We’ve just released a new version of Insightly with dramatically improved filtering capability for building lists. The new filters apply to lists of contacts, organizations, opportunities, projects and leads.
New Filter Operators
Text fields now have the following operators: Equals, Not equal to, Less than, Greater than, Less or equal, Greater or equal, Contains, Does not contain, Starts with, Is Empty, Is Not Empty.
Drop down fields now allow you to choose one of the option values along with operators: Equals, Not equal to, Is Empty, Is Not Empty.
Date fields now allow for: Equals, Not equal to, Less than, Greater than, Less or equal, Greater or equal, Is Empty, Is Not Empty.
Relative Dates in Filters
One of the biggest features we’re excited about is what we are calling ‘relative dates’ in filters. When you’re filtering by a date field, instead of picking a specific date to filter by, you can now type in a relative date value like ‘this week’, ‘next week’, ‘last month’, ‘3 months ago’, ‘last quarter’, ‘next 90 days’, ‘last year’ – and Insightly will determine what date range that represents each time you use that filter.
This means for example you don’t have to create a new filter each new week if you want to look at what contacts were created in the last week, you just type in ‘last week’ as the filter value, and each time you use that filter it will show you what was created in the last week, as shown below. We think that is a super powerful feature for date filtering and we know customers who do a lot of date filtering are going to love it.
Relative date support includes the following possible options:
