Using Advanced Filters

Availability

All editions of Zoho Workerly

The advanced filter is a powerful search tool that enables you to extract valuable information in no time - information, which could otherwise take you much longer to find out. With a regular filter, your search is based on field values - for example, all temps who are from "California". This is pretty straightforward and ordinary. Whereas with advanced filters, you can run intelligent searches based on the activities associated with the records, such as temps "that have no open jobs assigned to them". Or "jobs without any notes for the last 6 months".

When the criteria for advanced filters are based on priorities such as jobs, notes and emails rather than just field values, your chances for discovering valuable information is much higher. When you use intelligent combinations of the available criteria, advanced filters truly work like magic.

Advanced filters not only enable you to discover quick insights but also follow up on the results obtained. For example, you have discovered temps that have gone unnoticed. You have filtered out jobs that need your attention. But what next?
