Edit Contact Type
The ability to add/remove Contact Type options. For example, we do not use "Association" or "Union" - so we would like those options to be greyed out or removed entirely, so they cannot be chosen. We don't want any users to be able to assign an incorrect contact type - which is easy to do with multiple users creating accounts. This is more for ensuring data stays clean.

A "Pop-Up Warning" when you open a contact's page
When opening a contact's page, it would be extremely helpful to be able to enable a pop-up warning of some kind that you need to click out of before viewing the contact's page. In another CRM that I've used, this was an extremely helpful feature. Not all clients had it, it was only if you wanted it there.
I used it for alerting myself and other staff members if there was something that was urgent and necessary for EVERYONE to know before talking to this client on the phone or emailing them.
A few examples would be:This client works…

Why do the notes we are notified about only appear under notifications?
We receive emails when tagged in a note, but there is no way to see a list of the notes we have been tagged in on the website. Could there be a section under "Notes" in the "Today" view to display all the notes we have been tagged in? I also think it would be beneficial if they showed up under the bell icon, as that is where notifications are supposed to be on the website. papa's scooperia

Link Beneficiary to Contact Record
It would be awesome if beneficiaries could link to existing contact records, as well as giving an option to create a contact record (similar to updating Ownership in Accounts). This would help us have a more comprehensive and cohesive CRM!

referrals
Referral Tree
Presently, there is no way to create a referral tree, or to pull a report of contacts who have referred others.
EX: If Amy refers Dave, I can enter Amy's name (as text, not as a link to her profile) on Dave's profile as a 'Referred by', and I can pull a report that will give me 'Referred by' and 'Source' (which would pull Dave's records), but I can't pull a report that will pull Amy's information.The ultimate goal is to pull a report to see which contacts referred other prospects/clients in the past year, because we…

There needs to be more ability to choose fields to lock down and prevent advisors from changing data.
enable fields such as status, source, category, servicing and writing advisor, key words, UDFs, account status to be locked down to prevent another user from changing.

Can a field be added to a Business contact that links back to the Owner?
If a Business & the Owner are both contacts in the CRM, can a field be added to the Business Contact that would allow it to link directly to the Owner? Similiar to how you can list a Business as the Employer on the Individual Contact.

Search by last name only
We've had RedTail for some time now and the only thing I really miss from old CRM is the ability to search by last name only. When I type in a last name everything remotely the same (3 matching letters in a street name or name of a town etc..) comes up. Sometimes I am scrolling thru 60+ names or more when I know I only have 3 contacts with that same last name. And some names,( i.e.Thomas) can be first or last names but everything pulls up. Very time consuming.

add columns to Home Screen of Contact Records
On "home screen" of listing of contacts, it would be very helpful to have at least 3additional columns: Date of Birth and Address and Phone Number. I have a fair number of clients with literally the same name. So having additional columns that I can see at a glance would streamline my day.

Roles & Permissions Changes & Customizations
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.
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.
We use different terms for our roles.…

show power of attorney on contact details
If client has a Power of Attorney, there should be a field readily visible on the main client record screen. A customizable field could work for this too. There should also be a way to link that POA's Redtail contact (not thru family set-up) to the client's contact record.

Primary Contact - Add link to that person's record
Within the Primary Contact box, include a link to access that person's record within Redtail. For any additional information on that person now, you have to go under "Memberships" to find their record or search for their record. If the link is provided, you just click the link and it takes you directly to their record.

recruiting
In the Recruiting side, having that area be editable so that the data there fits with the broker dealer experience and lingo. There are many fields that don't apply to us and it would be great to save space and remove them. Also, there are combinations that I don't know the definition of so it would be wonderful to edit them

Life Partner
When adding a life partner to a record, we need to have the link to show up to their record; not just a family name. It needs to look and functionality needs to be the same as the spouse.

Customizable Contacts Home Page
Ability to customize contact page home screen so that we can see all contacts in a list with their primary number/address/last meeting date/ age/ etc. Salesforce has this ability and it greatly streamlines our workday.
