Opportunities
An Opportunity is a specific deal — an amount, a close date, and a stage. Attached to a Customer (or sometimes a Lead). Tracks the money side of the relationship.
Contacts
A Contact is a person attached to either a Customer or a Lead in AB Sales Management Service. One parent can carry multiple contacts — the buyer, the technical reviewer, the decision-maker.
Customers
A Customer is an established account in AB Sales Management Service — typically promoted from a qualified Lead. Customers can carry multiple Contacts and Opportunities.
