Create a lead record type to track deals submitted by partners in Experience Cloud
sites. Record types help you differentiate between sales leads and registered deals, assign page
layouts for each profile for deal registration, and simplify reporting by lead record
type.

Note Creating a lead record type requires you to associate it with a lead process and allow you to specify page layouts to be used with different profiles.
Similarly, creating an opportunity record type requires you to provide a sales process and
opportunity page layouts.
From Setup, enter Record Types in the Quick Find box, then select
Record Types under Leads. To create an opportunity record, select
Record Types under Opportunities.
Create a lead record type to track registered deals called Registered
Deal. If you’re creating an opportunity record type, create one for registered
deals as well.
Activate the record type and assign it to the appropriate partner and channel manager
profiles for your site.
Assign page layouts for the partner and channel manager profiles.
If you haven’t already, edit the picklist values for the Lead Source field to include a
value for registered deals.
If this is the first time you’re setting up a deal registration process for your
company, consider converting existing leads to the generic sales lead record type. Using
separate record types for standard leads versus registered deals simplifies the reporting
process.
