Contact Groups

 
 

 



Contact groups are used to collect customers and/or suppliers together for various tasks such as producing a mailing. A group is identified by its name and description, both of which are listed in this window.

Creating A Group
To create a new group, click the New button. This will take you to the Group Members window, where you will be able to set up the group name, description and membership.

Editing A Group
To display and edit the members of an existing group, click on its line in the list, and then click the Display button. This brings up the Group Members window, where you are free to alter the membership of the group, or even the group name and description.

Searching for Groups
The Search button allows you to search through the current list of groups, in either the Group Name or Group Description details. The search does not need to be an exact match - for instance, you could search for 'Plymouth' in group descriptions to pick out any and all groups who have the word 'Plymouth' as part or all of their description.

Sorting The List
You will notice that the top of each column has two arrowheads beside the column name. These are sort arrows, and allow you to alphanumerically re-order the list based on that column. The upward arrowhead orders the column from a to z. The downward arrowhead orders the column from z to a. When you click on an arrowhead, the other arrowheads disappear to indicate that you are sorting the list based on the order in that column. To un-sort the list, click on the arrowhead again, and all the arrowheads will reappear.
