From the Stage Management page, click New.
Enter a name for the stage definition.

If needed, select a record type for the Quote object.

Configure stage transitions to define stage movement for the Quote object. For example,
define the stage transition to move the quote from the Submitted stage to the Approved stage
and from the Submitted stage to the Rejected stage.

console.
