Purpose:
The purpose of this article is to provide information to Outreach Users regarding the Opportunity List View.
Intended Audience:
- Outreach Users
Notes:
- Outreach recommends Users create an Opportunity in the CRM and sync it down to Outreach as Opportunity management platforms, such as Salesforce, have tools to define attributes such as deal close dates and amounts. For more information refer to the How To Sync Salesforce Opportunities in Outreach article.
- Prospects must be added to an Opportunity to view the activity and data tied to the Prospect record as it updates through an Opportunity. Outreach recommends adding Prospects to the Opportunity in the CRM and syncing content back to Outreach. For more information on adding Prospects to an Opportunity, refer to the Assign a Prospect to an Opportunity article.
