Create an opportunity

Prev Next

Creating an opportunity is a two-step process. The first step is to identify a potential donor or prospect for the pipeline using the Add to Discovery option. This option signifies that the donor could become a future opportunity. You can decide whether the individual in discovery should proceed as a real opportunity for your organization.

Once the prospect is identified as an opportunity, the second step is to add them to the opportunity process:

1. In the contact or organization record.

2. In the middle of the Summary tab, select Add to opportunity to create a new opportunity record.

You can also add an opportunity from a view of Opportunities.

  1. In the navigation pane, under Prospecting select Opportunities.

  2. In the view that opens, select New on the action pane.

  3. Fill in the required fields, marked with a red asterisk (*).

  4. Select Save on the action pane.
