Ability to create open activity view based on data field in Account

Ability to create open activity view based on data field in Account

Our users deal with several different industries or type of accounts (banks, grocery stores etc).  

They want to make calls or follow-up on open activities for an account type.  Today they want to only call or follow-up on tasks associated with banks.

How can I create a view where I use data fields from account, such as account type as the filter.  I need the ability to save this view and re-use.

Thanks
