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!

Forwarding Previously Sent Emails
Once an email has been sent through Rex and is showing in the client stream, it would be great to be able to have an option to forward that original email (with attachments) rather than starting a brand new email if we need to resend that same information to the client.

Bulk Assign reminders to contacts
It would be extremely helpful to be able to bulk assign new reminders to contacts.
Eg. I print 100+ letters for each of my reps every week that need a follow-up call the following week. It would be great if I didn’t have to manually add the reminder for each property.

Include 'Owners' & 'Tenants' column in property view
Add 'owner' & 'tenant' column to 'View Properties' page.
Do this via the top right hand side drop down menu and include both and 'owner' & 'tenant' giving each a separate check box in the drop down menu. Menu shown in attached image.This is beneficial to prospecting.

Pocket Kiosk - Address and Notes capability
Currently on our physical open home booklets we have a section for the buyers current address and any additional notes they might want to add about what they are looking.
These sections allow us to gather more information from the buyer in regards to their current situation (If they are already local, do they need to sell before buying, do they have any specific or strange requirements for their next home that we should know)
These 2 fields being added to the check-in screen would be a great addition to the app.

Viewing notes that others have left on your records
When using a closed office role, you can only view the notes that you leave on a record. But if you have admin staff leave notes on records you own, you can't view it. The only alternative we have is to enable users to view all notes, which gives them access to Notes on ALL records, not just their own.
It would be great if there was an additional privilege that would enable record owners to view notes on their records, left by other users.

Automated email campaigns with event triggers & mailing list segments OR more integrations with 3rd party APIs
I'd love the ability to build a campaign that sends set emails at certain steps throughout a campaign. The ability to have triggers is also a must - Eg. the person gets an email clicks a link but doesn't convert would trigger an action that sends them another email to put them through a different marketing funnel.
If this isn't easy to build into the current system, 3rd party API support would be amazing. App support I'd love to see and personally use: ActiveCampaign, Zapier & Facebook Lead Ads
Mailchimp/Mandrill has also been requested by another user and would be…

Amend Invoices (rather and having to void & redo them)
It would be useful to be able to amend invoices rather than having to void an invoice that changes and re-enter it.

Internal call list for a property with feedback and buyers and numbers
Hoping it will look like the vendor report but be for internal use only with all the comments, which we put in our reports such as their family makeup and also their budget.
It would be great to read this and make calls on other properties listed that are similar for agents to want to grab and call on the road.
I have attached a file that we used to use.

One screen to process large (multiple property) supplier invoices (REA)
Rather than having to go to every properties VPA screen to manually check the amount matches the supplier invoice and then 'set supplier reference'.
There should be a dedicated admin screen that you can process the whole invoice. Ideally - select the supplier, add in the invoice number (supplier reference). Then you should be able to click the Red + button and search the listing and add in the amount.
More detail: Selecting a supplier - pulls the selections from your pre-set Advertising Providers
Processing a line item on the supplier invoice: The search for a listing process should display…

Filter contacts by owning multiple properties
We are using a Tag in Rex currently as "Absent Owner" and manually adding to clients that own more than 1 property or own in our area but live elsewhere. Currently we are only able to add this manually when we come across a contact that fits this criteria but it would be great if we could filter contacts that are linked to multiple properties already and bulk tag. This information is vital for offices that are trying to grow rent rolls by prospecting.

Track Dates
Currently you can set tracks according to:
a. a start date, and
b. forward dates.
Track functionality and usefulness would be significantly advanced it you could:
a. Specify actions according to key dates associated with the listing record (i.e. listing date, expiry date, contract date, expected unconditional date and expected settlement date), and
b. dates could be calculated forward and back from a these dates.
We were able to do this in our previous software and it was great . . .
73 votesIt looks like there’s 2 requirement requests going on here:
1. Triggering addition of tracks based on an event.
2. Having reminders that are attached to floating dates (e.g. unconditional date, settlement date etc). E.g. 3 days before unconditional.Would be good to get some more info on both of these items.
1. Regarding triggering addition of tracks based on events:
- Presumably you want support for this in multiple modules. If so, is it all modules or just some?
- For each module, what are the events that you think should be supported for triggering track addition?
- Is this an automatic process or is the user prompted to add the track when the event occurs.
- If the desire is for the track addition it to be automatic, how do we deal with questions like which contact should a track be attached to in a listing or property that includes multiple contacts…

Different Projects Views
The ability to have different views for Projects would be beneficial to us. When we have a project that is 'inactive' it would be great to have it show in a separate area - much like the Listings section has a 'Current' and 'Sold' section.

Trust Account Receipts - separate Office Duplicate & original pages
We would like the option to generate the "Office Duplicate" of the Trust receipt on a separate page to the original.
When emailing the receipt directly to clients they get confused receiving both the original and copy on the same page.

Have more Contract Status such as Hold, Contract Issued, Contract sent to Vendor, Contract Date, Cooling off Expiry date, Unconditional
It would be good if we could have more contract status rather than accepted, unconditional and settled. It helps in reporting when using the Projects App when dealing with multiple contracts in the one project.

Change Floorplan place holder
At the moment the floor plan place holder is a square 1:1 which makes it really hard for floorplan layouts for acreage properties especially.
We would like Rex to implement the standard landscape place holder for Floor Plans.

Linking surburbs in the match profile into areas
I'm sure in other areas of NZ it must be just as much time wasting as it is in Christchurch to list all the suburbs each time you set up a match for properties. Could there be a way of making our own areas or REX could set them up, for example, East and West of Christchurch as some people don't want to live on the East due to Earthquake damage or some people not caring where they live in the city, it is a lot of suburbs to list each time you are setting up a match. Creating a…

Availability of more fonts
To enable greater customisation within the brochure design mode, and when creating letter templates and reports, it would be great to have access to a wider selection of fonts. For example, my agency's brand font is "Exo", which is a freely available font.
55 votesHi all,
We’re looking into adding support for custom fonts for brochures and letters – we can package these fonts into the PDF’s if you have a valid font license to allow for that.
Emails aren’t going to work as they require the font to be installed on the recipients machine to render correctly.
