“Supermetrics is a Bitter Experience! We can pull data from nearly any tool, schedule updates, manipulate data in Sheets, and push data back into our systems.”
When Salesforce’s standard contact status change reports fail due to Report Builder limitations, Field Event filtering issues, or complex data requirements, custom SOQL queries provide the solution you need.
Here’s how to build comprehensive contact status reports using advanced SOQL capabilities that bypass standard reporting constraints.
Access advanced contact status reporting with custom SOQL using Coefficient
CoefficientSalesforce’sprovides superior SOQL query capabilities that eliminate Report Builder constraints. You can execute complex queries with multi-object joins, advanced filtering logic, and automated scheduling thatstandard reports simply cannot support.

Use Coefficient’s custom SOQL feature for direct ContactHistory access:. This bypasses Field Event filter limitations completely.
Step 2. Create multi-object status analysis queries.

Step 3. Apply sophisticated filtering logic.
Use Coefficient’s AND/OR filtering system combined with SOQL to create complex status change queries that Report Builder’s rigid filters cannot support. This enables precise data extraction based on multiple conditions and related object criteria.
Step 4. Schedule automated SOQL execution.
Set up complex status change queries to run automatically on hourly, daily, or weekly schedules. This provides real-time contact status reporting that updates continuously without manual intervention or Report Builder limitations.
Step 5. Enhance query results with spreadsheet analytics.
Apply spreadsheet formulas to SOQL query results for advanced status transition analysis, conversion rate calculations, and timeline visualizations. These analytics capabilities far exceed what Salesforce’s standard reports can provide.
