Essentials: Statuses & KPIs

There are 36 Lead statuses in Outbound, each describing a different set of conditions that the Lead meets.

Who can call these Leads?

Which Leads can be called depends on Lead ownership, and where the Agent is placed in the organisational structure.

  • Calling Leads depends on the correct Campaign Access or Campaign Access Roles
  • Agents CAN call Leads with Lead Ownership on their own user or teams above them in the hierarchy
  • Agents CAN'T call Leads with Lead Ownership on teams or users below them in the hierarchy 
  • Agents CAN'T view reports on Leads that belong to Teams they don't have access to, unless they have the Extended Insights Rights Feature Permission
  • Agents without extended data rights (i.e. not an Admin or Team Leader) will NOT have access to any deactivated Leads, including ones they own
  • Changing or editing a Lead to a Private or VIP Redials in either the Contact Page or Edit Lead will make you the Lead Owner

For more in-depth information on Lead Ownership and Dialing, read our guide.


Leads can usually be given statuses more than once

Let's look at one scenario:

  1. A Lead can be given the status Pending Validation when they have accepted an offer from the sales agent and is ready for the Quality Assurance check.
  2. If the QA process fails, the Lead is re-assigned to the Agent with the status Private Redial.
  3. The Agent calls the Lead and fixes the issue, and again assigns the status Pending Validation.

In this case, when selecting KPIs for reports, it is important to understand whether the KPI is counting Leads that have entered this status for the first time or not.

All KPIs with [1] in the name refer to counting Leads that have entered the status for the first time.
