Sales Funnel

In CRM → Sales Funnel, track customers by stage on a kanban board.

Search customer by name

Use the search field at the top of the funnel to find a customer in any stage:

1. Type the name in Search customer by name...
2. Review results with stage (badge) and position (#N of T)
3. Click a result to open the customer edit modal
4. If the card is already loaded in the column, it is also highlighted on the board

💡

Search covers the entire current funnel (not only loaded cards) and respects Only mine and Hide closed.

Changelog: v2026.7.7

Hide closed

Use Hide closed at the top of the funnel to hide customers whose last conversation is Closed (or marked as resolved).

1. Open the desired funnel
2. Enable Hide closed
3. Columns show only pending, in-progress, or no-conversation customers
4. Turn it off to see everyone again

💡

This option does not delete data — it only filters the view. It works with Only mine.
