Hi,
I'm currently building a BPF, i want to know what are the differences between the stage categories in the global option set. The categories are, Qualify, Develop, Propose, Close, Identify, Research, Resolve, and Approval.
Can anyone assist me with this, please?
Thank You
Yes, you can change the names
It's a global option set, check the Choices -> Stage Category
Can we change the Stage category Names?
If so, How can it be achieved

[/quote]Thank you. Now i definitely have a much better understanding with BPF. the next question i had with BPF, if you able to answer it as well, that would be great. Do these categories have an affect on the actual process, or is it just a name for the stage?
The first 4 apply to the Sales process. Lead to Opportunity. They are also the default stages in the Sales Funnel chart.
Stage 1 - Qualify - Is there a potential sale? - applies to Leads
Stage 2 - Develop - Conduct the necessary requirement gathering with customer to provide a proposal or quote.
Stage 3 - Propose - Present the proposal or quote to the customer.
Stage 4 - Close - Either receive an order or lose the sale
The next 3 apply to Service Cases
Stage 1 - Identify - Find customer account and related records. Get information on the issue or request.
Stage 2 - Research - Investigate the issue, search for prior solutions to similar cases.
Stage 3 - Resolve - Provide the solution, fulfill the request or whatever actions are necessary to resolve the Case for the customer.
Approval can be used wherever you want in a process. So if you have a process that needs the manager to review and approve a proposal before presenting to a customer use the Approval category.
Hope this helps!
Qualify, Develop, Propose and Close are different stage category for the Opportunity BPF.
Identify, Research and Resolve are for Case BPF
You can use them for custom entity too. It will be mainly used for Reporting - for example - Opportunity funnel chart.
