Ability to choose schema when there are multiple objects with the same name exists
Currently when SQL code is formatted, it will pick the first schema, if there are multiple objects with same name but having different schemas. It would be good if the choice is given to the user to choose which schema.objectname to use in this case.
Also it's better if we can exclude certain schema's to be considered during code format. (But want to see the intellisense. Only to exclude them during the code format)

Ability to exclude certain objects (Procedures/Functions/Files...etc.) from being processed for a rule
Currently there is no way to tell Code Analysis to ignore this specific object for a specific rule which has led to several false positives and wasted time re-investigating how to address the issue in the object only to come to the same conclusion as before that this is one of the rare cases where breaking that rule is ok.
My example is we have one stored procedure out of a thousand where the use of a NVARCHAR(2) makes sense and is actually more efficient then switching to a NCHAR(2) for what the code needs to do. Unfortunately the procedure…

For the SQL Compare tool allow to copy warnings texts
My idea is for the SQL Compare tool: when the warnings are displayed, it would be helpful to be able to copy text of these warnings to deal with them

Suggest common day and time constants when a date/datetime field appears as a criteria
When a date or datetime field appears in a WHERE clause, include Suggestions of the following nature and dynamically substitute them upon selection with the nondeterministic or deterministic equivalents:
(I couldn't get my table to format nicely here - please see the copy in the uploaded file.)
(If it's currently 11am on Friday August 20 2021...)

now GETDATE() CAST('11am 20 August 2021' AS DATETIME)
today CAST(GETDATE() AS DATE) CAST('20 August 2021' AS DATE)

Find invalid objects in script
Highlighting invalid objects is a nice feature, but it would also be nice to "find" invalid objects in a script.
Running SQL Format on a script with an invalid object in it runs fine and gives no error, it just doesn't prefix the object (like a table) with the schema.
It would be nice to have a quick and easy way to "go to next invalid object" or even for when you run SQL Format to have it bring up a warning saying "this/these object/s appear to be invalid".3 votes -
Full support for Azure SQL Managed Instance in SQL Prompt
SQL Prompt should fully support Azure SQL Managed Instances. This includes offering suggestions for all objects (such as system functions, tables, views, etc) which are usable in Managed Instances. For example, CURRENTTIMEZONE and CURRENTTIMEZONE_ID (which were recently implemented in SQL Prompt, but only for Azure SQL Database). All other functions I've tried seem to be working fine, but it would be nice to know that Azure SQL Managed Instance is officially supported by SQL Prompt.

Fix the confusing multiple usage of your company name
You should fix the use of multiple versions of your name (Red Gate | Red-Gate | Redgate | redgate | red-gate) across all software and communications. See attached picture.
We try to promote your products in our consulting company, but everyone uses a different name to refer to your company.

Separate ALIAS Alignment - table vs. column
Aligning based on column-alias makes for much better readability. When turned OFF, because some long-named table's alias pushes the TABLE-alias way to the right, all other table aliases follow it...into the NON-VISIBLE area (when using multiple vertical tabs).
Please SEPARATE these into TWO options:
. Align Column Aliases - on/off
. Align Table Aliases - on/offTHERE IS A BUG TO FIX HERE TOO: If a UDF is bounded by "--SQL Prompt formatting off/on" the TABLE ALIAS position REMAINS as if the UDF's alias was in it's SQL Prompt position, NOT where the excluded code has it! NASTY.
You could…

drill down drill up from object display
In SQL Prompt, in the pop-up display for an object, allow drill down from an object reference in the popped-up display.
In the new feature showing dependencies, implement drill down (from the "uses" section) and drill up (from the "used by" section)

Insert Snippet on New Query
Automatically insert a snippet as soon as you start a New Query in SSMS. I want all my developers to always start every script with a comment block with their username, date and a description of what the script is supposed to do. A shared snippet is already handy for this, but adding this could make it easier to build that habit for new team members.

Use formatter to create table of contents
It would be great to be able to use the formatter to create an automated table of contents based on some recognized commented pattern. For example, I could begin each section of code with:
--******
-- Title of section
--******Then after using the formatter it would see the commented section and add the line number for each section in the beginning of the script. I imagine something similar to MS Word's auto generated table of contents.

F12 to Create Table Script
F12 to Script views and stored procedures as ALTER is one of my favorite features. I would love it if F12 when I am on a table generates a CREATE TABLE script for that table.

Support for MS Dataverse / CDS
Add support so SQL Prompt will work in SSMS when connected to MS Dataverse / CDS (Common Data Service - Dynamics really).
Right now, it fails since the (meta)data exposed probably isn't quite as complete as on a "full-scale" SQL Server database

"Insert Semicolons" feature should add Semicolon after "BEGIN"
When using a BEGIN/END block, the "Insert Semicolons" feature adds a semicolon after "END" command, but not after the "BEGIN" command.
One reason why this should be done, is the use of the THROW statement, which requires the previous statement to be terminated with a semicolon.
Technically it is still runnable code, but, SSMS (as of version 18.8) sees it as a syntax error (see screenshot).
I don't know which is the appropriate fix...waiting for SSMS to fix the syntax error it shows (but I doubt they will since the non-use of semicolons is deprecated), or if it's appropriate for…
