Lead to Task
This module allows you to convert leads or opportunities into project tasks. It supports the following features:
- Optional automatic archiving of the lead after conversion.
- Ability to configure a Force Project so tasks are created directly without a popup.
- Preserves attachments and messages from the lead.

Table of contents
Configuration
- Ensure that your user has at least the following access rights:
- Project: Project User
- CRM: Salesperson
These permissions are required to create tasks from leads.
Usage
Open the CRM settings and configure:
- Force Project: If set, all tasks created from leads will be assigned to this project without asking the user.
- Archive Lead: If enabled, the lead will be archived after converting it to a task.
Navigate to CRM > Sales > My pipeline
Open an existing lead or create a new one.
Depending on the Archive Lead setting:
- Enabled → The button will be labeled “Convert to Task”.
- Disabled → The button will be labeled “Create Task”.
When clicking the button (either Create Task or Convert to Task), two scenarios are possible:
- Force Project set → The task is created immediately and linked to the configured project.
- No Force Project set → A popup appears allowing you to select a project. Click Create Task in the popup to proceed.
After creation, you will be redirected to the new task form view. All relevant lead information, including attachments and messages, will be copied to the task.
