To set up the Contact Life Cycle Stage, follow these steps:
Note:
- At least one status must remain in every stage.
- A maximum of 10 statuses can be added to any stage.
The Customer stage remains fixed and cannot be moved.
The Won and Lost statuses within the Customer stage cannot be removed.
Note: The Closed status (Won & Lost) is fixed as the final status and cannot be rearranged.
The Lead and Sales Qualified Lead stages are the default stages. They can be disabled but not deleted, and you can rename them if needed.
Contacts will move as follows based on the stages enabled or disabled:
- If the Lead stage is disabled, contacts move to Sales Qualified Lead.
- If the Sales Qualified Lead stage is disabled, contacts move to Lead.
- If both stages are disabled, contacts move directly to the final stage, Customer.
Note:
- You can add a maximum of 10 stages, including default stages.
- Duplicate stages or statuses are not allowed.
