The Referral module gives your Partners the ability to send you prospective Leads/Referrals. You can then choose to work the Referrals yourself or send them to other Partners as Leads. The Partner can then convert the Leads to Deals or close them if there's no business. It also allows you to track commissions and gives the referring Partners full visibility into the progress/status of their Referrals throughout the sales cycle. 


Submitting a Referral: 


Partners submit Referrals by completing your Referral form, and the Internal recipients listed in your Referral Email Notifications are notified.

Accepting/Rejecting Referrals:


The Internal User can accept or reject the Referral by updating the Referral's Status. The Status field is also used to track commission payments. Any updates made to the Referral will trigger a notification to the referring Partner.
