Shouldn't loss reasons be specific to pipelines ?

Hello,

I use pipelines for:

_ Pre-qualification

_ Deals

_ Projects (instead of the Project modules that is not helpful in my case)

_ Internal Projects (instead of the Project modules that is not helpful in my case)

Obviously, the loss reasons should be specific to pipelines (for the last two, it is actually a closed status).

    @FH1504 if you wanted to, you could create custom fields for each pipeline and only have it visible in the respective pipeline. Then, set your own lost reasons and make the field required, either at the stage level or the close lost level.

    When creating the field, select the "Single Option" field so that in the future, you can run reports on it.

    Let me know if that helps.

    Yes, that is a bypass. I might go for it.

    It is not a clean solution though. The loss reasons should be specific to pipelines.
