Advanced sales configuration and lead management settings for your real estate CRM
Sales Settings is a comprehensive configuration section designed specifically for administrative departments and real estate company managers. This section contains critical settings that control lead management, duplication handling, and sales process automation. These configurations directly impact how your sales team interacts with leads and manages customer data throughout the sales pipeline.
Proper configuration of these settings ensures efficient lead processing, prevents data conflicts, and maintains data integrity across your sales operations.
This section contains essential settings for managing lead creation and handling duplicate entries. These are system-wide settings that affect how new leads are processed and how the system handles existing customer data.
On/Off Setting: Controls whether a "Select" option appears at the top of the country code dropdown menu before all country options.
⚠️ Important Note: This setting may conflict with other configurations. For example, if country code is set as mandatory, users must select a specific country code, making the "Select" option problematic as it doesn't represent a valid choice.
On/Off Setting: When enabled, prevents users from copying lead numbers, enhancing security and preventing unauthorized lead number duplication.
Critical Setting: This is an important feature for lead management. When a customer doesn't have an email address, the system automatically generates a random email address for them.
Why This Matters: The generated email allows customers to access their dedicated portal where they can view available units, payment plans, installment schedules, and all personal information. This is essential because the system cannot create new leads without email addresses, as emails are linked to all customer-related data and services.
📧 Email Notification: When the option to send email credentials to customers is enabled, the system will automatically send an email containing the login credentials (email address and password) to the customer. This applies to both manually entered email addresses and system-generated fake emails, ensuring customers can access their portal regardless of how their email was created.
Configure the domain name that will be used for system-generated email addresses.
Example: @dotshub.com
Result: Generated emails will appear as randomname@dotshub.com
Define custom tags that appear in the Request section to categorize request status or priority level.
Default Tags Include:
Note: You can add unlimited custom tags to meet your business requirements.

On/Off Setting: When enabled, updates duplicate leads with new status/state information. When disabled, maintains the last recorded state in the system.
On/Off Setting: When a duplicate lead comes from a different source, this setting controls whether to update the lead with the new source or maintain the original source information.
On/Off Setting: Controls whether to update the lead creator name to the last person who added the duplicate entry, or maintain the original creator's name.
On/Off Setting: When enabled, unit viewing emails are sent from the assigned agent's email address rather than the system default email.
On/Off Setting: Controls the default sorting order for lead history. When enabled, shows most recent entries first (newest to oldest).

On/Off Setting: Enables automatic lead withdrawal from sales agents when they fail to interact with assigned leads within specified timeframes.
Example Scenario: A lead is assigned to a sales employee who doesn't contact the customer within 1 hour. The system automatically withdraws the lead from that employee and marks it as new for redistribution.
