  1. Show Attendee Status for Seminar in Contact

    In the contact record under seminars it tells you WHAT seminar they signed up for but it doesn't tell you their "Status" (if they attended or not) It currently shows the status of the Seminar - Active or Prior however it should show the status of the attendee. The seminar status is not helpful data.

  2. Add 2 contacts to calendar event

    It would be great to be able to add multiple contacts to a calendar event when you're creating it in the calendar.

    I know you can add another after the fact, but that takes longer.

  3. Avoid repeat reminders from falling on a weekend.

    It would be nice if repeat reminders would avoid falling on a weekend. For instance, I have a client who transfers $2800 monthly to an investment account on the 6th of every month. So I set up a reminder on the 7th to invest her money. Some months the 7th falls on a weekend when the market is closed, and I have to manually set a new reminder for Monday. It would be nice if this reminder would automatically push to the following Monday if it fell on a weekend.

  4. Be able to Archive an entire file.

    Be able to Archive an entire file. Goal, only see file when we want to.
    Example: When a prospect doesnt pan out, we want to keep the file and it's informaton; however, it would be "hidden" until we wanted to see it.

  5. Email Notifications- Activities vs. Notes

    Currently when a user marks a note with the "Notify User/Team" the User/Team gets an email with a link to log in to Redtail to view the note.
    Unlike an Activity when saved and completed the Title and the Description are completely displayed in the notification email.

    Can we have the notes fully display in the email. This would help keep teams all on the same page (especially when working remote).

  6. Install a pop up option

    Install a pop up option that can be placed to pop up upon look up of client before going further. with a brief message pertaining to account.
    example- Jane Doe does not want an email to be sent to Husbands work for the next appt. Upon look up of Jane Doe this message pops up and we can remove it or keep it and carry on....

  7. Redtail Support Chat

    It would be nice having the option to have an instant message support chat with Redtail support. It would be really convenient to have the option for quick questions to be answered rather than having to wait and talk through email.

  8. Show Workflows and Activities in the Client's Note Section

    Open (and competed) Activities and Workflows should appear in the Notes section of the client's Redtail, rather than only being able to view activities once completed and having to scroll all the way to the bottom to view active workflows.
    We can have the option to filter out the feed, as necessary.

  9. 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.

  10. Highlighting text feature

    Please consider adding text highlighting to activities and notes. It's great to be able to insert emojis, however, emojis are not as useful as the ability to highlight text. At times, I have several things happening in one activity, and would like the ability to highlight some things that might still be outstanding (or even color code the text).

  11. Notes and account(s) linked within an activity

    Currently, when an activity that is linked to an account, has notes added within the activity, those notes appear in the notes section separately from the activity itself and the account which was originally linked to the activity is not linked to the note. I would suggest notes that are added within the activity get rolled up into the activity so there is one thread/history so all the separate notes that were added within that activity are bundled in one section with the appropriate account number linked to the original activity. It would also be helpful if multiple accounts can…

  13. Schedule or Send Email Later Option

    When we are working with email templates I would like see to the option to schedule when the email is sent. You can only send it immediately. A send later option would be good if we are working on an evening, weekend or would prefer if a client receives the email at a certain time.

  14. Automatically SAVE INPUT and do it WITHOUT CLOSING the activity or note or whatever is beingupdated.

    According to this forum, this suggestion (posted in 2016, 2017, 2018) was completed. Funny, since it's our biggest daily problem. We lose data so often that we have to keep a word doc open in the background during the day to enter notes and then find the time to cut and paste to Redtail. Counterproductive? You bet. Keeping notes for our client records is the main reason we purchased RedTail and it's proving less reliable than Outlook Notes. Finding the time at the end of each day to cut and paste into RedTail is ... difficult. so many words came…

    When searching for a client by their nickname and last name (for example: Bob Jones, instead of Robert Jones), it does not pull up the client.

  16. Roles & Permissions Changes & Customizations

    1. I've voted for many similar posts but want to reiterate how important it is for our team (not just admins) to be able to see who is assigned as a contact's Advisor, Associate Advisor and CSA. Workflow tasks are assigned to these people but our staff can't make sure their set up correctly.

    2. I don't understand the point of having a Servicing Advisor and Writing Advisor AND THEN also the above roles? Why not just have those three listed on the contact's main screen. It's redundant and confusing. Simplification would be greatly appreciated.

    3. We use different terms for our roles.…

  17. Add "Create Activity from Template" to automation actions

    Add "Create Activity from Template" as an action type in Automation Action under "Do this action" tab. Right now you can only do it for workflow templates. It would be great to be able to automate the creation of activities that don't require a whole workflow to manage.

  18. add a plug in for outlook so you can save emails to the client's redtail contact

    With Smart Office we had a plugin/ widget so that we could post an email to their contact page. You either had the option to do it every time for everyone or you could do it manually. You could also click a button and it would send any attachments in the email to their contact page.

  19. 'Complete' Client Reviews

    For an industry that is very much reliant on keeping track of bare min YEARLY client reviews, this section needs a better tech focus. I would at least appreciate if the "Client Review" reminders could be 'completed' just like an activity.

  20. When adding a note to a client, it would be helpful if there was a prompt to link the note to their spouse.

    I often forget to link a spouse to a note. For example; I send an email to a couple, and add it as a note in RedTail. Then, a few days later I might be in the spouses' account, and not see the note about the email I had just sent them. I don't always want to have notes in both spouses accounts, but it would be helpful if I was prompted to save it to the spouse when saving the original note.

    Additionally, it helps other users going into the accounts to be able to see the notes in…
