Why can’t I see the Opportunity Details tab on the lead details page?
If you can’t see the Opportunity Details tab on the lead details page, it may be that your admin has either removed or not added the Opportunity Details tab through the Lead Details View Customization (LDVC) feature. Request your admin to navigate to the Lead Details View feature and add ‘Opportunity Details’ under the ‘Tabs’ section.

Hi Shailendra,
If you’re talking about the opportunity statuses (Open, Won, Lost), these cannot be configured. However, you can configure the opportunity stages within each opportunity status in the Opportunity settings on the Leadsquared Web App. To know more, see Opportunity Configurations. If this does not address your issue, please reach out to support@leadsquared.com with a detailed mail of the problem you’re facing. We’ll get back to you ASAP.
