Opportunity bulk import improvement
Currently in bulk import of opportunities we are unable to set the stage and add custom fields. I have to manually and individually change the stage if it isn't the first stage. And to add custom fields I have to do v-lookups and do it in different bulk uploads to identify the opportunity id to then bulk update the custom fields. The bulk import of profiles allows the import of custom fields and the default fields. I would like to when doing a bulk import of opportunities to also set the stage it should be at and the custom fields in one spreadsheet, one upload.

Being such a large community foundation, we must have more bulk-friendly functionality in opportunities. Otherwise, the tool becomes difficult for our team to use effectively.

Bulk options would make opportunities much more usable for us. I just spent 2 hours manually closing out opportunities from this year that just need to be marked closed. Everytime I try to start using opportunities more, I encounter these time-consuming challenges and question whether it is a useful tool.

We’d like to improve our ability to efficiently process opportunities. First, it would be extremely helpful if we had the ability to bulk-process items in one way or another. We’d like to be able to complete opportunities in bulk, as well as marking them as successful or not. Last, we’d like the ability to bulk assign opportunity tasks to staff members, most likely using a filtered list. Adding this functionality will help make opportunities a much more effective tool for us.
