Status

After the Outbound Salesperson acts, they will then update the Status of the account. There are 5 statuses:

• New (the default when a new account is added),

• Won - if the account is Won, change the status to Won. As you work down the page, there is a box to check if the account has a UPC file, or if the account has MAP pricing. The order placed and comments field would be updated by the Buyer/Manager at the end of the sales process.

• Lost - if the account Is Lost, you were not approved. When you select the Lost status, it will open up another box to select the Lost Reason. Pick the reason the account was lost, hit save and then you can click the Vendors tab on the left to go back and work on other accounts.

• Awaiting Forms/PL (price list) – this means the ball is in the court of the vendor, you are waiting on them

• Follow-Up – the Outbound Salesperson needs to take action

Unless the account is Won or Lost, there is nothing else to do on the Vendor Detail page outside of Note, Status Change or updating contact information.
