Non-Qualified
Please add a check box for Non-Qualified and a tag that says Non-Qualified. That way when I'm looking at an account, I don't have to double check that I missed the Tax Qualified box. Also, it would be good for pulling reports.

birthday reminder
It would be nice to turn off the enable birthday reminders system-wide so only those clients you definitely want to wish happy birthday can be reminded. As of now you can bulk remove, but all new contacts added are automatically checked. It would also be nice to have an automation template that would email a certain person/team a day or two before a birthday call was required. So, "if enable birthday reminder is checked" then "email user/team".

Edit/customize account information fields within an account type
Right now the fields within different account types are set, and not always pertaining to applicable features within certain registrations/ investments. Would be nice if the administrator could add/ edit/ remove account specs from the within a specific account type to match what our office would like to see when viewing certain types of accounts in Redtail. For example: just on the account type Variable Annuity, we want a death benefit option to be a list of riders we frequently use or Return of Principal, but it only gives us the options of Level, Increasing, Automatic or Decreasing which only…

Sorting of "Activities"
Sorting of "Activities". I sort my activities, first by date (descending), then by assigned number (ascending), then by "!" (importance). This should give me today's "important", #1 tasks at the top of the list.
Tailwag appears to only sort by one column, and has to be resorted EVERY TIME THE SCREEN IS REFRESHED.
Please add the ability to choose sort parameters that stay in effect until I change them.
This is a HUGE issue for me.

Notification when ID expires
Since we put in the expiration dates of client's IDs, a notification of each expiration (e.g. 30 days prior) would be appreciated. This way we could update it the next time we communicate with the client.

Please add search feature to Beneficiary
Beneficiary information needs to become a searchable field along with the auto population of DOB and SS#. This would save time when updating forms and reviewing beneficiaries.

Please add "Non-Qualified" and "Non-Qualified Joint" to the drop down menu, for when tax qual. box is NOT checked.
The drop down menu is active even when the "tax qualified" box is not checked. It therefore should include options for "Non-Qualified" and "Non-Qualified Joint." We should not have the sole options of using "other," or simply leaving this field blank.

Edit 'Outcomes' in Workflows tool
I've found that once you create an Outcome in the Workflow template, it can only be deleted, not edited. It would be helpful for this to be corrected.

Assign Activity to Team
I would like to be able to assign an activity to a team, instead of only being able to assign activities to users.
This works well for reassigning tasks and roles while individuals are out or unavailable.
For instance Joe Smith (JS) handles all of our client paperwork. Jane Doe (JD) is the paraplanner in the office. I have created a team: "Client Service - JS". Joe Smith is currently the only member of that team. I would like to be able to assign activities (like processing client paperwork) to Client Service - JS. If Joe Smith decides to leave…

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.

Offer a check box or option for "Per Stirpes" in the beneficiary box under the accounts.
Allow acknowledgement of a "per stirpes" designation for each beneficiary. Then if that box is checked have an additional area pop up that will allow to put the per stirpes recipients names if they are known.

When creating new activity, give users the option to make the "more details page" the default.
Currently, there are lots of suggestions for fixing the abbreviated activities dialogue box. Many users are unhappy with the multi-step process for assigning activities to other users, adding notes, etc. It's very inefficient and lots of users prefer the Leapfrog approach to adding activities - one dialogue box with all the details on one page. It was very efficient.
Maybe the best solution to making the process more efficient in Tailwag is to bypass the abbreviated dialogue box. There are two options.
Get rid of the abbreviated dialogue box Altogether. When the user clicks add activity, Tailwag goes directly to…

Contact Details - Add Retired/Retiring As Of Option
In financial industry advise offered to clients may differ based on whether they are retired, on the verge of retiring or have many years left to work.
It would be helpful/useful to money managers / planners to Add Retired/Retiring As Of Option with a drop down to select a date so this information can be entered when the client is created. This would greatly increase the functionality of searching contacts without having to manually assign this options as a keyword or tag group as it may be overlooked.

Activities saved as draft
When creating an activity, it would be really helpful to have that activity saved as a draft if you inadvertently leave the activity before saving it. If nothing else, a pop-up asking whether you're sure you want to leave an unsaved activity would help keep us from forgetting and losing all of the activity detail we already entered.

One Click Copy to Clipboard
In other industries I've used CRMs where I could click on address or phone for instance to copy to my clipboard for easy pasting elsewhere.

Allow the option for automations to trigger on the scheduled date of activities rather than on the date of their creation
Currently if you want to set up an automation that triggers by an added activity the only option is to have the automation complete when the activity is initially created. With this system it is impossible to set an automation up for a future date.
I suggest that an option is made for automations to be triggered on the scheduled date of an activity as opposed to only allowing the automation to occur when the activity is initially created.

Custom Trigger Events
To expand on a few of the other suggestions, it would be helpful to have more Trigger Event options in the Automation function. The ability to customize the Trigger Events would be really helpful as well.

Account Risk Tolerance and Time Horizon Fields
It would be nice if the fields under an Account for Investment Objective, Time Horizon, and Risk Tolerance could match up with those of my BD new account forms. Currently only the Investment Objective list can be modified in RT. Could you make it so we could modify the lists for Risk Tolerance and Time Horizon as well thus creating a list of choices that match up with those of our respective BDs?
Thanks.295 votesThe suggestion may be planned, but there is no timeline on this feature being added.

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.
