Create a task activity for multiple records

Posted on by 415

I would like to create a task for multiple accounts.  I tried a quick campaign but task isn't an activity listed.  If I select multiple accounts the task is not enabled.

    I don't see tasks under the Campaign either

    Hi hockylady

    You can add multiple accounts in marketing list then create a task and set regarding field to the marketing list you created,

    This will give you only one task for multiple accounts.

    Hi HockeyLady

    You can bulk create Tasks with a Campaign, but not with a 'Quick Campaign'

    Kindly tick 'Yes' to Verify :)

    Best Wishes, Raz

    Hi,

    You can't do it that way, but there there is a pretty easy work around.

    Create a new On Demand workflow that runs on account. The workflow will create a task with whatever details you want. Now you need to get a list of the accounts, either in a view or through the advanced find. Select the accounts you want (or all) and then you can run that workflow for all of them at once. This will give you a task for each account.

    Hope this helps! I'd appreciate if you'd mark this as Answering your question.

    Thanks,

     Aiden
