  1. Click ‘Pipeline’ in the top menu
  2. This will bring up all of your Contracts and Opportunities at various stages including:
    Open Opportunities: Records created which are either future opportunities or are still in the pricing stage.
    Live Contracts: All currently-live contracts
    Historic Contracts: Contracts which have exceeded their end dates
    Lost Contracts: This will include contracts that were accepted and lost but also opportunities that were never won, and moved to a lost status.
    Comms Exceptions: Included contracts where there is no opportunity type or no payment terms assigned so no Commission can be calculated
    All: A view of all opportunities, regardless of status
  3. You can search the Pipeline using the fields at the top to narrow down the results. If you’re uncertain of the status of a contract or opportunity, it might be easier to select the ‘All’ view prior to searching.
