Search for a company by individuals name

Since the latest "upgarde" I am unable to search for customer data by contact persons name. In our jobs we use the individuals name not the company as a reference for us to invoice. 
How do I search for peoples names to find what the company name is ?

Hi @Splatmarker 

 

So we can investigate this further, can you please confirm if you're trying to search for the contacts by customer name while creating the invoice or in the Contacts List?  

Kind regards,
Komal

Hi @Splatmarker 


Unfortunately, that won't be possible. You can only trigger the results in contact search option by the company name and not the contacts saved for that company. Please feel free to reach out if you have further questions. 

Kind regards,
Komal

Re: Search for a company by individuals name

Thank you for your reply.

you used to be able to search that way prior to "upgrade"

It seems like quite an oversite that I cannot search my own data by any parrticular feed.
