Hi,

I have the requirement to store multiple hobbies and/or interests for a contact. These should then be used to be able to lookup all contacts that share a common interest, e.g. Golf and to invite them to an event.

Any proposals how to solve that?

I first thougt of creating a new entity for hobbies to create a list of all hobbies like a product catalogue. Then I'd like to integrate a hobbies box to the contacts form, which shows all hobbies related to this contact and allows to select/link multiple hobbies to this contact... But this doesn't really work out, because it only allows to create new instances of hobbies and not to link existing ones.

I also thouhgt about:

- Hobbies drop down field

- Lookup field to hobbies entity

But both are not an option, because only one single hobby can be selected.

Also marketing lists are not really the solution I have in my mind.

Any advice would be highly appreciated ;)

Thx in advance

Thomas

Thomas,

Either N:N Native or manual one using intersect table.

You can use intersect table if you need more info and field inside.

Use the native CRM one if you only want to link them together.

Hope this helps.

Thanks.

Nice! I think that such questions for discussion bring society closer together. I have a hobby - it's hunting, especially for the elks. I can talk about this all day and all night. It would be interesting to see like-minded people. To whom it is interesting, I often turn to Righthunting, click here for info, for amazing reviews about new products in the world of hunting technologies, in the recent fortunate enough to find mega convenient Who knows, he will understand
