📌 Note
The Date Filters are dynamic and automatically update the widget results based on the set date parameters.
👉 For Example
If you configure the filters for a 1-month period, the widget will continuously add new results each day as they meet the criteria.
Creating a Group
To refine your client search results, you can combine multiple filters from General, Financial, or Custom Filters. This allows you to create highly targeted client groups based on specific criteria.
Select a Filter Type:
Choose the filter category you wish to use — General Filters, Financial Filters, or Custom Filters — from the dropdown menu.
Set Filter Conditions
After selecting the filter type, a field of available conditions relevant to that filter will display. Continue refining until no further fields appear.
👉 For example:
General Filters might include age range, adviser, review dates, or marital status.
Financial Filters may include net worth, income, or superannuation balance.
Custom Filters will show any custom fields created in your Fact Find.
Once you select the Apply Filter button, a list of clients matching the chosen conditions will show in the Unselected Clients column, allowing you to review and refine your selection further.
📌Note
If a client’s name does not appear, ensure that their email is entered in the Fact Find. This step is crucial for successful group creation.
👉 Repeat the process to apply multiple filters.
Each additional filter further narrows the search results, allowing you to focus precisely on clients matching all selected criteria.
📌Note
The more filters you add, the fewer clients will meet the conditions and populate the list—keep this in mind when creating your group.
If clients aren’t appearing in the list, review your filters and double-check the client’s information in Fact Find to ensure they aren’t accidentally excluded.
Once applied, all active filters will display. You can remove or adjust filters as needed by selecting the X at the end of the filter row.
💡Tip
Using multiple filters is ideal for creating targeted client groups, such as clients aged 55+, with upcoming reviews, or holding specific insurance policies.
This process helps generate accurate, meaningful client lists for reports, campaigns, or focused advice delivery.
Review and finalise your client group by previewing the filtered client list. To add clients to your group, tick the checkbox next to each client in the Unselected Clients column.
Alternatively, you can use the master checkbox beside the Client Name heading to select all clients that match your filter criteria. Once selected, these clients will automatically move to the Selected Clients column.
Select Save Group to save it as a new group.
📌Note
You can choose Save As to create variations.
A confirmation prompt will open, allowing you to enter a Group name.
💡 Tip
Assign a clear and descriptive name to your Client Group during the final step when prompted—this helps you easily identify it later
Your saved group name will automatically become available in the Select Filter Group
📌Note
Any group you create here will also be available in the Mail Merge & SMS sections. Likewise, groups created in the Mail Merge and SMS sections will automatically appear in Email, ensuring consistency across both communication tools.
Mail Merge
SMS
You can also use the Group to send an email by selecting it from the To button on the Send Email screen.
Choose the group from the Send To > Select Group drop-down.
Select Apply Filter.
📌Note
The client list below theApply filter button will not change
The selected Group will be added as recipients of the email.
➕Additional Group Management Features
⚖️Static vs. Dynamic Groups
In AdviserLogic, groups are static by default, meaning they do not automatically update when client data changes. However, the platform supports both static and dynamic approaches to group management, giving you flexibility depending on your needs.
👉 Static Groups (Default)
Once a group is created and saved, it remains unchanged unless manually updated. This is ideal for scenarios where the group membership should stay consistent over time—such as communication lists for long-term clients or one-off campaigns.
🔄 Dynamic Groups (Manual Refresh)
If you require up-to-date group membership based on current client data:
Navigate to Group Management.
Open your saved group.
Select Apply Filter to refresh the list based on the latest criteria.
This will update the group as follows:
New clients who now meet the filter criteria will appear in the Unselected Clients section.
Existing clients who no longer meet the criteria will be removed from the Selected Clients section.
This dual approach allows you to maintain fixed client groups for stability or refresh them as needed to reflect the most current data—ensuring your communications remain targeted and relevant.
📝Edit Group
To edit an existing group navigate to the group management screen and select the group from the group search dropdown.
The group name will show in the Search Group Field, apply the requisite modifications, apply filter if needed and save.
🗐 Duplicate Group
From the Group Management section, select any group from the Search Group drop-down to create a duplicate group under a different name.
Choose the clients to populate the new group, and apply any additional filters. Then select the Save As Group button at the bottom of the screen.
A confirmation dialogue will request a new name for the group. Enter the new name for the duplicated group, and select OK to save.
⛔Delete Group
Select the group from the Search Group drop-down and then the Delete button at the bottom left of the screen to delete the group.
Selecting Delete will open a confirmation dialogue.
Selecting Yes will delete the group.
