Make the Fields that copy through to New Opportunities configurable

[#1]

It is often the case that when creating an Opportunity from a Contact or Company record it is desirable to copy information in addition to the standard Contact Name and Company Name into the Opportunity record.(These are probably linked rather than copied, but that's a technicality).

For example Account Number, Reference Number, ID Status or other fields which may exist in Contact or Company records currently have to be manually copied if required into the Opportunities created from those records.

It would be neat if we could select which fields are linked yo the Opportunities in the same way we can configure which fields are linked and copied between Comany and Contact records.

Having the additional information in the Opportunity records provides much more flexibility for filtering, sorting and reporting on the Opportunity data.

I have many requests for this functionality.

What would really make things tick is if emails realting to the Opportunity were able to be attached to the Opportunity History rather than the Contact History. This would keep Opportunity related information in one place and free up the day to day management at Contact level.

Opportunity History, Notes and Documents would then be Archived when the Opportunity is Closed.
