Create an Opportunity Saved Search Similar to the Total Open Opportunities Report with System Notes Columns Displayed

This article discusses creating a Saved Search that contains details provided in the Pipeline Analysis of Open Opportunities and adding the information from system notes to show changes made and its date.

The Pipeline Analysis of Open Opportunities gives information about opportunity deals that are approaching their Expected Close Dates and which Opportunities Sales Reps should close to winning. However, Standard Reports do not have the ability to show System Notes thus changes made in the record cannot be exposed.

5. Select Opportunity.
