Automatically SAVE INPUT and do it WITHOUT CLOSING the activity or note or whatever is beingupdated.
According to this forum, this suggestion (posted in 2016, 2017, 2018) was completed. Funny, since it's our biggest daily problem. We lose data so often that we have to keep a word doc open in the background during the day to enter notes and then find the time to cut and paste to Redtail. Counterproductive? You bet. Keeping notes for our client records is the main reason we purchased RedTail and it's proving less reliable than Outlook Notes. Finding the time at the end of each day to cut and paste into RedTail is ... difficult. so many words came…

Mark Activity Incomplete or Canceled
Some activities never get completed, because we don't hear back from a client/prospect or the client/prospect changes their mind. Right now the only option is to make a note in the description and mark it as complete or delete the activity outright.
I would like to mark an activity either Incomplete or canceled to close out the activity, because it is never going to be complete. This would allow me to keep track of essentially wasted work and unresponsive clients. Also, it doesn't make sense to show an activity as completed when it wasn't. Thanks!

Highlighting text feature
Please consider adding text highlighting to activities and notes. It's great to be able to insert emojis, however, emojis are not as useful as the ability to highlight text. At times, I have several things happening in one activity, and would like the ability to highlight some things that might still be outstanding (or even color code the text).

Assiging multiple users to a task/activity
Prior to your latest release, we used to be able to assign 2 users to a task/activity right when entering the task. Now we have to enter the activity, then go back into it to assign a second person to it. This leaves room for error and makes what used to be a one step process, a 2 step process.

Activity Location - allow for this to be a zoom link
It would be great if the "location" on an activity could be used to store a zoom link. This field appears to only hold text. OR please add an additional field for Activities that can store a Webex or Zoom link, so it doesn't need to be typed in the description.

Activities - Show On Main Page Past Due And Today's Activities
Activities - Show On Main Page Past Due And Today's Activities. I do not only want to see today's activities, I want to also see the past due activities that people have snuck into my activities list that I don't know to check for.

Allow multiple activities to be created off of a single linked note
Multiple activities may be activated by a single note. Why post the same note multiple times or enter the same text into each activity to have a linked note to each activity? This will streamline the notes section with regards to linking and streamline the process. Allows less manipulation by those assigning activities.

Outlook email to Redtail integration for adding tasks
It would be really nice to have an Outlook to Redtail integration that would allow us to create tasks/activities/notes in Outlook, from emails, and add them to Redtail contact records.

Add a rolling reminder to contact a client X days after last contact
Set a reminder or activity that automatically prompts to contact a client at a specified interval after the last contact. That is, activity automatically repeats 30 days (or 90 days, or 180 days) after the last activity is completed. Currently repeating tasks must be hard coded to repeat at specified intervals; they are not sensitive to completion of the last iteration of the task.

Show Multi-day Activities in Today's Overview "Open Activities" Section
If we add an activity to the calendar that starts on Wednesday and ends on Friday, it will only show up under Open Activities on Today's Overview on Wednesday. We would like it to show up on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.

To Do:
A blank note pad (Not linked to calendar or contact) to be able to add and delete notes, things to do, etc. There are plenty of "To Do Things that I do not want cluttering up the calendar but need to from a "Notepad" once finished. It would be nice to have this in Redtail so that I have it digitally where ever I go not just on y desk.

Past due tasks stay on Today screen
When I assign a task to myself or someone else, it will be on my today screen until the due date. If I don't get to it, and it goes to past due, it goes in the past due section. This would be fine, except every single calendar event goes there too, and it is useless for finding past due tasks. Like any good task list, they should stay on the Today screen until they are actually marked as complete. Unless I'm missing something, which is very possible....

Link Activity to Another Activity
We would like to ability to link activities together so if we are working on several items that need to move forward together, we could move the date forward on the "Activity Group" because we will need to work on all of the Activities in the Group on a single day. But we want to manage the separate activities individually as well once we unlink them.

View activities by household
It would be nice if we could see activities per household instead of per individual contact record and marked which contact the activity involves (both, person A or person B). This would reduce lost activities per household without having to switch back and forth between contact records. Especially now, some household members handle their investments individually and some investments together.

Add Timestamp Shortcut
We just migrated from Junxure Cloud and one feature they had that we used all the time is that at the beginning of typing anything into an Activity we would hit [CTRL + J] and it would stamp the date, time and user's initials automatically in the following format:
BK - 11/24/2020 - 12:59:44 PM
We would love for a similar shortcut functionality to be built in as we send our Activities back and forth between team members.

Activity task and category autofill when typing
When creating an activity the "type" and "category" fields should autofill as you type versus scrolling through the drop down. It currently only recognizes the first character. It would be extremely helpful if I could continue typing a word in the field and it filters through my list and narrows down to those characters typed.

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.

Things to Do Today
The items in this section should remain on "today" until either completed or the deadline that we create has passed. For instance if I create an item yesterday to be completed by tomorrow, it's still a "thing to do today" and not yet "past due" or "upcoming". If this can't be changed, this section should be changed to "Activities CREATED Today" to be aptly titled for what it is doing. If changed, this would be a very useful working task list. As is, it seems very limited in its functionality. Seems like a very simple fix, just to change the…
