Some calls or emails that don't relate to your business may end up in CRM and spoil your statistics. To avoid this, add email addresses or phone numbers to the exceptions list, ensuring your CRM only saves relevant information.

Add exceptions in CRM settings
To add emails or phone numbers to the exceptions list:
- Go to CRM.
- Click More.
- Expand Settings.
- Select CRM settings.
- Open the Other tab.
- Choose the Exceptions block.
- Click Add to list in the top right corner.
- Enter email addresses and phone numbers, one per line. You can also leave a comment by placing a semicolon after an entry.
- Click Import to save.
-
Exceptions only stop new emails from being saved in CRM. Replies to existing emails will still be saved.
-
Messages and calls are not blocked. They will appear in your inbox and phone statistics but won't be saved in CRM.
Add exceptions from the CRM item form
You can add contacts to exceptions directly from the lead or deal form:
- Click the gear button (⚙️) at the top panel.
- Select Add to exceptions.
When you do this, Bitrix24 will delete the lead, deal, or contact, and their details will be added to the exceptions list. This is handy when using the repeat lead tool to prevent unwanted repeat leads.
