From the Add/Edit Sources page, you can add or edit sources not predefined in the Web Control system, or add and edit lead costs for any source.
Web Control allows you to define up to 100 dealer-defined sources. Dealer-defined sources are ones that are not predefined (listed) or will not be listed in Web Control. To learn more about adding and editing sources and lead costs, click the following links.
You may want to add a dealer-defined source when you are doing a promotional campaign with a local media outlet, such as a newspaper or radio station. When you add a dealer-defined source, it appears in italicized font in the list of all sources.

You may want to edit the name of an existing dealer-defined source to make it more descriptive or to update it for a more current campaign.
