For those of us who do better with a visual calendar rather than a list of deadlines and due dates...
Have an dashboard feature that calendarizes actions from an action query, then puts them into an actual calendar that you can view (weekly or monthly) right on the dashboard. That way, I can see that I have a report due to XX foundation on January 1, and a grant deadline on January 15 for X foundation, etc. I have this in manual form on my wall, but it would be great to have this visual functionality built right into Raiser's Edge.
It is too difficult to try and sync RE with Outlook, and now that everyone is updating to Windows 7, Outlook 2010, etc., the RE/Outlook Integration won't work anyway. This would be a great opportunity to build more functionality right into the database.
