A better way to manage and maintain your Target Lists. Target List Wizard allows you to keep lists up to date automatically using reports or workflows or manually from each of your records using the Target List subpanel. Also includes the ability to mass remove and also search for records that belong to a certain target list.
#2721 - Creating Unique Target Lists
Hello N-S Team, Can you advise if it possible to create unique target lists with your extensions where list data comes from multiple sources (Targets, Contacts, Accounts etc.) and where duplicate records may exist in say Targets and Contacts? i.e. I want a unique list without duplication. Many thanks, Nic

Hello,
I am not sure I understand your question. Do you mean that you want to make sure a contact is only in one target list?

"Do you mean that you want to make sure a contact is only in one target list?"
Essentially yes.
From what I understand of SuiteCRM when Targets are converted to Leads they remain a Target and the record is copied to the Leads module and the records associated creating a conversion path.
If I build a marketing list that pulls data from both Targets and Leads I want to make sure that I don't have the same record twice and send duplicate emails or make duplicate calls etc.
How do I ensure this? (if could be that I have misunderstood something).

Regarding calls, I'm not sure but with emails, there will never be duplicate emails from campaigns. In a campaign, emails are never sent twice to the same email address. Now, there is something quite interesting in your question and we might think about that. A new feature would be the capability to automatically remove targets or leads from a target list when they are converted.

So expanding on that feature a little further.
From what I understand ......
From what you are saying this is not currently supported which would make maintaining effective or clean Target Lists quite a challenge. Unless of course, I have misunderstood some functionality of SuiteCRM or your Extension.

It is possible to create a Workflow that can create a Target List and I can schedule a Call (en mass) from a Workflow. You don't need to export campaign data. There are numerous SuiteCRM extensions that can integrate directly with services like Mautic for example. Yes, I can see that last part requiring some customisation.
