There is a way to filter for how is in object, to know if the seller has inserted or not something (for example /invitation to the fair in Milan/)?
Thanks in advance for any suggestion

    The difficulty you may face is that Activity is a super type of the types of Activities (includes email, task, appointment, phone call etc but not posts or notes), and as such it does not have all of the fields from the lower level Activities available to it - but does have some such as Subject.
     
    If you just need to look for something from the Opportunity and filter one of the fields that sit on the Activity supertype, then you can go to the Related tab, Activities (or add a Subgrid to the Opportunity form).
     
    If you are looking for specific Activities e.g. emails, then you can also add a subgrid, but as you are now looking at the subtype you will get more fields available to you (there is even a Category and Subcategory text field, that can be useful if you populate them).
     
    The additional difficulty may come from how the Activity may be linked e.g. via the Regarding field or via the To/From as (except for the Timeline and the Related->Activities [or you building a custom control]) you can't get both into the same grid/view together.

    Hi Goloknath and thanks for reply.
    I'm talking about all the mails, activities and appointments that we insert in the opportunities and that we can view in the time line of any opportunity.
    I'm searching a way to filter all these (divided by type obviously), that have some word that I indicate ...... I'm trying to know if I've forgotten to send the invitation for the Milan fair to some of my customers.
    Can you let me have some link where I can learn how to?

    Hi,
     
    If you don't mind pls share bit more information. If you want to filter the Phone call and email activities ideally those can be performed by individual so you can traverse accounts through user because ideally accounts directly can't dial or email. Thanks!

    Hi,
     
    Are you trying to filter activities such as emails based on their content containing certain information?
    For example, filtering emails that contain Milan in the body of the email.
     
    Best Regards,
