Ability to archive a UDF
We use UDFs for our RMD so we will have one for each year. While that is very useful during the year and immediately following it would be nice, for purposes of keeping lists clean, if we could archive a UDF. What I envision this doing is it being removed from the list and anyone that has that UDF has a note recorded that they had it and what the udf contained for them.

UDF Value Appearance
When we're typing in the UDF sections; whether in contacts or accounts, it would be great if the breaks we enter would correspond with what is shown after the UDF is saved.
For instance, I use account UDF's to track RMD's. So mine might look like this:
2017 RMD amount for account = $***.xx
2017 RMDs total = $xxxx.xx
Total 2017 Distributions = $xxxx.xx
However, when I save and close the UDF, it doesn't read the same on the screen. The page breaks basically don't exist, so the note doesn't have lines where I want them to be. It would…

when you update the address in Schwab it should automatically update in Redtail.
When I update the address in Charles Schwab, it should automatically update in redtail or at least the following day. Clients change addresses a lot and when I have to update it in Schwab and then go in an update in redtail it becomes cumbersome.

Reformat the Contact Card to Allow Cutomization
Add ability to click and drag sections to rearrange how they are positioned on the contact card (tailor to user preference); also add ability to save contact card layout template
For example: Would like to have UDF's show at the top of the page when on a contact card instead of having to scroll to the bottom and have a skinnier note section that scrolls on the right versus left.

Add tab for "Professional" on main Contact record
On a client's main Contact record, below the Activities and Notes, there is a section with tabs for Keywords & Tags, UDFs, Finacials, etc. This section should include the Professional section, but it does not. To access the Professional section, you have to click into Know Your Client, then Professional.
Please add a tab for the Professional section on the main page, next to all the other sections.

Fix Contact Photo
Allow us to upload an image that is not square, we previously would upload all client Driver's Licenses, and crop the photo! It was great, we had a Client photo for everyone and quick access to all their DL info. It now cuts off the edges since no State has a square DL. Please fix this, this is a deal breaker for me.

Add 'Engaged' to Marital Status
Allowing us to record when a client is engaged, though not a legally binding status, lets us prepare to have a conversation around merging assets and the other financial impacts of marriage.

Important Information Report
It would be great to have an "Important Information" added to the Reports under Common Tasks. There are times that we want to print out the Important Info for a client review, but have to copy and past.

Would it be possible to see name of spouse or family name next to a contact name in selection list?
When selecting a second contact (usually spouse) to link to an activity or note, and there are multiple contacts with the same last name, it is hard to determine who is the correct contact to select. If I don't already know the first name of the spouse/partner, I have to cancel the activity or note, go back to the the contact list and open the orgiinal contact to see who they are householded with. Then go back and redo the activity. This is very time consuming. Would recommend having family name or the spouses name in parenthesis next to the…

Voice activate typing - NOT copytalk
We use Copytalk (which we have to pay per person for), it would be awesome if the system allowed us to speak directly into Redtail. Not just for taking notes but for everything. i.e. Dragon Speaking Naturally. In the age we live in, our amount of time typing is getting close to constant, causing pain.

employment history
It would be helpful to have a feature for past employment history, where we can search by a contact and find out all the places he/she worked at in the past (kind of like LInkedin), and vice versa -- be able to look at a business and see who used to work there. The memberships field is not very helpful in this regard because it quickly gets cluttered. Say there is a firm of 20 current employees and 20 past employees -- that's 40 records I would need to look through for that firm to find whom I need. Thank…

Husband & Wife as One
Many of my married clients share everything, some even only have one email that they share. What is difficult currently with RedTail is that everything is recorded separately. So notes, emails, documents, reminders, etc. are only connected to one of the two contacts. It would be extremely helpful if we had an option to link the two so that everything that I see in one contact (notes, emails, documents, reminders, etc.) will also show on the other. So no matter which of the two spouses that I open, I will be able to see everything.
It would also be nice…

Servicing Advisor = Advisor Role
Workflows are best used when tasks are assigned to different "roles" within each firm. If we went to the trouble to assign a Servicing Advisor to every contact, why now do we also need to assign an Advisor Role to every contact? Seems redundant.
Sure, you can do a bulk change to assign all servicing advisors the advisor role. But why? If contacts are always getting added, how frequently should you need to run these bulk actions before running a workflow. Recipe for mistakes...

Head of Household Display
Please add some sort of indication on the client profiles for the head of household. Maybe a green box around their profile picture or even just say "head of household" beside their name. I don't care what it looks like but we need some distinction.

Department contacts need to hyperlink to contact card
Department contacts need to hyperlink to contact card. Just like they do in professional contacts where you can click to the professional contact and go to their contact card... this needs to be duplicated.
