Required Minimum Distribution
I would like to see Redtail Create a Required Minimum Distribution tab. This tab could have fields for each IRA that a client has and the advisor office can be fill in. In addition field for the Factor needed to calculate the RMD could be entered for the calculation to take place. It would also be nice if it would keep the records from year to year and if a detail section could be typed into for when the distributions where taken and how much were Qualified Charitable distributions etc.

employer/employment info
We want to start using the client profile print out at client meetings and want the employer information but we DO NOT want the Employers as contacts. We thought we could put it under the section of Know Your Client but that doesn't feed to the profile page! Why can't you give us a choice about creating a employer contact???

Add "Referrer email" field under already existing "Referred by" Field or allow for a UDF of choice in Contact Details
Currently if I wanted to send the referrer an email, I would have to:
1. go to another contact and find email there
2. Create a UDF which takes several clicks to get to and is in a different sectionIt would be great to either:
1. Allow user to add a field of their choice under "Contact Details" or
2. Redtail to add "Referrer email" right under the already existing "Referred by" fieldThis would allow for an email to referrer with just one click and easy to find

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…

Family Portfolio Aggregate link
When viewing the head of household in "view family accounts" it would be nice to have the Portfolio Balanced reflect the family aggregate. Right now you can see all the account, but have to either click on Portfolio Balance or Accounts to see the true family account aggregates.

add a household portfolio balance option
When a client is married you should have the option to see the household portfolio balance not just the individual portfolio balance on the main screen.

Remove "SEI" Icon Next to Contact Record Name
We stopped feeding SEI account values to the CRM because we do not want this integration set up anymore. After we stopped the feed, I noticed that the "SEI" icon next to the contact record name never deleted.
We have a lot of clients in the CRM who no longer have a SEI account so it would be great if Redtail would have the ability to remove the SEI icon especially when it is no longer applicable to our clients.

List of multiple employers for single contact
Please add the ability to have multiple employers for a single contact. We have many contacts who work and own businesses. Being able to link owners and employers of these additional businesses would be helpful.

Financial Planning Tab in Clients
I would love to see the addition of a Financial Planning tab under the contact record. It would be a summary page of where a client is. It may have things like whether they have a will or not, when that will was done, when we last asked about the will to make sure it is reflects current wishes. It would have places for outside accounts or insurance policies (for a placeholder for accounts we don't have downloading in and won't mess up our AUM numbers). It can be any current contributions strategy or withdrawal strategy or have places to…

Enable user defined fields to have a customizable order
I think it is key to enable user defined fields to have a customizable order, not just alphabetical. This would allow users to format and better fit UDF's to their specific needs. I know that we are evaluating other options for our CRM needs because of the lack in customization with UDF's, if there were more options on this front, it would allow us to stay with Redtail.

change next review to next review due
On the front page of the contact record along the top where it says next review. That is just when it is due based on KYC, so it should be labeled NEXT REVIEW DUE not next review. It is misleading that there next review is actually set already for that date instead of just being due based on the KYC info.

Auto-Assign CSA Role Based on Advisor
It would be nice to, upon creation of a new client record, assign the CSA Role automatically based on the Writing and Servicing Advisor combinations. i.e. If the new contact's Writing Advisor is John and Servicing Advisor Joe, the CSA role would automatically assign to Jane.

Date of birth field, allow entry without slashes and have system automatically insert slashes.
Allow us to enter date of birth as 01012019 and have system automatically format it with the slashes. Data entry is faster if we don't have to add slashes.

Trusted Contact
Under the contact record, can we please add fields for "Trusted Contacts"? We need to record the name, address, phone, and email of Trusted Contacts in a way that is easy to find. We are currently adding it to the "Important Information", but having a specific field in the contact info would be more helpful. It would also be nice if there was a checkbox somewhere that you could click if Trusted Contact is "declined", as this is something required going forward.

Hide contact records that belong to former clients who have closed all accounts
Currently, all contact records are pushed to Redtail CRM even after the client is no longer with your firm. That means that advisors must constantly see the names of clients who have unfortunately either closed all their accounts, moved to another firm, or passed away. All these closed-account and deceased contact records really clog up the contact list. I would like to be able to permanently hide these entries.

Update clients contact photo based off of their linked social media website
I think it would be great to have the ability for our client's contact record photo be updated to whatever the image they have on their connected social media website. For those who have multiple social media websites, I feel it would be easy to give the advisor a choice on which photo to have system default to use.
