Find Advertising Agency
Use Find Agency to search for Agencies already in your database. Agency information is stored in the database by the fields completed in the Add - Agency process. When using the Find - Agency form, you search for a desired Agency using information stored in the database via these fields. Search results viewed on the List – Agency page display in columns, and each column of search results corresponds to a data field. Only a limited, pre-defined set of columns pertaining to Agency are available to you on the Find – Agency page.
Find
- To search for Advertisers already in your association's database, go to Modules>Advertising>Agencies>Find Agency. The Find - Agency page opens.
- For a more specific search, click the Advanced View check box. Expanded Boolean search options appear for the search criteria field. Use these search options to narrow your search results further.
- Click Go. A list of search results displays in the List - Agency page. If only one result comes of the search, the profile page for that result opens.
Note: The more specific you make your search criteria, the narrower the results returned are. A search for an Organization Name beginning with "F" returns more results than a search for an Organization Name beginning with "Full".
Find vs. Query
Most Finds and Queries in NetForum are run in CRM. The Find page is setup with a pre-defined set of columns (fields) versus a Query which allows you to select from any column in the search Table.
If you are not sure what you are looking for, use theNetForum wildcard character, the percent sign (%), to help you with your search. This is especially helpful when used in conjunction with the contains option on the Organization Name field.
