The steps would be

  • Lead created

  • Sales person attends Lead appointment,

    • creates sale

  • Sales person needs more information from another source

    • creates Pre book for installer (note job has not been won at this stage)

  • Installer attends Pre book appointment

  • Customer accepts order - Pre book should be completed


Creating a Pre book

  • Options
