Access lead history post-conversion for improved follow-ups in CRM

Availability: All editions except Free
DCs: All

Release Plan: It is rolled out in a phased manner and the feature availability is dependent on the revamped Timeline feature release.

Hello everyone,

After conversion, you can now view your lead's history and interactions in the Contacts, Accounts, and Deals modules as well.

The importance of viewing lead history post conversion

Let's say you've had multiple interactions with a prospect - let's name her Chris Paxton - over the course of two weeks, and all your calls, meetings, and other interactions are recorded within her details page. Once she's converted within CRM from a lead to contact, she's assigned to a follow-up rep for after-sale support. However, because she's no longer a lead, the rep can't find many details about her pre-conversion interactions.

Even though CRM carries over the lead's notes, attachments, and activities to the Contacts module, these items aren't arranged chronologically, which ultimately hinders the follow-up process.

View lead history

It's precisely to overcome this challenge that we came up with this improvement. Now you can view your lead history and interactions post-conversion in the Contacts, Accounts, and Deals modules.

That is all for the announcement. You can share your feedback in the comments section below.
