Short note in summary on workflow listing
We are trying to implement workflows in our practice. I like them except for the note process. I wish there was a way to put a short note in the workflow view that give a little more detail as to what is currently the hold up on the workflow item.
For instance, if the next step is obtain client signature, I wish there was a way to put a note as to when the last contact with the client was and what the hold up is. It would be nice to see this on the page with all of the…

Allow for parallel flows through Workflow with dependencies on Workflow Tasks and not just Steps.
The inability to link Workflow Task dependencies and only dependencies between steps limits the workflow capabilities. Can't start on WF Tasks in the next step until the entire step is complete. Also, allowing for multiple flows through the workflow where WF Steps/Tasks can be done in parallel would be beneficial to real world where multiple sequential paths are frequent and they should be related in the same workflow.

Make adding a step to a workflow easier
Would it be possible to create an "Add a new step here" button on the workflow templates? Or something that allows you to drop a step in where you want it; instead of creating them at the bottom of the template and then having to move it?

set a Contact Permission when a Contact Status is changed (for example, to client from prospect)
Right now, you can have an automatic contact permission, but only when the contact is created. If you create prospects, and then convert them to clients, there is no way to have a permission created automatically.
Since many of us create "prospects" prior to them becoming "clients", it would be very helpful to have permissions changed when we add certain information such as Social Security number, etc, which we don't have when they are prospects.

Imbedding Documents/Files into Workflow Tasks
I believe one feature that would transform Workflows into an even greater Redtail tool would be being able to upload/store documents and/or other resource/source/artifact files into individual Workflow Tasks. This added feature would, in my opinion, make a Workflow way more of a hub for office activities. If a specific document/file is in fact needed for a Task or is the product of a Task upon completion, being able to add it to a Task or, more broadly, a Step makes sense.

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.

Create a New Hire Onboarding Dashboard
In recruiting, you need to know everyday where you new hires are within the Onboarding Process. Redtail does not offer a "dashboard" at this time. Please consider creating one.

workflow
Bring back the old method of editing workflows.
The new method to modify workflows is very difficult to use. You cannot see your entire workflow as a whole while editing like you could before. You also have to collapse every single step and every step task unless you want a 20 page long stream of steps and tasks. If you want to move a task around you have to drag it, stop, scroll a little higher, drag, stop, scroll a little higher, etc. That makes it difficult to move stuff around in an efficient manner.
It used to mirror what…

activity from email, email from activity
Users need to be able to easily create an activity from a client/vendor email.
Typical day - we will receive dozens of emails with requests for appointments, meetings, cash, service, change forms, along with many other requests.
Why not make it easier to click two or three buttons to create an activity from an email, add a quick note and assign to a staff member with deadline and priority.
Also - while on the subject, make it easier to create an email from an activity too.

licenses
In the Licenses tab, it would be helpful for the list to start out in alphabetical order. I think it defaults to when the record was added, which isn't very useful in practice. We use this tab to list all rep codes and license numbers for each of our advisors.
I know we can click on the Company header to sort alphabetical, but having this as the default would be nice!

copy note
When I copy a note from one contact to another (ie - from husband to wife), the date copied should be the date of the original note. It's currently set up to date stamp as today's date. So if I'm copying notes from over the last year from husband to wife, everything is showing up on the wife's page with today's date, which isn't helpful.

BCC email archive for client email history
Redtail should capture emails sent 'BCC' from Outlook in the client email history. Currently, it only captures for the archive if it is sent in the 'To' box. But to protect client emails we use the BCC feature. We have migrated to sending blast emails this way because of the lack of functionality in the Broadcast Emails.

Add customizable dashboard. We need to create layouts/forms with user-defined fields like ACT! CRM allows.
Add customizable dashboard. We need to create layouts/forms with user-defined fields organized differently for administrative staff and advisors. Our former ACT! CRM provided this ability. The Redtail dashboard tends to "scratch where it doesn't itch" for our needs.
