thankQ Help

You may wish to locate contacts that have a valid main address but have no Geo Coding. Once they are loaded onto the contact form they can be updated with their Geo code.

1.Select the power search under the Contact Geocode folder to locate Contacts with Valid Main Address that has no Geocode Data

When you first locate the contacts with no geo coding it is recommended to run these in alphabetical order of reduce the amount of contacts to approx 1,000 to 2,000

2.Add a statement from the Contact Naming folder and use the statement Surname/Organisation starts with ?

3.Click the tick box beside Add to highlighted condition so it becomes an AND statement with the previous statement

4.Click Add to add the statement to the chosen criteria

5.Add an Exclude statement to remove any part of the address that is empty

6.Untick the tick box and click Add

7.Click Count

8.Save the search in the appropriate folder

9.Click Finish to open these contacts

10.Click File | Admin | Geocode Contacts (this selection)

thankQ will connect to the Google Geocoding Service. If you have reached your limit for the day a message will display notifying of this.

The Geo Code information can be found on the Geo Location tab under Communication on a contact record
