    Hi,

    Disclaimer: I am using Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 Online.

    I have created a Marketing List : "Account marketing List" and added the members as you can see in the below image.

    Now when I open the Account form for A Store (sample) as seen in the below screenshot, I don't see the Marketing list in the Associated View of this account. Neither can I see the marketing list in the Look Up Records when I click on Add Existing Marketing List as you can see in the below 2 screen shots.

    Am I missing out on something. The question is, even if they are related, why can't I see it under the associated view or even add it manually using the look up records window?

    Best Regards,
    Gagandeep Singh

    Hi Gangandeep,

    Is the marketing list marked as a static or dynamic type? Looking on my test system I would say only the static type marketing lists appear in the look up view & the associated view.

    Regards,

    Paul is correct. The members of a dynamic marketing list are evaluated on demand and are not stored on the in the listmember table so it's not possible to see if a particular account/lead/contact is a member of a marketing list unless you open the marketing list member screen.
