  • Hello John,
    You can accomplish this without any coding using workflow. SierraCRM's Process Manager Enterprise will allow you to create a process on Lead Convert. The process task will be to update a related module - in this case, you will choose the Opportunity - then you can update any field in the Opportunity two ways: 1 - by Value, set a field in the Opportunity to a fixed value - for example, set the Lead Source to some value. 2 - copy a value from the Lead and set a field on the Opportunity to this value.
