How to add tags to lead states

Feedback

Tags are a way to add labels to your lead states. A lead state can have multiple tags. State tags are used in reporting. You can choose tags from the default list but you can't create new tags.

Dependencies

The state must exist. See How to configure lead states.
Unless you specify the tags for a state, you can't define the state transitions.

How to

3-tasks process

Concepts

What are states?: Fields are attached to states (such as New, Assigned, or Closed). A state is a specific stage in the lifecycle of a lead record. A lead begins its life by being in a New state and ends with either a Won or a Lost state. In this process, the lead can pass through several other states also. For example, when a new lead is assigned to someone, it can move to an Assigned state, or when someone on your team fixes an appointment with a lead, the record might move to a Meeting scheduled state.

The following image shows state fields for a leads record.
