We are hoping to move our organisations Media contacts from the tried and trusted spreadsheet into Tessitura. However we are struggling to match one key piece of functionality Excel offers our Media team.
When they pull together a list for media releases or invites, while the list starts based on categories that can be represented in Attributes or the like, the list is then edited manually, adding and removing contacts based on the team’s business knowledge of Media organisations and position titles, to produce the final list.
While it’s great that List Manager offer the ability to manually add and delete records from the contents, the issue is that key pieces of information, Organisation and Business Title, aren’t displayed in the Contents screen (we use Salutation2 to store Organisation details). The team would have to complete extra steps by checking the Pop-Up Header, opening the record, or running an Output Set to obtain the Organisation and Position Title information.
Has anyone come up with a clever way to be able to edit Media lists quickly and easily based on information not displayed in the List Contents screen?
Also, I’d welcome any other information on how other organisations are successfully using Tessitura for their Media contacts.
Thanks
Kim
Hi there Kim,
Have you thought of having a Popup Header that could be used?
