Managing companies/accounts for opportunities
Last updated
Managing companies and accounts is integral to tracking CRM opportunities, which represent potential sales linked to these entities. Administrators can efficiently handle this from the Admin Portal under Domain > Companies, where they can add, edit, or delete company details such as name, type, website, and address.
New companies can be added manually or imported in bulk from a CSV file, and data can be synchronized with NetSuite. Additionally, companies can be exported in PDF or CSV formats for reporting. This organized management of companies ensures a smooth process for maintaining business relationships and leveraging sales opportunities within the CRM module in the User Portal.
Opportunities in the User Portal's CRM Module are linked or associated with companies. Opportunities represent potential sales to companies that are already tracked in your domain. A company (or account) can be an entity with whom you have an existing business relationship or a business prospect.
