The AND function in searches

[g2computersolutions]

I'm trying to generate a list of prospects in certain zipcodes. I want the resulting list to include about 5 different zipcodes and want them to be in a single list.

I don't seem to have the ability in CommitCRM to do an AND when putting in the zipcodes.

How would you do this?

Hi,

When generating reports for specific zipcodes, multiple values cannot be selected for the report, unless a range option is used to only show a range of zipcodes like 11000 & 11100. This would suggest the need to create a separate report for each zip code; however, if you need to create a report that shows a list of accounts from a 5 zipcode area, we suggest using the following method:


Using the filter bar, you can show a list of customers with a specific zip code.
When you have filtered the list, you can use the batch update option (Accounts menu > Tools > Batch Update) , to add a value to an unused field for the whole list.
Once this is done for all 5 zip codes, you can generate a report that only shows accounts that have the value you've placed in the unused field.


Let us know if this helps.

Wow, another work-around. Pretty soon, I will need a work-around to deal with my work-arounds.

I suppose this would, but I seems rather premitive and makes it more difficult to work with my prospect list of over 1,000 records across about 20-30 different zipcodes.
