Use this interactive demo to learn how to set up a custom sales process in Salesforce CRM.

Quick summary

This demo walks you through creating a Sales Process in Salesforce using Advanced Setup, from accessing the gear icon to selecting and saving your Opportunity stages. In under seven steps, you can define a repeatable pipeline structure that standardizes how your team moves deals forward.


Steps

  1. Click the gear icon at the top right of the Salesforce dashboard.
  2. Select Open Advanced Setup from the dropdown menu.
  3. In the Quick Find search box, search for and select Sales Processes.
  4. Select an existing process (usually Master), then enter the remaining process details.
  5. Click Save to confirm the process details.
  6. Move Opportunity stages from Available to Selected by clicking the > button.
  7. Click Save again to finalize your new Sales Process.

📌 Why this matters

Setting up a dedicated Sales Process in Salesforce lets revenue teams standardize their pipeline stages, ensuring every opportunity follows a consistent path from first contact to closed deal. By mapping only the relevant Opportunity stages to a specific process, sales managers gain cleaner reporting and better forecasting accuracy. This configuration is essential for organizations running multiple sales motions—such as new business versus renewals—within the same Salesforce org. A well-defined Salesforce Sales Process directly improves rep productivity, deal velocity, and CRM data quality.
