A common navigation approach we recommend is to open Journey Events from Journey Stages in order to see what events progressed an account down the funnel, users should click into Journey Stages and select a comparison date.
To see a list of accounts that progressed through the funnel users should click the ‘Progressed’ icon. Once clicked, a list of all the progressed accounts will appear on the right.
