Add or Edit a Lead Rejection Type

A lead is an opportunity that has been prequalified by your marketing or service department, associated to a sales stage with a Lead status type, and assigned to a sales representative. Sales representatives can either accept or reject a lead.

When sales representatives reject leads, they must select from a list of lead rejection types. Using this information, you can track why leads are being rejected.

  5. Do one of the following:
    • To add a lead rejection type, click New.
    • To add a new lead rejection type directly below an existing lead rejection type in the tree, select the existing lead rejection type and click New.
    • To edit a lead rejection type, click it in the tree.
  6. Enter a name for a new lead rejection type or edit an existing one in the Label column.
