add workflows and add notes or tag groups to groups of people in a workflow. However, I cannot bulk complete a workflow step or a workflow task. We have workflow tasks that can be completed in bulk by adding tag groups. It would be wonderful if we could then bulk complete that task and step.

Quickly reference contact card from within workflows
We need a quick access overview of the linked contact's contact information when working inside of workflows!
There are times when working inside of Workflows that we need to contact a client. Currently, you have to click 3 times through 2 pages to access the client's contact card from within a Workflow. This process could be greatly reduced. Perhaps you could click on the linked contacts hyperlink inside a workflow, and that screen could hold the contact card for all linked contacts?
There just needs to be a better way to handle contacting a client from inside a workflow.

Workflow Summary Notes
My team would really like to be able to export the summary notes for a workflow or be able to directly print them, this way we can use them in meetings away from the office or attach them to reports, and currently it doesn't seem there is any way to capture that data without copying and pasting it all into a word document.
It would also be nice to change the category of each step note as it is added or change a step category rather than only being able to change the category of a workflow, as some workflows…

link workflow task to activity
It would be wonderful if you could link an activity to a workflow task. For example, if the workflow task was to update MoneyGuide Pro, your activity linked would document all changes made and what was done. This way it posts individually to the client instead of only posting in notes of the client when the WF is done.

"Clone" Workflow Step
It would save a lot of time to be able to clone workflow steps and then revise to reflect the changes I need rather than having to start over when many of the tasks within a step are the same for multiple steps.

Workflows - UNDO - this is NOT answered yet.
There is the option on Tasks to "complete" or "un-complete". This needs to be available for Steps as well as Tasks.
The answer given previously was "make it an outcome", which doesn't suit the need, and is extremely labor intensive. We just want to be able to fix a mistake - you clicked it was done, but it isn't - open it back up.42 votesMore information is needed internally before a decision can be made. Nothing is needed from Redtail clients at this time.

Add the ability to add Notes to a step without completing it
At this time, the only way to communicate with EVERYONE associated with a Step is to complete the current Step, add notes in the window that pops up, and have an outcome that recycles back to the current Step. This means that all of the Tasks within the Step that have already been completed are refreshed.
We should be able to put in Notes on a step that can be shared with everyone without having to redo work all over again (or at least assign work all over again).

Pop up box that asks you if you want to proceed if you don't hit save button on workflow
Pop up box that asks you if you want to proceed if you don't hit save button on activity/workflow.
Sometimes we click out of the pop up box before we hit the save and all the work is lost.
If there could be a notification box that asks you to proceed, that would be best.

Add "On Creation Date" to the Step Due in a workflow Step.
When you create a workflow, you are given the option of setting the Target Date a some point "After Creation Date". So, if you set it to 0 days after creation date, the workflow sets the target date as today. HOWEVER, if you set it up that way and then use automation to trigger it, and that automation triggers when an activity is set and the condition is appointment, EVEN THOUGH the workflow target date is set for today, the workflow target date is set at the future appointment date.
This makes it impossible to have a workflow automatically trigger…

Printable Overview of Workflow Templates
I am writing this at the time of the new workflow template editor update (2021.05.17). The old template editor is what I would use to get screenshots of workflows to print off and discuss in a meeting with our team. I would use screenshots of the outcomes list and the template (because it showed the full text in the task descriptions in an organized format) to compile a document we could cut apart, rearrange, and discuss if the workflow accurately guided process. The new layout is more compact, but the new text box style with the scroll bar hides some…

uncomplete workflow tasks from completed step
We have multiple people in our office completing tasks and one individual incorrectly completed a final task in a step. There should be a way to uncomplete that task even though the step is complete

workflow
Bring back the old method of editing workflows.
The new method to modify workflows is very difficult to use. You cannot see your entire workflow as a whole while editing like you could before. You also have to collapse every single step and every step task unless you want a 20 page long stream of steps and tasks. If you want to move a task around you have to drag it, stop, scroll a little higher, drag, stop, scroll a little higher, etc. That makes it difficult to move stuff around in an efficient manner.
It used to mirror what…

Collapse/Expand All options for Workflow Template Editor
Writing at the time of the new Workflow Template Update (2021.05.17):
The new system for editing templates is much more compact than the previous system and it could really benefit from a way to collapse all of the tasks or steps rather than clicking them all individually. Our office works with some very long workflows and it would help with scrolling and finding the steps/tasks we'd like to edit.

Generating the next step/task in a workflow.....
Instead of showing ALL the steps/tasks due on the calendar, a step/task should not show up on the calendar until the previous step/task is completed. Example: Step 1/Task 1 (marked completed) then the next Task 2 within the Step 1 is generated. Once all the tasks have been generated 1 at a time and completed then the Step 2 would generate. That way the calendar is not bombarded with so many tasks. This is especially helpful when so many steps/tasks are generated for a multitude of clients.
