Convert a contact to a customer

Create or link a customer in Sales and optionally a quote draft.

When a contact buys, turn it into a customer. On the contact page click "Convert to customer". BizCortex creates a customer in Sales or links an existing one, and can create a quote draft right away.

Steps

  1. 1. Choose the customer

    Under "Existing customer (optional)" pick a customer, or leave it empty. Empty: a customer with the same email is linked, otherwise a new one is created.

  2. 2. Options

    Tick "Create a quote draft" and "Set the stage to Won" as needed, and add a note.

  3. 3. Convert

    Click "Convert". You see "Customer created" or "Linked to customer", and "Quote draft created" if you asked for one. Use "Open customer" and "Open quote" to continue in Sales.

Good to know

  • After conversion the contact shows the badge "Customer" and the timeline shows a "Customer" entry.
