Pipeline stages
Deals move through stages that mirror a typical sales process:| Stage | What it means |
|---|---|
| Prospecting | Initial contact — you’ve identified a potential opportunity |
| Qualifying | Evaluating fit — budget, timeline, and scope are being discussed |
| Proposing | You’ve sent or are preparing a proposal |
| Negotiating | The client is reviewing terms, pricing, or scope adjustments |
| Closing | Final steps before signing |
| Won | Deal closed successfully |
| Lost | Opportunity didn’t convert |
| Active | Work in progress on a won deal |
| Renewal pending | Existing engagement approaching renewal |
| Completed | All work delivered and closed |
| Cancelled | Deal was cancelled before completion |
Creating a deal

Enter the deal name, expected value, probability, currency, and expected close date. Optionally associate a client.
Deal detail page
Click any deal card to open its detail page. The detail page has four sections:Timeline
A chronological log of all activity on the deal: stage changes, notes, proposal links, and milestones. You can add notes directly from this tab to keep context for your team.Documents
All proposals linked to this deal appear here. You can:- Create a new proposal, contract, or SOW — the deal and client are pre-filled.

- Click any document to open it in the editor.
Milestones
Payment milestones tied to the deal. Each milestone has a name, amount, due date, and status (pending, invoiced, paid, overdue, cancelled). Use milestones to track payment schedules independently of proposal milestones.Sidebar
The right sidebar shows deal metadata: current stage, expected value, probability, close date, and the associated client. You can edit any field inline.Pipeline analytics
At the top of the pipeline page, summary cards show:- Total deals in the pipeline.
- Won value — total value of deals in the Won stage.

Column visibility
If your pipeline has stages you don’t use, click the Visibility button in the toolbar to toggle individual columns on or off. Your preferences are saved per browser.Linking proposals to deals
When you create a proposal from within a deal, thedealId and client name are automatically passed to the editor. The proposal appears in the deal’s Documents tab and contributes to the deal’s value tracking.
You can also link an existing proposal to a deal by editing the proposal’s settings.
A deal can have multiple proposals (e.g., an initial proposal, an addendum, and a renewal). Each one appears as a separate document in the deal’s Documents tab.
