Overview

Deals is the selected client sales pipeline. Review open opportunities, find missing owners or close dates, and move cards through stages. The summary covers all client deals; search, owner and view filters narrow the board. You can also import deals from a CSV or export the whole pipeline to one. Companies in the header opens the company records for this client.

How to use this page

  1. Select the client

    Choose the client in the sidebar. A pipeline with only won or lost deals starts on All deals; other pipelines start on Open opportunities. The summary shows open and won values and counts, lost count, and open deals needing attention for a missing owner, close date or next step, or an overdue date. Each deal needing attention counts once. If loading fails, select Retry.

  2. Add a deal

    Click New deal to open the add form. Enter a deal name (required), optional company and amount, and choose a starting stage (defaults to the first stage). Press Enter in the name field or click Create to add it. If the create fails, an error toast tells you instead of the card silently not appearing.

  3. Import deals from a CSV

    Click Import CSV, then Choose CSV file. A HubSpot deals export or any spreadsheet saved as CSV works, up to 2,000 deals. Check the column choices and the rows that need attention, then click Import to add the new deals. Nothing is added until you confirm, and existing deals are never changed. Stages that are not in this pipeline are listed; add them under Edit stages first if you want to keep them.

  4. Export the pipeline

    Click Export CSV to download every deal for this client as a spreadsheet file. The file includes all deals, whatever search, owner or view filter is set. Each row has the stage, Open, Won or Lost status, amount, close date, owner, company, contacts, the next open follow-up, notes and lead source details. The button is greyed out until the client has at least one deal.

  5. Move a deal along

    Drag a card to another stage or use its stage dropdown, including No stage. Each move saves immediately. Dragging and the dropdown pause while that deal saves. Failed moves restore the previous stage with an error. A moved card may leave the current filtered view.

  6. Start from an empty board

    When a client has no deals yet, the board shows a No deals yet panel with Import CSV and Create first deal buttons. Once deals exist they fill the stage columns.

  7. Filter opportunities

    Combine search by deal, company or owner name with an owner and view. Choose Open opportunities, Missing or overdue next step, All deals, Overdue close dates, Open without owner, Open without close date, Won deals or Lost deals. Showing X of Y describes filtered cards. Show all deals clears filters when nothing matches.

  8. Review owners and close dates

    Cards show the saved close date and attention labels for open deals: No owner, No close date or Close date overdue. Open a card to edit its details. Expected close date requires Save close date. Dates before today on your device are overdue; today is not overdue.

  9. Review opportunity follow-ups

    Select Follow-ups in the header; the list opens above the summary. Use All owners or Assigned to me, then All open follow-ups, Due today or Overdue. These filters are separate from the pipeline card filters. Select a linked deal to add or edit its follow-ups. Complete marks a finished action complete; it then leaves the open list. Refresh reloads the list.

  10. Read the full pipeline

    All deals shows open, won and lost cards together. Won and Lost columns stay narrower so the standard six-stage pipeline fits a desktop window. Open-only views keep them as compact drop targets for closing deals. On smaller screens, or with extra stages or a No stage column, scroll the board sideways. You can also focus the board with Tab and use the arrow keys to scroll.

What the buttons do

Companies
Opens the Companies page, where each company you sell to has one record with its deals, totals and matched contacts.
New deal
Toggles the add-deal form: deal name (required), optional company and amount, and a starting stage that defaults to the first stage. Enter in the name field or Create adds it.
Export CSV
Downloads every deal in this client pipeline as a CSV file named after the client and today's date. Filters do not limit it. Disabled when there are no deals.
Import CSV
Opens the import panel to add deals from a HubSpot export or spreadsheet. You review a preview before anything is created.
Edit stages
Header button that opens the Stages page to rename, reorder, or add pipeline stages.
Follow-ups / Hide follow-ups
Opens or closes the selected client list of open opportunity follow-ups.
Deal card (drag)
Click to open the deal. Drag it between stage columns to change its stage. A rejected move rolls the card back with an error toast.
Stage dropdown below each card
Saves a stage change without dragging. Disabled while that deal is moving.
Create first deal
Appears in the empty-board state; opens the add-deal form.
Search opportunities / owner / opportunity view
Combine filters without changing records or summary totals.
Show all deals
Clears search and owner filters and selects All deals when nothing matches.
Complete
Marks that follow-up complete and records the change in its deal activity history.

Common questions

Visible deals without a stage appear here and count as open. Use the card stage dropdown or drag the card to assign a stage.
The stage change was rejected when saving, so the card returns to its original column and an error toast explains it. Try the move again; if it keeps failing, refresh the board.
Click Edit stages in the header (or open the Stages page) to add, rename, reorder, or mark won and lost stages.
Meetings track the appointments SalesHive sets. Deals is the client's own pipeline for the opportunities that come out of those meetings.
The summary includes all deals for the selected client. Stage counts and values include only cards matching your search, owner and view filters.
No. It always includes every deal for the selected client, including won and lost ones. Follow-up columns show open follow-ups only. Very large pipelines of more than 10,000 deals cannot be exported at once; the page shows an error asking you to contact support.
No. They track work with an owner and due date. They do not send reminders or emails, place calls, or automatically finish when a deal changes stage. They are separate from prospect follow-ups and CRM Tasks.
The board shows open follow-ups only. Check the owner and due-date filters, or open the individual deal and choose Completed. Lists show at most 500 records and display a notice at that limit. Due today and Overdue use the calendar day on your device.
Closed deals use less space so more of the pipeline fits on screen. Choose All deals, Won deals or Lost deals to see matching closed cards. In open-only views, the compact columns remain available as drop targets. Column width does not change stages, totals or saved deal details.
