  2. Add More Marital Status Options

    Right now there are only 7 Marital Status options: Divorced, Life Partner, Married, Separated, Single, Unknown and Widowed. I would like Redtail to add "Divorced and Remarried" and "Widowed and Remarried" as two new options. If there is a change in divorce law, we'd like to filter our clients and send correspondence to any client who is divorced or has previously been divorced, but Redtail only allows the marital status of a divorced and remarried person to simply be "Married". Additionally, a widowed and remarried person often has different estate planning goals we should be sensitive to (i.e. leaving inheritance…

  3. Set Roles when Creating new Contact

    When adding a new contact, we can set the permissions (which is a great addition, thank you!) but you can't set the roles without going into the contact page. It would be useful to be able to set the roles there in the create screen because we have workflows that automate when a new contact is added. Right now they default to one person, because if the workflow automates and the roles aren't set, it assigns to no one. If the roles are set in the contact creation screen the the workflow could be assigned to the appropriate person based…

  4. Zendesk

    I hire Redtail as my CRM vendor. Redtail outsources the helpdesk ticket system. Very odd that a vendor that embraces seamless integration requires me to have yet another username and password to follow their tickets. Especially when Redtail offers single sign on for other outside vendors. Please integrate.

  5. Opportunity Tracker: Bulk Actions

    It would be a great feature to be able to select multiple opportunities via a checkbox next to the open opportunity and then select a Bulk Action after you've selected. Imagine having 21 open opportunities that are all named "schedule appointment". You could select all 21 and select a bulk action email report. Or at least open the feature to select multiple opportunities and then be able to "send to search". Then from the search report be able to select the contact records you'd like in your Bulk Action. I think this feature for opportunities would be a fantastic idea.…

  6. account udf bulk add

    I track RMDs for clients on an account level and a contact level and I have to manually add each account level UDF every January. This should be accomplished by a bulk add. And of course to do that it means that we will need an advanced search for the account level as well as contact level (So I can search for open IRAs and get open IRAs instead of closed IRAs and open something else) which is how the current advanced search works.

  7. membership automatic set up

    It would be nice if some of the membership relationships could be set up automatically when the membership is intuitive. Maybe an option or check box that says, "would you like to automatically add this relationship to: bob brewer, jenny jones and michelle miller". Lets say steve brewer, bob , jenny and michelle are all brothers and sisters; kate brewer is steve's wife . I add mike brewer as steve's father. It would be nice if redtail could figure out that mike is also bob, jenny and michelle's father as well as kate's father-in-law. This issue gets compounded when you…

  8. Be able to Assign colors on the Calendar by Name of the person completing task

    Color code the calendar by being able to assign a color to each person in the office. That way when you are looking at the calendar each person has their own color for their own task

  10. Ability for team members to see when someone is working on a task

    When a task is assigned to a team, it would be very nice for all users on that team to be able to see when a task is being worked on by another team member. This way 2 team members do not both work on the task simultaneously

  11. activity from email, email from activity

    Users need to be able to easily create an activity from a client/vendor email.

    Typical day - we will receive dozens of emails with requests for appointments, meetings, cash, service, change forms, along with many other requests.

    Why not make it easier to click two or three buttons to create an activity from an email, add a quick note and assign to a staff member with deadline and priority.

    Also - while on the subject, make it easier to create an email from an activity too.

  12. Client review dates should NOT auto change

    This is, literally, the MOST IMPORTANT thing that advisors need to stay on top of for compliance purposes. In our firm, MOST reviews do not necessarily happen exactly on time. There are all sorts of reasons for this. The "next review date" should NOT CHANGE AUTOMATICALLY.

    This should cycle on an annual (or quarterly, whatever is decided basis) based on a MANUALLY entered "most recent review" date. Then, I should be able to run a report so that I easily know which reviews are overdue.

    This is absolutely CRITICAL. C-R-I-T-I-C-A-L.

    There are so many ways to go about it -…

  13. Home address vs. other preferred mailing address

    Family Head contact shows a home address as well as a PO Box which is flagged as the Preferred Mailing Address. When I search this last name and select the spouse to print a mailing label, the home address is autofilled on the label, not the Preferred Mailing Address. The Preferred Address should be the address autofilled.

  14. Email reminders for when activities are due

    When activities that were scheduled in advance come due, the creator of the activity should be able to get a reminder email sent to their inbox to notify them. Similar to a calendar reminder on your calendar for an appointment, activities should provide an outside reminder to an email.

  15. Provide a link to client to schedule a meeting during a block of time on calendar

    Allows us to create a link to send out to multiple clients allowing them to choose a time slot during a specific period of time to schedule a meeting. Once selected that time slot would disappear from the options to the other clients.

  16. Automation condition based on "activity Template"

    If I am using a specific activity template like a "discovery Meeting Template" or an "annual Review Meeting template" I feel like we should be able to automate the corresponding workflow template for that activity template as well.

    Selecting the workflow in the "do this action" tab already exists. It is the "Activity Template" that is missing from the "if conditions true" tab.

  17. newest update - can't view contact names while looking at calendar unless you hover over "2 Contacts"

    The newest update for July 2024 changed how you view and print the calendar. We want to be able to look at quick glance who is scheduled for an appointment. We also print a calendar daily and now have to manually type the clients names to be able to view who the appointment is with. Please change back or allow users to choose how they want to view the calendar.

  18. Automation based on UDFs/Dates

    It would be great if we were able to set up automation triggers based on if a UDF date field expires. For example, if we want to do a cash flow review every 2 years and we have a UDF that shows the date of the last cash flow review, it would be awesome to have an activity created once the last cash flow review hits the 2 year mark.
