The Deal Pipeline on Recruit CRM lets you keep a tab on all revenue opportunities and "deals" your team is working on.

You can create deal stages, customize deal fields, and track any Job, Company, or Contact associated with a deal.

Understanding the Deals Pipeline's Metrics


There are 4 metrics you need to take into consideration while keeping track of your Deals in Recruit CRM:​

Total Weighted Pipeline

Represents how much you have earned or will earn according to the deals' current stages in the Deal Pipeline.

Total Pipeline

Represents the sum of the total deals' values, regardless of their stage.

Deals Won

Measures the total amount earned on deals in the "won" stage.

Deals Lost

Measures the total amount lost on deals in the "lost" stage.

These metrics are automatically updated as you create new deals, delete/archive old ones, and move the deals through the different stages.

Creating Stages in the Deals Pipeline


The stages in the Deals Pipeline are responsible for the amount calculated in the Total Weighted Pipeline.

Recruit CRM has two default stages in the Deals Pipeline that cannot be removed:

  • Won

  • Lost

You can customize your Deals Pipeline in the Admin Settings.

Let's get started on making your very first Deal 😀


1. Creating Custom Fields

Like every other record type on Recruit CRM, you can customize the data you want to see on deals as well from the "Deals Field" section within admin settings.

2. Choosing Default Fields and Adding Custom Fields

You can set Default fields & make them visible and/or mandatory based on your workflow. For any additional information, you want your team to enter on deals, you can use up to 16 custom fields to collect extra information.

3. Make your Kanban View

Use the 'Deals Pipeline" option to view & customize the stages you'd like to move your deals through within your Workflow.

4. Customize your Stages

Finalize the stages you'd like to see on your Kanban Board for Deals along with the probability of winning deals at every stage

Your Deals Pipeline is now ready to use in both List & Kanban Views!

You can now track your revenue pipeline on both a total & weighted basis :)

5. Change the deal stages

This feature is currently in beta and will be gradually released to all users in 1-2 weeks.

You have the flexibility to view your deal pipeline in both List and Kanban views. In the Kanban view, you can change the deal stage by simply dragging and dropping the deal to the desired stage.

When you change the stage, a pop-up window will appear, allowing you to enter a remark or reason for the stage change.

You can also change the deal stage by directly accessing the deal profile.


Click on the stage, and the same pop-up window will appear, prompting you to choose a new desired deal stage from the drop-down menu and enter a reason for the change.

Afterwards, click on submit, and the deal stage will be updated accordingly.

You can view the complete history of changes made to the deal stages, including remarks left, dates of updates, and the user who performed the stage change.

Simply click on the remarks icon next to the deal stage to access this information.
