Feature Requests
Welcome Rex Users!
Let us know what you really want out of the system you use in your businesses every day!
Please include as much detail as possible about what the feature is and how the feature would make your life easier – this will encourage other rex users to vote for your request rather than creating a duplicate idea. The more votes you get the quicker your idea will come to our attention :)
How it works:
- You can add as many new ideas here as you like but each new idea that you add will cost you one of your votes.
- You have ten votes to use. You can distribute these however you like with a maximum of 3 on any single item. You can remove a vote if you change your mind and put it elsewhere.
- If you have voted on an item that is then implemented, you will get those votes back to use again.
Remember – no request is too small :)
Happy voting!

Import custom templates for Automatic Updates
We would like to import custom templates for Automatic Updates. Currently our email clients receive updates with a header graphic that is not acceptable for our brands visual image. We invest a lot of marketing dollars into ensuring every element of branding that is seen and sent to our clients is spot on with corporate colours and logos. This automated email template is not flexible and not on brand. We would like to be able to upload our own graphic template please.
1 voteThis is possible though may attract a cost (unless your designers / developers are able to adjust the formats to be compatible with Rex). Please contact our support team via for more information via the help bar in Rex.

Two Newletter Templates
Our agency would love to have two newsletter templates, we run a Holiday Rental business out of our real estate office that has different branding.
We add all our past guests into REX so we can send them our Real Estate Newsletter but we would also like to send a Getaway newsletter which has specials & booking information,
Would love to be able to have two templates with different branding so that the past guests don't get confused.3 votesThis is already possible if you run your account with multiple locations (brands). Please contact our support team (via the help button in Rex) for more information.

Rex Pocket
Make a short cut to ofi's so I don't have to use home pass. It takes too many different pages to set up an open before you can even put in the clients name.

Rex is fantastic. e.g automatically uploads any video link to Realestate.co,nz or our own Mike Pero page. Sadly REX does not automatically upload to Trademe. Agent has to request a manual upload via our Head office which not a great use of everyones time and worse can be forgotten. Help please!

Projects Stock Mode - Sort Columns Alphabetically
The ability to sort the columns in Stock Mode for Projects is necessary.
Instead of having the stages arranged by ID, it'd be good to be able to arrange them alphabetically/numerically by the second column (name).

Can you please add 'DEADLINE SALE' in the drop-down menu as another Price > Advertise As. In NZ Deadline Sale's are now very popular.
In NZ we sell a lot of properties using the 'Deadline Sale' marketing. The closest method currently available in REX is 'Set Sale' but we've already had purchasers ask us what is a 'Set Sale' as they're all used to seeing Deadline Sale. This would be great to have as another sale method option. Thank you.
6 votesHi Elman,
Using the ‘Set Sale’ option in Rex will actually go through to Realestate.co.nz as Deadline Treaty and to Trademe as Deadline Private Treaty.
These options are defined by both sites and they won’t actually accept ‘DeadLine Sale’.
I hope this helps to clear this up for you – contact the Rex Support team if you have further questions about this.

A name field to identify each phone number listed under a contact
Need a name field next to phone number section to identify who owns which phone number when there is more than one name in the contact ID e.g when a whole family is listed in the contact, husband/wife etc
2 votesThe “type” field is actually a freeform field designed to double as a way for you to label the phone numbers with a particular contact’s name beyond just labeling them as “Mobile / Home” etc. – When the dropdown appears, simply type anything you want to store a custom value.

Commercial Sale & Lease Listing tab
We need a feature that adds both listings for sale & Lease as one. Instead of adding the listing twice. It takes to much work adding all the listing data twice.
1 voteHi there Doukas,
What we would recommend doing is to create the first listing, then duplicate it. This way it copies all the details of the listing and you don’t need to fill it out again.
http://help.rexsoftware.com/listings-how-to-duplicate-a-listing
You might also want to look at linking them together so you only pay for the one listing:

If you get stuck at all, contact our support team – have a good day.

Change task date in Rex Reminder screen
When in the Rex reminder list screen, it would be great if there was also an option to 'change date' of a task while in this screen. So if a task comes up in your calendar but it's not quite due yet, if there was an option in the screen to change the date to push the reminder back a few days. Saves going into each record to push back reminders.

Record time that notes are made
Currently, Rex only records the date you've entered a note, it would be good if a time stamp was also recorded.

Birth date search
When you conduct an advanced search to check for who has birthday's today, it shows no results unless a persons birthday is today's actual date.
There needs to be a way to filter by just the date and month of all years - This will allow agents to send out cards/emails, etc. in advance of someone's birthday.
23 votesHappy to let you know that it looks like we modified the behaviour to match this request a few months ago!
Searching for a birthday on the 28th of October 2017 will now show you all contacts that were born on the 28th of October of any year.

Print detailed stocklist of current listings
Print a detailed stocklist with detailed property information (asking price, beds/bath/car, land size etc) for ease of access when out of the office. If you have say more than 8 listings on the go and a team of agents working under you, it is imperative to have all of this information on hand at all times instead of having to have access to a computer/internet to pull up one file at a time.
Thank you

Vendor report - Price indication graph range too wide.
Currently when I put together an activity report for my vendors the price range displayed is often between 0 & a million dollars even though most of my feedback will fall within a $100k range. It would be much more useful if the graph range either snapped to the figures entered or you could set a range to display before creating the report so vendors can actually discern where the price feedback is coming in.
15 votesHappy to announce that changes to the way this chart is displayed was released in July.

Letter Margins - ability to test margins
Currently you need to enter the pixels and then go to a letter to 'check' if the amount you put into the margins is correct.
If we could have a 'test' option from the same page to confirm if the number of pixels entered is correct it would be very helpful.
