# Tracking Your Close Rate on Deals

The ability to track your **Close Rate** is an integral part of the sales process, as it helps you identify areas of opportunity for increasing sales.

For example, if you know your Close Rate is currently sitting at 30%, and your goal is to land three new clients this quarter, this tells you that you need ten more deals in the Pipeline to make that goal.

## Tracking Your Close Rates

It is important to change the **State** on the Opportunity when a deal closes, regardless of whether you won or lost the deal.

Locate the Opportunity and tap **Edit**.

Select the **state** field and choose from the drop down list.

Tap **Save** and then **Done** when finished.

## Setting Up Opportunity State Reasons in Daylite Preferences

When you choose a **State** for your Opportunity you can also explain the reason for your choice. These are called **Opportunity State Reasons**, and can only be set up in Daylite Preferences.

Navigate to **Daylite > Settings > Opportunities**.

Name your **Opportunity State Reason** and choose a **State**.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.daylite.app/help/learn-iphone/close-more-deals/tracking-your-close-rate-on-deals.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
