Explanation:
Meine Deutung:
Close: Verkaufsgelegenheiten zum Abschluss bringen (d.h. der Verkauf hat bereits stattgefunden und alle zum Verkauf führenden Daten werden nun irgendwo eintragen)
Fulfill: Verkaufsgelegenheiten wahrnehmen und verfolgen (nutzen)

How to Close a Sales Opportunity
Now that you're using sales opportunities, it's important to track them along the way. At some point, you'll hopefully win the deal, and need to close the sales opportunity in ACT! to accurately reflect what happened with the sale. Here's how:
1. Lookup the contact in which the opportunity is associated
2. Click in the checkmark column next to the opportunity you are closing
3. Choose a result
4. Enter a reason
5. If necessary, add additional information
6. Click OK

agree  Andreas Kobell: *abschließen* im Sinne von "Vertrag abschließen" und *ausführen* im Sinne von "die Arbeit machen: Der Chef schließt den Vertrag ab, zieht einen neuen Kunden an Land, die Angestellten seiner Firma erledigen die Arbeit... so kenne ich das noch von früher..
