Running & Processing Opportunities
Once you create an Opportunity, it will begin processing straight away. It will run from the date created and take into account data from the last 30 days.
Once processing is complete, it will turn blue. You can choose to re-run this opportunity at a later date for more up-to-date data.
To re-run an Opportunity, click on the Re-run opportunity icon.
