View filter on more than 1 object?

Is it true that SFDC does not allow View Filters to be defined on fields from more than 1 object? 

 

For example, I have a custom object (Reservation) that is a child object in a Master/Detail relationship with the standard object Account.  Using the standard Account view, I could filter Reservation rows based on any of the Reservation field, but not any Account fields. 

 

What I want to do is create a custom view that would show all reservations for today for premiere customers.  But I can't find a way to include the Account.CustomerStatus__c in the filter logic.   In short, I want to filter rows of a custom object somewhat like dependant fields for lookups do at the field level.

 

Is there any way to do this, short of coding up a Visualforce page from scratch?

Yes you can probably try using the route of Formula fields and define a formula field in reservation which will bring the status of the Account on the reservation object.

Now you can create a view in reservation object and put filter on the the new formula field thus created.
