====== Creating a lead ======

===== How can I create a new business contact (Lead) quickly? =====
LOGO CRM offers an extensive customer file but also the option of entering new contact details quickly, where it's not clear if this lead is ever going to become a customer. You can gather business card details, fair and other contacts. That way, contact information doesn't get lost, but also won't factor into statistics and customer lists. 
The screen to create a Lead is the same as for a customer, only the required fields are different. Here, only company name and last name of the contact are required. That way you can enter and save incomplete contact details.

==== Via quick create ====

The screen to create a lead can be opened via the menu in quick create.

==== Via lead-customer list ====

You will find a list with leads in the module “My Apps” or in the toolbar, if you have activated the element. Similarly to the customer-list, you can create a new lead via the action links.

If a lead turns into a customer later, you can simply convert him in LOGO CRM.
