Why a Prospect Is Missing From My Pipeline or Customers List
For agents: Pipeline and Customers answer different questions.
Pipeline vs Customers
- Pipeline: full sales funnel (lead → quoting → finalized → account creation → onboarding → customer).
- Customers: employers that completed onboarding and are live.
A brand-new signed-up employer still finishing setup should appear in Pipeline (often Onboarding), not necessarily Customers yet.
Triage checklist
- Quote never sent / never finalized — prospect may not be tracked as expected.
- Employer never signed up after finalized quote — still pre-account stages.
- Stuck in Onboarding — admin verified but wizard incomplete (billing, contract, business details, etc.).
- Attribution gap — account exists under a different producer path; escalate to StretchDollar support with company name + prospect email if you should own it but don’t see it.
