CRM (Basic): Filter Templates
This page is for TaxDome Pro users only. Please switch the tab above to see TaxDome Lite related content.
Save time and improve your efficiency by filtering your lists—accounts, contacts, jobs, tasks, invoices, payments, time entries, or Inbox+ notifications—so that they show only what you need to see. You can apply as many filters as needed to fine-tune them.
Plus, you can save any of your selections as filter templates for later use—and even share them with your team!

How to Use Filters and Apply Them
Filters work the same for all lists. When you use filters to narrow down a list, you select them according to the type of data you’re looking for. For more about the filters for specific lists, follow the links:
- Accounts list filters
- Contacts list filters
- Docs filters
- Jobs list filters
- Tasks list filters
- Invoices list filters
- Payments list filters
- Time Entries list filters
- Inbox+ notifications list filters
- Wiki-Pages list filters
- Calendar list filters
To filter a list, click FILTER in the top-right corner, select the filters you want, then click APPLY. You can apply as few or as many filters as needed.
Once you’ve applied your selected filters, the list is narrowed accordingly. The selected filters are shown at the top of the Filter page. You can easily change the filters by adding or deleting ones; otherwise, click RESET to clear all of them to start fresh.
In case you’re wondering...
- When using multiple filters, AND logic applies: Each account in the list will meet all criteria selected.
- Filters remain the same when you leave and reopen the page.
- Your filters and your teammates’ filters won’t overlap.
Saving Filter Selections
Filters, especially advanced ones that require four or more criteria, take time to create. Save your most frequently used filter selections so that you don’t have to start from scratch each time.
Here’s how: Once you’ve made your filter selections, click the Save as template link, give the filter template a name, then click Save. You’ll then see the name displayed at the top of the Filter page.
Sharing Filter Selections
If you think your saved filter selections might be helpful to your teammates, go ahead and share the filter template by toggling on Public when saving it.
Keep in mind:
- Public filter templates can be created and deleted by a firm owner, Admin, or any employee with access rights to manage filter templates.
- You cannot edit a saved filter template; you’ll need to create a new one instead. When the template is applied, click the Save as template link again, enter a name for a new template, then change the Public setting as you like.
Coming soon: Filter templates will include relative dates: past 30 days, past 7 days, this/last week, this/last month, etc., to help you easily compare data to previous time periods.
Applying Filter Templates
Once you’ve created a filter template, access it by clicking the Filter templates link at the top of the Filter page. The filters templates marked Public are the ones you’ve shared with your teammates; the others are your private ones.
Deleting Filter Templates
When you don’t need a filter template anymore, go ahead and delete it. Click the Filter templates link at the top of the Filter page, find the template you no longer need, then click on the trash can icon to its right. Confirm by clicking Delete.
