Deal
Deal is an opportunity / project / proposal / bid / order that you are trying to win.

Deal Stages
A Deal usually goes through different stages like Discussion, Proposal, Negotiation etc. And these stages are different for different companies based on their sales process.
Deal Pipeline
Deal Pipeline shows you open deals (deal that are not won / lost yet) by stages. You can see the deals in each stage and the potential amount in each stage. This gives you complete visibility in your sales pipeline. Closed deals (Won / Lost) are not shown on pipeline.
As your Deal progresses, just drag it to the new stage. New Deal stage will be automatically updated and pipeline will also be updated.
Once a deal is closed, just mark it as won / lost. Deal stage & close date will be updated and Deal will disappear from pipeline.
Customize Deal Stages
You can customize deal stages from SettingsCustomize FieldsDeal. Select Deal stage. You can add or remove the stages from here. You can’t edit a stage name.
