Lead Conversion in SAP Cloud for Customer(C4C)

Converting Leads:

Lead conversion happens when a lead has been qualified and you believe your prospect has an interest in doing business with you.

Note: As a prerequisite, your leads must be Consistent before being converted. To resolve any lead inconsistency, you can Check Consistency for each lead to view relevant warning messages and fix the errors accordingly.

Lead can activate or de-activate a specific action in fine-tuning, if allowed as shown below: refer section 8 in this document.

Convert Lead to Opportunity:

You can convert a lead to an opportunity when you have verified that the prospect has a good chance of becoming a customer.
One lead can be converted to multiple opportunities, depending on how your administrators have configured the conversion limit.

You can follow the below steps to convert your lead to Opportunity:

Convert Lead to Account and Contact:

One lead can be converted to only one account and contact, and cannot be further converted to an opportunity.
Once converted, the lead remains in the system as a record and cannot be deleted.
The lead status will change to Converted, which indicates the lead has reached its end of lifecycle and no more modifications will be allowed to the lead record.
