Hi Mike,  I've been following up with you regarding this case via email.  - Jason

Yes, I had to change those since the original design was referring to the stock screen. Likewise, my Activities List screen was also a stock screen. Thanks

If you wish to sort and filter Leads, another option would be to utilize our Tags feature.  These tags also appear in the Existing Lead Contact List grid and can actually be transferred over when the Lead becomes a Customer and appear in the Customer List screen as well. - Adam

I called it ContactsEntity because there was already the Entity field I mentioned above. Anyway, those were available to be chosen and I selected Entity first, but there was still only 1 contact showing for ...

The same user emailed in:  My sales manager said that when she enters an activity she has to manually enter the date in the notes section.  I thought there must be a way that it "stamps" the date the activity was completed so that we can list all the activities completed in one day and review notes.  She said she used be ...
