Creating Subopportunities


After the recurring event opportunity has been created, a number of subopportunities that represent each individual event in the series of events should be created.

When you have created the subopportunities, you may provide more detailed information, for example, notes, activities, contact information, and so on, about these opportunities. For more information, see Capturing Hospitality Opportunities.

This task is a step in Process of Creating Recurring Events.

To create subopportunities

  2. Click the link in the Name field, and then click the Sub Opportunities view tab.
  3. In the Sub Opportunities list, create a new record.

    The Name, Opportunity #, Arrival Date, Sales Stage, and Relationship type fields are automatically populated.
