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!

Attach Vendor Statements to Documents Tab
In Victoria we supply interested buyers with the Vendor Statement or Section 32. It would make our agents life easier if this could be done directly from REX. Unfortunately, the document tab can only upload documents of a certain size limit. Vendor Statements can be quite large and the facility just doesn't allow for this. At a quick glance it would also advise all agents that the Vendor Statement is now available. This is not a request, in Victoria this is a legal requirement and should be a feature on REX.
3 votesUploading documents up to 30 MB is now supported in each of properties, contacts and listings.

Auction details on brochure
The auction date and time doesn't appear on the brochure. Can you please look into making this appear instead of the price.
Thank you10 votesHey there,
Thanks for your feedback!
This is something you can already do in Rex by creating your own templates and adding in a merge tag which will grab that info.
Don’t worry if you do not want to create a whole new template, you can just duplicate ours, then modify.
Check out the following article which has links to videos on how to perform this.

Customised Reports
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE can we have the ability to customise reports. The current one size fits all is really inadequate. Thank you.
21 votesWe introduced Custom Reports in August of 2022 and have since added support for custom fields, and will be adding support for appraisals shortly. Custom Reports allow you to group rows, conduct aggregate calculations and to see related data all in one place. See our help article here: https://support.rexsoftware.com/hc/en-us/articles/8006627994137-Introduction-to-Custom-Reports

Withdrawing property reason
When withdrawing a property one of the main reasons for withdrawal is "taking off the market and renting it out" I would like to see that added as another option
0 votesHi Maxine,
You actually have the option to withdraw a property with the reason ‘other’ this will then enable you to enter your own reason for the listing withdrawal.
Contact our support team should you require help with this.

Interest level list
It would be great if we could access the list of people that have been to a property and change the interest level, so when you are doing vendor reports you can check and change the interest levels before doing the report etc.

Contact Report for Newsletter subscribers that clicked a particular property or link
The subscriber activity currently provides information on which links were clicked on, who clicked on the most links, but cannot provide the one thing I would most like to know which Contacts were interested in a particular Property or link to follow up. I would also like the link when it a property to display the property instead of just a link to the listing_id.

Tick box for address the same as Postal address
It would save time if there was a box to tick when the contact's address is the same as their Postal address. Saves writing it out twice or copying and pasting. Thanks
9 votesHi Everyone,
When filling out the Contact Record, if there is no Postal Address entered it assumes that the Home Address is the Postal Address.
You don’t need to add in the Postal address unless it is different from the Home Address. -

For example block base and weatherboard top and the gabel part of the roof may be colour steel or long run whilst the eve or extension areas may be a membrane like neuroply style roof.

Feedback to Vendors post OFI's:
Hi REX,
It is difficult to add feedback to the vendor reports when making post OFI callbacks.
When we make calls to buyers who have been through our Open Inspections they give valuable feedback that the vendors should be able to view....
When we make calls to buyers who appear in the property feedback section we can add a note to the 'buyers profile' however this note doesn't appear as feedback when we generate a vendor report...
Suggestion: Add a feedback box similar to the note box that appears in the speech bubble when you click on a buyer who…
58 votesThank you to everyone how has voted and commented on this suggestion!
As mentioned previously in the comments below the initial suggestion is actually available and has been for a few months – when you click on a contact, the popout includes a feedback option (letting you add feedback for a contact without leaving whatever screen you’re on).
You can also add feedback by clicking the main plus button (next to the search bar at the top of the screen) and selecting feedback.
We’ve had another suggestion submitted to us, which we think might interest you and solve the issues you have mentioned below.
Because the initial suggestion has been solved we are going to complete this suggestion, however please feel free to vote and comment on this new suggestion via the link below if you think this might help you further.

buyer match
Problem with Buyer Match: if you put that a buyer has a criteria of one garage a match excludes a property that does not have a garage but does have a carport. There is no criteria for carport in the match profile. I think that the match should combine a listings garage and/or carports. The only way to get around this is to not put anything down in this criteria when filling out the buyer requirements.
0 votesHi Stephen,
Thanks for the feedback!
This was a bug in Rex and has since been rectified.
