Lead Sources are used to track where your business is coming from. Advertising campaigns and general referral sources are listed under Lead Sources.
You can add, delete, rename and filter your Lead Sources. You can choose in which branch a lead source is available and you can also assign an opportunity to a Lead Source for reporting purposes.
