InvestNext Pipeline Stages:
InvestNext dynamically moves the prospective investor (Opportunity) along the pipeline for certain stages of the pipeline, but for other stages, you will need to move the Opportunity manually.
The following stages of the pipeline are always managed automatically by the system. These stages cannot be deleted or renamed:
Stage: Committed: A commitment has been entered.
Stage: Paperwork Completed: All e-signature requests (documents) have been completed, including the counter-signature.
Stage: Funded: Funds have been recorded as received.*
*The Opportunity will remain in the Committed status until all documents have been completed regardless of funding status.
IMPORTANT: Pipelines in the Fundraising section can be viewed as a Grid or as a Pipeline by clicking on the button for the respective view.
