Pipelines

Pipelines in Partner Center track how sales opportunities progress through stages and forecast revenue. Use the default four-stage pipeline or create custom pipelines at Administration → Pipelines with your own stages and forecast percentages.

Default pipeline​

The default pipeline has four stages: Lead, Contact, Qualified, and Proposal, with forecast percentages of 0%, 20%, 40%, and 60% respectively. Revenue forecasts are based on the probability you set for each stage. If the default doesn't fit your business, you can create custom pipelines and define your own stages and percentages.
