recurring activities
Have an option when choosing when the activity will reoccur, to be x days after the activity is completed. So if you make a monthly call for 1st day of the month, but you get behind and complete on the 15th day, the next call does not occur on the 1st but in 30 days. Otherwise I will be constantly manually adjusting my recurring call dates because I rarely get them done on the actual day they are due.

Comments in Linked Notes
In Activities, under Linked Notes, it would be beneficial to add an indicator (maybe an astrick) to a note when someone has added a comment. There is no way of knowing if someone has commented, unless you open the note.

Task Rollovers
Tasks and Calls that are "Open" (not completed) should automatically rollover - otherwise they can get lost. As an alternative, allow this to be a choice under user preferences.

Only one user editing a Task at a time
Will you please make it so only one person can be in an activity at a time. My colleagues and I have experienced having lost important information or date changes to a task because 2 people or more were in the same task.

Go directly to "Activity Details" when creating a new activity
We want to be able to go straight to the activity details page when creating a new activity. This would create some efficiencies for our team (fewer clicks for activity creation) but, more importantly, it would reduce duplicate email notifications for activities.
For example, right now, when we click "Add activity" and add the relevant details in the abbreviated "Create Activity" window, attendees get an "activity assigned" notification email as soon as we click "create & edit" and then another "activity updated" email once we actually have the opportunity to get to the activity details screen to add a description…

A quick daily/weekly overview of "notes" and/or "comments" made from the day/s before.
My employer comes in every day asking what have we done and where are we with this person.
If he could just open up Redtail CRM and click a tab and it would give him an overview of all the comments and notes made the day before, it would answer everything he needs to know.6 votes -
Save Activity Drop Down Option - Save & Print
It would be super handy to be able to save an Activity and immediately print it off. The current method requires us to Save an event, then open it back up, in order to be able to print notes we've entered into the Description section. I enter agenda's for each meeting and always have to save before printing. This would save me so much time.

Annual Review Checkbox
Annual Review Check Box - it would be incredibly helpful within appointments or phone calls to have a check box to mark "Annual Review" so that when the activity is completed it updates the annual review date for the client to show completed on the date the activity is completed.

Activity Template - Add checkboxes, fillable PDF style
I like the idea of an activity template but I have some processes done now on forms that have nice spots to check off things and in activities I cannot do that. I would love a checkbox bulleted list option like in OneNote. I also would love to be able to make some default activity template text not editable and make it obvious where a person needs to fill out their info. I don't want them deleting 'Account Type - ' to put in (on a new account template) IRA. I also wouldn't mind making some boxes or fields required…

Add a visual status of tasks on the Activities List
At least add an icon like the exclamation point that means in a holding pattern. A visual status or percentage done on the list of tasks would be nice. Basically, I would like a way to differentiate activities in the list that I am waiting on someone else or some information before proceeding. That way it does not clutter the list of to do's when I am seeing what I need to do.

Activity Pinning
It would be a great resource for activities to be pinned at the top of an activity list. Listing an activity as a high priority with the exclamation point only goes so far. The date does not roll, so if the user doesn't know to update his columns by priority or if it changes, then the activity goes back to the original date. Going thorough and rolling each activity every morning is inefficient. If there was an easy way to PIN a certain activity to the top it would stay at the top of your list no matter what.

Activity Start & End Date - Past Due
Activities should NOT show past due if the end date has not passed yet.
If Redtail is not able to adjust this right now can a column be added to the activity list view? "Start Date" & "End Date" that way we can at least see those dates in the list view?
We are not able to keep an accurate track record of the activities that are past due or the activities on someone's plate - including the time allotment for the task. What is the point of the end date field if it doesn't show on the activity list…9 votes -

Activities - Linking Spouse/Significant other
It would be great to have the ability for an activity assigned to a secondary record within a family automatically connect to a primary record. I typically view a record from the primary record and sometimes forget to look at outstanding actions assigned to the other. Basically, have open activities at the family level as an option.

Add a "Team" option when assigning new Tasks/Activities
We'd love it if you could add an option when creating a new task to assign it to a team instead of having to add individuals manually. When we add a new team member we have to go back through hundreds of tasks and manually update them to add the new teammate whereas if we could add a team, they would update automatically when we add a new team member to that team. This would be a HUGE savings of time for our company.
