Hi 

i would like to select all the leads and contacts with "AI" in their job title, of course, i obtain unconsistent results, like '"emAIl" or MAINtain". i remember using in the past a special charactere to be able to have relevant results. Don't remember if it was / or something similar. Do anyone has an idea? Many thanks by advance

Hey @Letty - If I understand correctly, you are looking for standlone instances of "AI", as in you would want AI Admin returned but not Email Admin.

While we can't condition records for such a search, we did find success using the Match module. You would want to match the object against itself and then set your Match conditions to SF ID & Title.

For the comparison type on Title, you'd want to use RegEx and this formula: (?<=\s|^)AI(?=\s|$). This formula will discover all instances where AI exists with a space before or after the term. When viewing the results file, all Single Match Records should be the list you are looking for.

Let us know! Thanks.

Hi!

Thanks for your quick answer! can i set it up in Modify Module? i have tried to create a formula template but got an error, could you send me a screenshot for example? Many thanks by advance

This process would just be to find the matches, so you'd have to use a module that involves matching records to themselves, not just a record selection criteria, or in Modify's instance, a transformative formula.What is the action you want to take on the records ultimately once you identify them?
