    Business challenge – determine which customers do not have a logged phone call within the last 7 days.

    I’ve crated the following formula:

    (case when {call.completeddate}>(TRUNC(SYSDATE) – 7) then 1 else 0 end)

    When this formula is in the results, along with {call.compoleteddate} and (TRUNC(SYSDATE) – 7), I will see the results like:

    Call Date = 7/16/2015

    Date – 7 = 7/21/2015

    Formula = 0

    then

    Call Date = 7/27/2015

    date – 7 = 7/21/2015

    Formula = 1

    Therefore, it seems like the formula is correct.

    When I add the formula to Criteria | Summary as a Summary Type = Sum, field = Formula (Numeric) and Description = is 0; the results are not correct. Customer records with phone calls after 7/27/2015 are returned.

    Any ideas would be great!

    Another way to achieve this would be setting Criteria > Summary subtab, with the following:

    Summary Type = Maximum

    Field = Call Fields… Phone Call Date is not after 7 days ago

    Hello jessie

    You can create a Customer Saved Search and try the following:

    1. Under Criteria tab > Standard subtab, add the following filter:

    Activity Fields … (Joined fields) > Activity Type : Is Any Of = Phone Call

    2. Under Criteria tab > Summary subtab, set the following criteria:

    Summary Type = Maximum

    Field = Formula (Text)

    Formula = CASE WHEN max(nvl({activity.date},TO_DATE(’01/01/1900′,’MM/DD/YYYY’))) MATCH

    3. Under Results tab > Columns sub tab, add the following fields:

    ID (Summary Type = Group)

    Company Name (Summary Type = Group)

    Activity: Type (Summary Type = Group)

    Activity: Date (Summary Type = Maximum)

    Note: Add more Customer fields as necessary.

    4. Click Save and Run.

    This should show the Customers without Phone Call records within 7 days, and the last created Phone Call Record. I hope this helps.

    @moonparas Thank you for your reply. I was not able to get this to work.

    To test / learn, I placed CASE WHEN max(nvl({activity.date},TO_DATE(’01/01/1900′,’MM/DD/YYYY’))) MATCH works. I would have thought it should be Is = MATCH.

    Would you be able to provide a suggestion on what I might be doing wrong?
