Mailing List for last season's campers

Top  Previous  Next

Let's say you want to generate a mailing list for everyone who camped last season (or during any particular dates), removing duplicates. You don't want to include anybody who wasn't here all last season. This is easily done with the following steps:

1. Go to Reports / Mailing Labels

2. Check the options "Use reservations..." and "Filter out duplicate..."

3. Go into Reservation Filtering...

4. Check "Filter by Date".

5. Select "Start date" or "Start-to-end", depending on which is more appropriate, and enter the date range needed.

6. Hold down the Ctrl key and click the "Checked In" and "Checked Out" items under Reservation Status to select both of them (assuming you don't want the cancelled ones, etc.).

7. Click OK.

That should give you the list you want, and you can print or export it (or go ahead and print labels if that's your goal anyway). Remember that you can also sort by any column needed just by clicking on the header for that column.

Note: In step 6 you may also want to include Day Pass if those apply to you, and possibly even Inquiry and Waiting List if it's a promotional mailing.

Note that the duplicate removal is based on customer records, not customer names. If you still see duplicates with "remove dups" checked then there must be multiple customer records with the same information in them. These can be fixed by using the Merge function in the Find Customer dialog.
