Add Basic Contact Data (phone, email, DOB, SOC#) as a side column so that when we are in Workflows,we can see that data without clicking out
I work in Workflows all day. There are many times throughout the day that I need access to the clients basic info (DOB, SOC#, Email, phone), and I have to leave the workflow to get to that data. My workaround has been to keep two windows open, but it's a pain. It would be nice to have a side column that shows basic data of the client you are in while you are in the workflow.

workflow reports - more info needs to be included
we are a CPA firm as well as a wealth management firm. We tried to use Redtail workflows this year for tax season and it didn't work well for us. It would be nice if we could easily pull reports to make sure where the workflows are routed, and what step they are on. When I click on "workflows" on the left hand side, it doesn't give enough info. I would like to see which employee it is assigned to and what step it is at in the process (interview, prep, review, etc), and also how many days it's been…

Scrap Worflows and Start Over
Let's go RedTail. Improve your look & feel, functionality, and logic.
For example, Workflows are totally unworkable and forces practices to track processes in other applications, opening the door to your competition.
There are so many other applications that handle repetitive processes in a more logical and user-friendly method. Do some research and hire away some programmers, Orion.

test workflow
Please provide the option to "Test a Workflow" in the workflow creation screen. Currently the only way to test it is to add it to a client, try to use it, go back to the creation screen, edit it, add the newly edited workflow, etc.

"Beta" Workflow Stage
There are only "Under Construction," "Active," and "Inactive." It would be great to have a "Beta" stage for workflows that are in a testing stage - maybe even with the ability to only allow specific users or teams the ability to use the workflow.
Right now our firm is putting "Beta" in the title, but there is no way to search and organize RedTail WF templates by this status and it just looks and feels clunky.

workflow pages
Please give the option to move from one page to the next or previous page at the TOP of the page. We should not have to scroll all of the way to the bottom of the page to get to the next page.

How can we link a workflow to an account and/or an opportunity and/or an activity? In reality, all of these should link together.

I would love hidden workflow templates
Hidden templates
For workflow queens like myself I would love the option to hide my templates that I have very personalized to my daily tasks. With the numerous workflows I want to personalize I and my entire office would prefer these to not be visible to the entire office because then they have to weed through my workflows and vice versa. Thank you!5 votes -
Add Hidden Workflow Templates
Hidden Workflow Templates.
I don't mind sharing my templates but I am a workflow queen so I am looking to create many personalized templates for my tasks to stay on top of my work load. However, I don't want other people to have to weed through my personalized templates to find their templates and vice versa. So private templates would be a fabulous addition. Please, thank you, and have a marvelous day :)

Workflow Automation
When an activity is created by another app (OnceHub), we manually change the activity to a more specific, custom activity type (Inquiry call) which is linked to an automated workflow (Inquiry call workflow), but RedTail doesn't recognize that as a newly created activity, so it doesn't launch the automation and start the workflow. Please update the automation to treat activity type change as a newly created activity so it can trigger the automation because the automations are useless without it

Add the ability to change the status of a workflow to Inactive
We sometimes encounter instances where we cannot move forward with a workflow. Our only option is to delete the workflow, losing all processing notes, or complete the workflow, which creates inaccurate processing notes. This would also allow us to reactivate the workflow if needed.

Group workflows together
We need to be able to group workflows. This is because the workflow list can get very long and many of the tasks may be on the backburner. If we could group the workflows, it would make things more organized and readable. Thank you

Workflow step order change
Allow us to shuffle the order of steps in workflows, when a template is used. If we alter the order of the steps when a workflow is created from a template, or add a new step that preceeds a current one, it does not work properly. It reads in the new order, but you must complete the original preceeding step before being allowed to complete the new one. This is very frustrating because even the best created templates need to be altered for specific situations.

Next Workflow Task Due Dates Updated to Current Date Once Previous Step Completes
Our target dates often get passed by in workflows based on client response times or processing issues with the custodian. When this happens and a step is completed the next step is triggered but already past due. If the person that completes the previous step doesn't update it, the person assigned to the next triggered step/task can easily miss it. It would be great if a task that was past due in a workflow could update to the current date when it is triggered by the previous step being completed.

Workflow Roles
We are reworking our Workflows and have multiple advisors and multiple support staff. We would like to be able to have one workflow that we use for each person and support person but it seems that we need a copy of each workflow per advisor and then per support person. There is an option to use roles to assign people when creating a workflow but that is not functional right now and roles are limited to advisors and not support people. If there is another way to limit the workflows by advisor and support staff, we are open to it…

Reopen Workflow
Re-opening Workflows/Steps once completed. It would be advantageous to provide the option to re-open a completed workflow or step. (Whether by assigning permissions to specific user roles or through the support desk.) Sometimes a step is erroneously marked as complete or an outcome causes the rest of the steps to be skipped and the workflow to be closed out. When this occurs there is not currently an easy option for correcting/recreating the workflow.

Dynamic due dates for workflow steps
Instead of conditioning all workflow steps off a single target date, adding a feature where one step can be spaced a certain number of days from the prior step. If the first step is completed before or after its initial due date, the due date of the next step adjusts dynamically to preserve the spacing between the steps. The user can specify whether they want all steps to be conditioned off the target date, of if they want to create a chain reaction where the timing of each step is based on the others.
