This is a little messy, so I'm going to describe the problem more than propose a solution. We just got back from a conference and have a slew of new leads to enter. It is likely that some of them have attended this conference before.
So to enter a new lead:
- Go to Admissions > Leads
- Search for the name of the lead to verify they're not already in the system
- Click Add a Lead in the Lead view
- Enter basic data
- Now I'm returned to a view that by default definitely excludes the new person I just entered because the immutable default filter specifies an admissions term and the lead I just entered cannot have an admissions term specified at this fault
- Clear the filter and Apply
- Open the lead I just entered
- Fill in the other data I have for them
- Repeat.
This is not efficient.
