Contacts Advanced Search

Step-By-Step Instructions

3. Choose the desired search criteria. You may add more items to your search by clicking on the + button on the right. Make sure to choose the necessary and/or field to expand or limit your search. When you have all the desired criteria, select Search:
4. By default, your search will yield results for all profile types. Note the option to search only by Individual Responsible Parties, if desired. You can modify your Advanced Search criteria with the + button or trash symbols and then select Search. You can also use and/or conditions between each search item to get different results. Select Basic Search at any point to navigate out of Advanced Search mode.
5. Once you have your desired list, you can use the select all button to select the group of contacts. Each contact will have a blue checkmark in the box next to their name. Next, Select Bulk Actions to Add to Commitment, Email, Export Contacts as Spreadsheet, Invite to Investor Portal or Send Contacts via Email:
