Search tips
While the list filters are a great way to create reports and find Contacts based on specific filters, you can always use the normal search box in the top menu bar to find Contacts, Projects, Sales Opportunities, and even notes or emails you have stored in your account. We sometimes refer to that search as the 'global search’. Just start typing the name of the record you’re looking for example and see the results pop up.
Use an ampersand (&) when you’re uncertain of your search and it will be treated as a separator. This means that if you search for A&B, it will search for all A’s and B’s as well as AB.
You can choose to see results in all categories or you can use the tab to narrow it down just to the specific type (Contacts, Opportunities, Projects, or Notes/Emails).
These are some of the things you can search for to find Contacts:
- Street Address
- Town
- City
- Postal/ZIP code (you need to remove any spaces for this to work)
- Phone number (after typing 5 digits or more)
- Custom text Fields (however you do need to enter the full value - Capsule can’t find results based on partial Custom Field values)
- The ‘About’ section on all Contacts, Opportunities, or Projects
- The names of files attached to Contacts, Opportunities, or Projects
