2927967 - Option “Set as Stopped" Greyed out when an Opportunity is in Status Open.

Symptom

Option “Set as Stopped"  is Greyed out when an Opportunity is in Status Open.

Environment

SAP Sales Cloud for Customer

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to the Sales Work Center.
  2. Go to the Opportunities Work Center View.
  3. Open any Opportunity with Open status.
  4. Click on Action button.
  5. Find Option "Set as Stopped" greyed out.

 The same applies for Custom Status with Life Cycle Status Open.

Cause

This the system standard behavior.

From status Open it is possible to set the opportunity to In Process and to Won or Lost. And from In Process it is allowed to set any other status. As this is defined in the status schema, it can also not be configured.

The same applies for Custom Status with Life Cycle Status Open and Life Cycle Status In Process.

Resolution

You could define a workflow rule that sets the opportunities directly from Open to In Process. As from In Process status the user can set every other status.
