One of the major topic with CRM is the data quality. To improve it, you start from the beginning, when entering manually the data. To support this, it would be great to be able to add a help text to the properties even in the create forms for contacts, companies, deals etc.

So, just add the possibility of a rich text line in the record creation forms. Thank you.

Absolute must! Especially for clients manding more complex processes in larger CRM systems.
