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!

Group SMS from app
After registering attendees at an open home on the Pocket by Rex app, it would be great at the end of the open home to then have an option to send a group text to all the attendees (still using a template).Rather than having to do it individulaly, or waiting to get back to the office to do a mass SMS on the full website.
15 votesThanks for the suggestion! This feature is now available in Pocket. You can access it in an Open Home, tap the “•••” menu, selecting Bulk Message and then selecting SMS.

First name default for Vendor Reports
It would be great if the Vendor Reports were set to default to a First Name only. They currently default to Full Name.
It's better for privacy if the First Name is set as a default for these.

'View all in a list' to be available for searches with more than one result
This used to be available before the search bar redesign but now creates a lot more clicks to get to a list of smaller complexes or maybe two contacts that you want to merge. The cut off is currently three, when four or more results are returned you get the 'View all in a list' appearing otherwise you are forced to go to Properties > Properties > Filter > Apply Filter or Contacts > All Contacts > Filter Contacts > Apply Filter. For such a small change this would be a great time-saver for us.
15 votesAs part of the global search overhaul we released last year, you're able to open a list when more than one result is returned, allowing you do bulk merges, etc.

Inclusion of distinguishing features next to OFI attendees name when adding their feedback
When adding OFI attendees it is a necessity that the drop down box of existing buyers in our database include more information than just a name. e.g we have 15 people named John Smith in our database, when the drop down box shows 15 existing clients we do not know which one is correct and therefore create another duplicate file. This can be easily avoided by having the contact name, and their mobile number as a distinguishing feature in the drop down box

Automatically add contacts from Homepass OFI's into a Rex Mailing List
It would be really useful for any contact checked in from Homepass to be added to a mailing list ‘Homepass” and also tagged “Homepass”. Assuming that the coding checked to see if they were already on the list to avoid duplication (in the event that a person comes through a home opens twice or has been previously checked in elsewhere)
That way we can simply send the ‘Homepass’ list our OFI guide each week to ensure they’re kept up to date and not lost in the system.
14 votesHi Everyone,
Thanks for voting! Going forward we will be adding a tag to any contacts updated or added by Homepass. The tag will be called ‘homepass’.
You will then be able to add your mailing list by filtering this tag and adding the mailing list. If you require help with filtering and applying the mailing list as a mass action please contact our support team for help content.
The reason we will not automatically add a mailing list is because not all contact will want to be automatically added to your mailing list.
If you would like an ‘add to mailing list’ checkbox in the Homepass application please contact Homepass to suggest this to them.

Hide feature for reversed trust transactions
It would be great if we could have a toggle so you could ‘hide’ reversed trust transactions. When viewing a ledger with multiple reversals it is very messy and hard to read.

Add ability to search for a key number
The option to have a key number saved in Rex is a great idea, but without the ability to 'search' for a key number it is fairly useless.
Please add the option to search for a key number :)
13 votesAs part of the new Key Registry release, you can now search for keys by key number!
There’s also a bunch of other exciting improvements, including the ability to check keys in & out, support for multiple keys, and more.

Ability to present different Agents Commission structures
Hi,
we like most agencies have many agents, who all have different commission structures. We also sell different products where the commissions rates vary.
Is there a way to pre-load these commission structures that would be like the pre-set agency commission, so that these important fees are set once and then just selected by the Administrator with no room for errror.13 votesYou can now set the default commission amount for an agent under Settings > Commissions > Agent Defaults!
In addition you can set up default Commission Structures for things like packages offered by your agency.

Delete Bulk Events - Open Homes
Seeing as we are able to upload recurring open home times - shouldnt there be a way to delete the recurring? At the moment you have to manually go in and delete every event individually. Can we have an option to be able to select the events in one go and remove them?
13 votesYou can now delete multiple recurring open homes with the click of a button! Thank you for the feedback :)

Merge Event Details to SMS/Emails
I would like to create an email/sms template to notify vendors and prospective buyers of OFI times, however the event details are not a merge field. Can you please include event details as a merge item for sms and email templates.
12 votesGood news: we have recently added extra merge tags to accommodate this.
Listing (Marketing) > Next open home date
Listing (Marketing) > Next open home time
Listing (Marketing) > Next open home agent

Vendor Report
When previously doing the vendor reports we entered the feedback from the OFI's on individual contacts, but it took too long. I then contacted you about this, and you recommended this procedure: http://www.rexsoftware.com/feature-release-separate-feedback-for-ofi-attendees/
This was great however the feedback doesn't come out as nice as doing it individually. See the latest open home feedback on the attached report.
Is there anything we can do to get the feedback looking like earlier entries in the attached report?
11 votesHi James,
Thanks for your suggestion. The developers took note and added some padding to the vendor reports. You’ll notice that theres now a line break between each item of feedback from an open home.
Thanks again for the suggestion – keep them coming! -
ofi times need to automatically fill
Currently you put in your ofi times to go to internet portals. Why is it that you then need to add your ofi time doing ofi feedback. This should automatically fill when opened.
11 votesAs of last week, when creating OFI feedback, it will automatically fill with the date and time of the last open home conducted!

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.
