mapping Leads with Accounts

[rupesh_solanki]

Hi,

Is there is any way of mapping the leads with the related accounts in SugarCRM community edition.

I have separately imported leads & accounts into SugarCRM. The problem i am facing currently is that in order to link account with lead every time i have to search account via advanced search.

Please suggest me the best way to tackle this problem.

Many Thanks
Rupesh

Rather than import, you should seek to write a sql script that Inserts the Accounts and the relationship with Leads ... otherwise you could import Leads with Account names and Convert the Leads to Accounts
