  • Select an Opportunity
    Use the Find opportunity field immediately above the opportunity title in the Opportunities area to select the opportunity that you want to review or edit.
  • Use a Custom Opportunity Search
    If the default opportunity searches (Active, All, and Mine) for locating and selecting opportunities are not satisfactory, you can create custom searches. When you create a custom search, you have the option to save it so you can use it in the future without having to specify the search parameters again.
