How to Copy a Lead

The following instructions help with how to copy a lead record. You may copy a lead record for several reasons. One example would be, if a family inquired but decided not to complete the admissions process and then touched base with the school later to inquire about a future school year you could help by copying the lead. This allows you to keep the original lead record for reporting purposes and create a copy of the lead to copy over information including tasks, inquiry information, application, contract, or emails. Follow these steps to copy a lead. NOTE: you can use these same steps on either the Leads or Re-enrollment Leads tables.

1. Go to Admissions/Leads > Leads OR Re-enrollment Leads 
    
   
   
2. Select the lead in question and click Copy.
   (Right-click and "Open in new tab" to enlarge)
