  • [Qualify Lead] - This will change the status of the lead to "Qualified", meaning the lead has been confirmed as a valid or interested lead. Once the lead has been qualified you can then convert it into an account. If you have qualified the lead, the button will become a [Convert Lead] button.
  • [Convert Lead] - If a lead a is qualified this button will appear in lieu of the [Qualify Lead] button. Clicking [Convert Lead] will take you to the Convert Lead Screen.
  • [Edit] - This will allow you to modify the lead description.
  • [Delete] - This will delete the entry from the opentaps system.
  • [Reassign] - This will reassign the lead to another team member.

Sources

This section will show you edit the lead and indicates one or more sources which generated the lead. To add a source, select the appropriate type (for example "Cold call" or "Self Generated") from the drop down menu and click the [Add] button.

Custom Fields

Custom Fields are a new feature in opentaps 1.5.

Clicking the [Update] button next to the relevant field will take you to the edit contact information screen. To expire contact information so that it is no longer used, click the [Expire] button next to the relevant contact data. Please note: contact information is never erased, only removed from view/use.

The "Pending Activities" section lists activities that have been created but have not yet been completed, and details the activity's type, purpose, activity, status, scheduled date, and due date.

Clicking [New Event] will link you to the create event screen of the Activities section of opentaps CRM. Similarly, clicking [New Task] will link you to the create task screen of the Activities section.
