Notes--being able to link a contact to a note you have already posted.
as it is now, you can only link a contact to a note at the time of creation so in order to link a contact you would have to delete the note and recreate it in order to link. it would be much easier if there was a 'link contact' feature under action just like there is a 'link account' feature action.

Outlook Add-in
I see that others have suggested an add-in in lieu of the Retriever software. Retriever is a bit cumbersome and "buggy" as it relates te calendar activities. It would be ideal if there was an add-in that allowed for easy archive to RedTail of email, syncing of calendar and tasks from Outlook directly. There are add-ins for Zoom, etc. in Outlook that connect directly to the calendar, so I know that the tech exists. We love RedTail but a better integration with Outlook would make the product stellar.
Thank you

Attaching an Email from Outlook to a Client Record (when client is not on the chain)
Redtail should have a feature/integration with Outlook to attach an email to a client record, when the client email address is not included on the chain. I understand email archiving can capture communication with the client, but there are instances where our team has emails related to the client and we should be able to save those without copy and pasting into a note.

Moving team notice; rearrange "Today" page
It would be great if we had the ability to customize and rearrange our "Today" page, ideally to be able to move Team Notices to the top so they are seen even above tasks.

Contact Options - Reports
Hello. Please make a change to allow the Reports under Contact Options to be customized. It would be fantastic if we could custom select which fields we want to include in these reports. Thanks for your consideration.

Automation Triggers based on Day, Month, Quarter
I have several workflows set up that function as checklists for staff to perform certain tasks. These are grouped by Daily Tasks, Weekly Tasks, Monthly Tasks & Quarterly Tasks.
I'd like to have these configured with automation so that the Daily Tasks workflow is automatically created every day; the weekly every Monday, the Monthly on the first day of every month, and Quarterly on the first day of a calendar quarter.

auto save
Please autosave anytime the window is closed for any reason, even if going to another task or to client record or.... Please autosave after each line is completed. Please autosave all the time. It is so frustrating to loose work and have to do it over and over, when you are in a busy environment and constantly being pulled to do other things only to find what you just entered into Redtail is gone.

Create functionality so that an email received by another contact in the database could be linked to a different contact.
Create a way to link an email from one contact in the database to another. I.e. I have an insurance specialist who sends quotes and emails about my clients. I want to be able to link HIS email to THEIR record for easy reference.

workflow
Can we have workflows with an option to disregard the target date but be able to have steps be spaced out from each other. For instance, Step 1 is due 1/1 and step 2 is due three days after step 1 is completed. I believe this way it would make it easier to keep track on steps and stay on track for timing if a step has to be pushed back.

Move workflow tasks within a workflow template from one step to another
Ability to move tasks within a workflow template from one step to an existing step or a new step. Currently, you have to create an entirely new task within the step. Some tasks have detailed information and it would be nice to be able to reserve that info versus retyping or copy/paste.

Broadcast Email Template Automation
it would be nice if redtail could send an email template automatically on a client's account anniversary/annual review. Right now I have to manually send a template to the client.

Print Full Activity Details, Including Linked Notes
Currently when printing an activity, only the portion of the description box that is showing on the web screen at that time appears. Additionally, the Linked notes are not printed out with it. If they are printed out with it, they are cut off and listed as (more...). We need to see all of the details surrounding that activity in an easily printable format.

Search for nearby clients list or map view
Ex: Agent has to drive 1 hour away for an appointment that will only take 10-15 minutes and would like to make better use of his time, Redtail should have a function that allows Agent to see other clients in that area so that he can attempt to schedule multiple appointments in the same area easily. Now he is able to meet a client for his annual review meeting on his way back rather than driving all the way back out there in 2 weeks"
It would be nice if Redtail had a way to find other clients that live…

Edit/customize account information fields within an account type
Right now the fields within different account types are set, and not always pertaining to applicable features within certain registrations/ investments. Would be nice if the administrator could add/ edit/ remove account specs from the within a specific account type to match what our office would like to see when viewing certain types of accounts in Redtail. For example: just on the account type Variable Annuity, we want a death benefit option to be a list of riders we frequently use or Return of Principal, but it only gives us the options of Level, Increasing, Automatic or Decreasing which only…

Workflow Notifications- Choose when to send a notification
We have many individuals on a team in our office. It would be beneficial if sending workflow update e-mails were optional; just as they are with notes. It would be helpful to be able to select who the notifications should be sent to.

Mapping Addresses
Currently, if you are in a client record, you can click on the client address and "MAP" it. It would be nice to be able to "MAP" multiple addresses at once. If I am travelling out of town to visit clients in the same general area, it would be helpful to be able to map all of the clients at once to determine the best route to take.

Linking of Contacts, Accounts to Opportunities and Opportunity Notes
Opportunities can link contacts on the "big picture" side. We would like to see the ability to link an account to opportunities as well, either pending or existing accounts.
Additionally, we would really like to see all notes made in the opportunity automatically link to any linked contact or account. We currently have to do a double entry on the contact level, which makes it easy for someone to miss and potentially leave the note stuck in the opportunity. For the accounts, we have to make sure the contact linked, then go to the contact record, then link the account…
