2. crm_pipelines_steps_list(pipeline_id) -> Find first step
3. crm_deals_create(name, pipeline_id, step_id, amount) -> Create deal
4. crm_deals_pipelines_change(deal_id, pipeline_id, next_step_id) -> Advance
5. crm_deals_comments_create(deal_id, text) -> Document progress

5. Use amounts and currency on deals for revenue forecasting
6. Review pipeline regularly — move stale deals or close them
