Preserve Notes When Converting Contacts to Leads

Discover how to preserve notes and tasks when converting contacts back to leads in Zendesk Sell.

What happens to notes and tasks when converting contacts back to leads?

When converting contacts back to leads, notes and tasks may not be preserved if you choose to export and reimport your contacts.

If you export your contacts and reimport them as leads, any notes or tasks associated with those contacts will not be retained. To keep these notes and tasks, consider using the tagging method. By tagging contacts as 'lead', you can maintain all associated notes and tasks while still identifying them as leads.
