  1. Add more fields under beneficiaries

    Add fields under beneficiaries for address, relation, DOB, and social security number for each beneficiary. Beneficiary information is extremely important and should be easily accessible all in one location.

  2. Client's name at the very top of all notes, tasks, activities

    The client's name should appear in BOLD at the top of all work pages. i.e. at the top of all notes, tasks, reports, activities, etc.
    Now you have to look up, down, and sideways to find the client identification. Also, tasks should be "assigned to" and not "attending".

    "Attending" makes no sense.

  4. In current RMD report, add date range feature, so we can pull every client who turns 70 1/2 within that current year

    The added date range feature will allow the user to customize the RMD report to ensure every client who turn 70 1/2 in the current year is not missed.

  5. ABILITY TO INCLUDE INSURANCE POLICIES ON CRM

    On the left hand side include a place where we can enter insurance policies (life, LTC, DI, etc) and annuities held. This would show a more complete financial view of client/household. I am happy to submit a template for information.

  6. Link Account to Multiple Contacts

    I would like to be able to link accounts to multiple contacts. Joint accounts, also trust accounts where the trustees may or may not be a part of the same household. It would also be nice for the purpose of linking a power of attorney to an account.

  7. Track Commissions

    Please provide a report page that shows outstanding revenues that can be targeted, both for Commissions and for AUM (Assets Under Management). This feature will allow advisors to see all of their revenues that they can potentially acquire, if they close all of their outstanding prospective business. Please list Commissions and AUM for each Prospect/Client and a Total for all outstanding amounts at the top of the page. Thanks!

  8. I need to see clients trust accounts on their Contact page.

    When my clients are trustee or beneficiary on a Trust account I need to see that relationship on the Contact page. Currently only accounts in the clients SSN are included in AUM on the Contact page. Linking the client to the Trust in memberships does not show up on the Contact page. The only way I can relate the client to the trust is through personal knowledge. If I am looking at the Contact page and do not recall they also have a Trust account there is nothing there ont the Contact page to remind me.

  9. RedTail API integration with Charles Schwab

    We would like to see a direct auto feed integration between Redtail and Charles Schwab through API, which means that you would not need Portfolio Center in order to auto link accounts into Redtail. We would like to see account values, holdings, primary addresses, emails, phone numbers, date of births, etc. automatically link into the Redtail contact and account details. It would also be great if these fields would update automatically in Redtail based upon changes made at Charles Schwab.

  10. Remove Closed Accounts from Reporting Under Account Type

    When you click on accounts and see the graph for what type of accounts make up your client base, the closed accounts are still reflected. This does not depict an accurate picture of our clientele. Including the data skews what type of accounts we should be focusing on for our firm. Please do not include closed account in reporting function. They are closed and should not be considered relevant data to the existing database. However we should not have to delete them entirely because we might have important notes of past history tied to those accounts. Just disable them from…

  11. Renewal Calendar Reminder

    I am in the health insurance business, and we have renewal dates for the health policies. The account platform is great to put the account information, carrier, product type, and renewal date in. The only issue I have with this is when you put the renewal date in, it doesn't populate a reminder in the calendar. I was wondering if this feature could be added. Right now I have to run a report with the renewal dates, and then add them to the calendar as recurring activities. This leaves a lot of room for human error. This added feature would…

  13. insurance

    There should be a seperate section for insurance products rather than lumping them together with investment accounts...unless its a cash value policy. Implement the seperate section so that all the various insurance data options are available to customize for Term life, LTC, disability, health, auto, casualty, etc.

  14. Account Renewal Reminder Date - Auto Renew Feature

    The reminder date should have the option to auto renew until a particular date in the future to minimize the time to MANUALLY update this field.

  15. Householding accounts

    Be able to household accounts together instead of having to click back and forth from one account to the next. Have all tasks, notes, e-mails listed on one household, so that it's condensed into one.

  16. Offer a check box or option for "Per Stirpes" in the beneficiary box under the accounts.

    Allow acknowledgement of a "per stirpes" designation for each beneficiary. Then if that box is checked have an additional area pop up that will allow to put the per stirpes recipients names if they are known.

  17. The Beneficiary inside the account should be a link to a contact record in Redtail instead of separate.

    Inside of the Accounts feature, there is alist of Beneficiaries. These names do not link to a contact record. It would be helpful to have them link. Currently it is just a text field and not linked to a contact record.

  18. Non-Qualified

    Please add a check box for Non-Qualified and a tag that says Non-Qualified. That way when I'm looking at an account, I don't have to double check that I missed the Tax Qualified box. Also, it would be good for pulling reports.

  19. Accounts Information

    Is there a reason the entire accounts page reads like an insurance/annuity page? Investment accounts (brokerage, mutual funds, etc) don't have delivery dates, issue dates, premiums, surrender values, etc. This information is important for insurance contracts but not useful for investment accounts. Perhaps a box that just pertains the investment information needs to be added and combine the current boxes into one titled insurance contracts.

  20. advanced search feature - account balance

    on the advanced search fields we can search by portfolio value but not by individual account value. please add that search field.

    this allows us to search and find zero balance accounts or any accounts under/over certain values for opportunities.

    thank you
