Creating a CRM Search

Creating a CRM Search

CRM Search is a powerful feature of Giant Rocketship. Instead of hard-coding a Process Automation or Escalation Rule against fixed criteria, you can use a CRM Search to ensure that your rules dynamically adjust to the number and types of customers and services you have.

Just follow these steps to get started:

  1. Select CRM Search->Custom Searches in Rocketship Admin.
  2. In the Create New Search window enter your search criteria in the CRM Search* field.
  3. Enter text in the Description field (optional).
  4. Select Save New Entry.

Here is an example of creating a CRM search for All Prospects in Autotask:
