Age Based Triggers
I would really love to see the option for triggers based on age/birthdates. As advisors, many important financial events have age based triggers: RMDs, full retirement age, age 59 1/2, etc. To have a workflow or checklist automatically assigned when a client reaches specific milestones would be hugely helpful.

Automation templates & recurring workflows
Please add the ability to automate templates based on time periods/dates. Right now, templates can automatically be applied based on certain actions (i.e. adding new clients). It would be a tremendous help to have the ability to set templates to automatically run every quarter (or other time frame). For example, I run a client invoicing template every quarter and the process can be automated by applying this template automatically each quarter.

Workflow automation to create Activities
The ability for the Workflow steps to automatically create Activities that can be assigned to specific users/teams. Also, the next step in the Workflow would not start until all of the assigned activities in the previous step are completed.
The way that we see Workflows is that they are the "big picture" step-by-step guide & the individual Activities ("Tasks") are the place for the instructions & notes of that particular step.
This would also alleviate the head ache of having to check your Activities list & your Workflows each day & in the past.

Workflow Complete Triggers Additional Workflow
Completion of one workflow should be able to be a trigger event to another workflow. This would allow an automated bridge to connect related workflows.

Triggers
It would be exponentially helpful to expand triggers to include options related to office processes! (ie, 'appointment completed', certain activity added to a calendar, workflows). This would create a lot of efficiency through automating those processes, versus the automation related to data that is currently offered.

Custom Trigger Events
To expand on a few of the other suggestions, it would be helpful to have more Trigger Event options in the Automation function. The ability to customize the Trigger Events would be really helpful as well.

Add a 'Contact Category Change' Trigger Event for Automations
Just like the title states, adding a trigger event for Category changes would be incredible. Additionally, in the long run, being able to have unique trigger events, that are inputed by the user.

Expand Automation Options
Automation is great! I love the idea, but it needs to be expanded. In our office, we have multiple staff and advisers. Many of the staff do the same functions for different advisers. To keep from making some lists too large, it would be great to expand the ability that automation currently offers.
Increase options for trigger events. Example: Client Review Date. It would be great to be able to automate a workflow based on the clients review date(s). This would create less work and tracking of the staff and advisers and make sure that clients are reviewed as often…

More Automation Triggers!
Suggestions for things that would trigger an automation:
1. Completion of a workflow (ex: it would trigger a new workflow to be added)
2. Service agent changed/added (so if a contact is created without a service agent or the service agent is changed something could be triggered, like the adding of a workflow)
3. Contact source is added or changed125 votesRedtail’s Product Owner has read the suggestion and there is some internal discussion needed in order to determine next steps.

Workflow generated with each instance of recurring activity
Having the ability to have a recurring activity trigger an automation that generates a workflow would be helpful. Right now the automation only starts a workflow when you create the activity. when the activity recurs the automation ignores it. This would help with our billing & review process.

default values for every field
Kindly enhance the system where i can setup default values for many of the fields For example, if i want a particular team to be given access or notified most of the time, I should be able set that as a default instead of selecting the same every time i create a task or opportunity. Ability to select defaults should be provide to most if not ALL fields.

Automations - "Added by" option
We have 50+ users in our database. I would like to automate servicing advisor field based on "Added by" as follows:
Trigger Contact Added> "Added by" Equals < e.g.Joe Advisor > "Set Field" > Servicing Advisor to < Joe Advisor>
I currently have permission automations based on Contact Added and Servicing Advisor but Advisors are forgetting that they need to put the servicing advisor to trigger the automation. So using the Added by option would help those folks who forget so it fully automated much of the processes.

Automation Trigger Event: Client Age
This would allow us to trigger Workflows or Notifications when clients achieve a specific ages: 18, 21, 59.5, 60, 62, 65, 67, 70, 72, etc.
Some use case examples:
1. UTMA registration needs to be changed
2. Minimum social security claiming age achieved
3. Remind client to sign up for Medicare
4. RMD age reached90 votes -
Allow the option for automations to trigger on the scheduled date of activities rather than on the date of their creation
Currently if you want to set up an automation that triggers by an added activity the only option is to have the automation complete when the activity is initially created. With this system it is impossible to set an automation up for a future date.
I suggest that an option is made for automations to be triggered on the scheduled date of an activity as opposed to only allowing the automation to occur when the activity is initially created.
