Processes
Turn the must-do tasks of each deal stage into a checklist. Tick them off as the deal moves forward so nothing gets skipped.

A process is a template of the standard stages a deal or contact moves through, plus the must-do tasks at each stage. When different people skip different steps, it gets everyone moving in the same order against the same checklist.
Build a process
Create a new process under ‘More → Processes’. Pick whether it applies to ‘deals’ or ‘contacts’, add stages in order, then list the tasks for each stage — one per line.
- On the entity tab, choose Deals or Contacts .
- Name the process, e.g. ‘Standard sales’.
- Add stages, e.g. ‘Consult → Propose → Negotiate → Close’.
- Enter each stage’s tasks, one per line, e.g. the ‘Quote’ stage: review intake / send quote / schedule follow-up.
- Save and it appears in the list, ready to apply to deals or contacts.
Start from a template
If building from scratch is hard, load a ready-made template in one click. Standard sales, customer onboarding, recruiting and fundraising come pre-filled with stages and tasks — tweak them freely afterward.
Apply to a deal or contact
On a deal’s or contact’s detail screen, pick ‘Apply process…’ to link it. Once applied it lands on the first stage, and that stage’s tasks come along as a checklist.
- Tap the stage chips at the top to switch the current stage.
- Tap a task to mark it done; tap again to undo.
- Use ‘Detach’ to unlink the process when you no longer need it.
See it all on a board or list
Hit ‘Open board’ from the process list to open a kanban board. Stages become columns and applied deals or contacts show as cards. Drag a card to another stage, or change the stage with a dropdown in the list view.
- Add entry — Search deals or contacts not yet in this process and drop them into a stage.
- Progress — Each card shows ‘done / total’ tasks for its stage, so you can see at a glance how far it’s come.
- In use — An ‘N in use’ badge on each list item shows how many deals or contacts are using it.
Manage — duplicate & delete
Need a similar process? Use ‘Duplicate’ to copy its stages and tasks, then just rename it. Delete a process you no longer use — deleting it automatically unlinks the deals and contacts that were using it.
