Outcome. A new deal gets classified as new business or expansion automatically, based on whether its associated company has a prior Closed Won deal, so pipeline reports split cleanly without a rep manually tagging every deal.

When to use it, when not to
- UseUse it at deal creation. This fiche classifies once and does not keep re-checking, since re-running the same logic after the fact could reclassify a deal mid-cycle if the company happens to win another deal concurrently.
- UseUse it when "new business vs expansion" is a standing reporting need for sales leadership, not a one-off report someone can pull manually.
- SkipDo not use it if a company can have a Closed Won deal that does not count as prior business for classification purposes, for instance a free pilot recorded as Closed Won. Exclude those from the active list definition below.
- SkipDo not use it on a company-less deal. Classification depends entirely on the associated company's deal history, pair with deal-hygiene-017 first.
