Analyzing potentials pipeline - is it possible to create a report stating how many potentials drop off/are lost after which stage?
Hi, I want to check how many potentials turn into lost after each stage. I want to calculate the probabilities of winning a deal for each stage. How can I obtain such data? Example of what I'd like to see: - proposal - 40% are lost after this stage - negotiation - 20% are lost after this stage etc. Thanks, Bogdan

Contracts with multiple accounts
I work for a small business that does work with the federal government. On many of our contracts, we have a subcontract who works with us. I'd like to be able to link a contract to more than one account, but haven't found a way to be able to do this. The primary account would be the client (e.g., FBI), but would like to set up a secondary account for the subcontractor. Is there a way to do this that I just haven't figured out yet?

how to display fields specific to customer type (vs showing all fields for all customers) for leads, potentials, etc.
I have different customer types. And I need to collect/add different information depending on the type of customer. Is there a way to display in leads and/or potentials only the fields applicable to those types of customers. i would like to make it easier for my staff to enter information, and if they only see the required fields for each of type of customer, that would be easier. i already have separate sections for the info, but it's still too much to look at. if specifics help, i need to collect

Folder management within the Documents area
I am wondering if I am missing something. Within the CRM Documents if I create a folder (A) and a second folder (B), but now decide that B should be a sub-folder of A, I can't see how to move folders. Additionally, I can't seem to move documents across top level folders, I can move them anywhere within the the top level folder, but not outside of it to another folder. This seems like such a basic function that I am hoping I am just missing how to do that. Additionally, once a file is attached to

Dashboard Personalised to Current User e.g. Opportunity Stats, Lead Stats etc
Hi All, Forgive me if this a simple task - I cannot for the life of me understand how to do this..! Our company hierarchy is: Director --> Sales Manager --> Account Manager. I want the Account Manager to go to "Dashboards" and see their own pipeline by stage, pipeline by customer, lead stats etc. Currently, when they go into the "Opportunity" Dashboard, they see "Pipeline by Stage" - but this shows all pipeline for all users, not just their own stats. Anybody have any suggestions? Thank you in advance

Overwrite created date
Hi, When we imported about 300 leads from our existing CRM, we had to make a new field that had the leads original created date.

Map Dependency Fields Help
Hi, I have created dependency fields to minimize data entry errors by our reps but this has created an error of its own. For all of the parent field options that have more than one child field option that applies I also include none so it doesn't default to anything. But by doing this when a rep selects the parent field the child field switches from -none- to none making it a valid option when it really isn't. Can you please explain why this happens because 'none' isn't a true option within the

Change formatting of Emails 'mailto:' in Header of Leads and Contacts?
Hello List How can we change formatting of mmails 'mailto:' in header of Leads and Contacts? Today: href="mailto:angie.foo@example.com" Preferred: href="mailto:Angie Foo<angie.foo@example.com>" A simple tweak with access to render code.

Soft Pick List
When creating a new Task, the Subject field has an icon to the right that allows you to select from a pick list... yet it is not required that you use one of the defined options. It is the only Pick List field in Zoho that is set this way. In the Field Customization Area for Tasks, you can add different options to the Pick List, but there is no other indication of how to replicate this field implementation. Would be GREAT to add that capability to other Pick List fields, where there were suggested

Tracking Off-Line Activites
If I send a free product sample to 250 accounts, what is the best way to track this in Zoho? Likewise, If I send out 500 customized sales letters via snail mail, how do I import that info.

We would need to import them so that they would show up in order and in a visible spot. Our account base is not highly technical so these types of "old school" marketing
