Filter client records in client management

Your firm may have thousands of clients, making it difficult to swift through to find the type of clients that you need. Filters help you narrow down clients to your exact preference. You can set filters according to any desired columns until you have the perfect setup. For example, if you prefer to only see clients for your office location then you can set the filter to show only clients associated with your office.
If you frequently use a particular filter or combination of filters, then you can save those filters and reuse them at any time without selecting them individually from the list each time you want to filter. For example, if you frequently send invites to clients from your office location only, then you can use filter clients from your office location only and add another filter for the
Not Invited
connection status. After you select both filters, you can save the filter and reuse it at any time. When creating a filter, you are creating it for yourself only and not for other users at the firm.

  5. Once you select the filter option, select anywhere outside the menu to exit the filter menu.

Notes

Selecting
All Eligible
clients causes the bulk operation to only target eligible clients that are currently filtered and/or searched. Eligible clients outside the current filter won’t be included in bulk operation. This can be especially useful when you only want to send invites/letters/questionnaires to clients that are linked to a specific Owner or your office location.
You will see no matching clients if your filter doesn’t have any applicable clients. You may not see clients for filtered results if the search results don’t match any clients in the filtered list.
If your firm has previously enabled and saved at least one record to a custom field in FileRoom, that custom field will appear as a filter option in
Client Management
. The custom field will continue to appear as a filter option (whether enabled or disabled) until no records remain for this field.
