  3. Turn off auto creation of employer records

    Give the database owner the ability to turn off the auto creation of employer contract records. I find it annoying to have records created for employers as I don't ever use them and they don't get categorized properly.

  4. Use the USPS API to verify mailing addresses

    The USPS has a great API to verify addresses and format them to the USPS standard. It will even give the Zip+4 for the address. How about a button to check the address?

    Info on the API can be found here: https://www.usps.com/business/web-tools-apis/address-information-api.htm

  5. Personal Profile Form

    We would like to be able to customize the Personal Profile form. It does not show fields we want on it like grandchildren, attorney or CPA. I can see that users have requested this for over 6 years. We don't want it in an excel format but in the pdf single page look.

    For example: have a banner that indicates a contact is a top client; but we admins could freely create whatever banners they wish to use for their practice.

  10. Contact Name in Open Tab

    When a contact is open in an internet tab, it would be nice to add the name to the open tab(s) since I flip back and forth between different contacts and I know I am not the only one that works off of multiple tabs.

    The license type database list is incomplete. While adding licenses for advisors, I was unable to add Series 1, Series 22, Series 31, and Series 53. I submitted a ticket to support technology but I was told that this feature is unavailable, and they suggested that I post it as a suggestion.

  12. 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.

  14. 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…

  15. Distinguishing minor children from adult children

    It would be ideal to be able to distinguish minor children (who need to have the same contact info as the parent) from adult children (who need different address/phone, etc., from the parent), yet still be able to see them in the same list (not half in Memberships and half in the family area).

  16. 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…

  17. Establishment Date (Trust/Business/Associations ect)

    It would be very productive if we could have the establishment date field in the contact details section for entities. Usually on account paperwork the establishment date is required so having this information in the contact card just as it for birthdays would be very beneficial for entity clients.

  18. 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.

  19. 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.
