Renew an Opportunity
When you close an opportunity as Lost, you may wish to try again to
win the same business at a later time. To do so, you can renew the opportunity.
You may also wish to renew opportunities that you close as Won,
to aid you in processing renewals for the same business the following
year.
- Click to highlight the opportunity
you wish to renew and do one of the following:
- Click Actions
> Renew on the options bar.
- Click Actions
> Renew on the menubar.
- Right click on the highlighted opportunity
and select Renew.
- The Renew Opportunity
pop-up window displays. The description of the selected opportunity
defaults in the Description
field, but you can change it in order to distinguish the renewal opportunity
from the original opportunity.

close date for the renewal opportunity

and Stage.
Stages are set up in Opportunity
Stages Configuration, and Groups are set up in Opportunity

are available for selection in the Stage dropdown menu.

button to display the Opportunity
Detail screen and enter any information available for the renewal
opportunity.
