Two questions: starting Sugar, and tracking the quantity of prospects (and not $)

[amaury]

hello.
a few days ago i installed Sugar CE for MacOS X.
i have two doubts:
1- everytime i want to run Sugar, i have to copy this line to the Terminal on MacOS X: /Applications/sugarcrm-5.2.0f/sugarctl.sh start. is there a way of having Sugar starting automatically? like double-clicking on a file to run it?
2- in the company i work for, due to the nature of the services we sell (legal and consultancy services), we do not track opportunities by value ($), but by number of open opportunities - that means, the quantity of prospect processes that are being worked on at one given moment. thus, what we want to see is something like:
- number of open opportunities (total)
- number of opportunities per sales stage:
- leads (contact not made yet)
- prospects (cold call or e-mail sent)
- commercial proposals sent
- commercial proposals being negotiated (price negotiation, adjustments on the service scope, etc.)
- closed sales
- cancelled opportunities
is that a way to plot this information on the panel, instead of the standard forecast by $?
thanks in advance.

Hi! About the service beeing droped out, i dont think this is a standart thing.
About the analitics view you need. have you checked Flexible charts? with this tool you can do any select to create any kinda chart you need.

hi.
thanks, but i guess i am not doing it right, since after installing the Flexible Charts thing, i didn't see any difference.
i am seeking for help at the thread you pointed to.

I too am having the same problem on my mac regarding the autostart of services. Can anyone help direct me to how I can automatically start the services of Sugar instead of typing this into terminal:

/Applications/sugarcrm-5.2.0i/sugarctl.sh start
