Hi,

I am trying to convert a lead into opportunity but getting error as -

"Validation error on Lead: Please select appropriate LDR who qualified the lead."

Please let me know the process to convert a lead into opportunity.

I believe it is a validation rule you have in SFDC / other CRM. make sure that the "LDR" field is populated before converting the lead into an opportunity, or exclude the Marketo user in validation rules in SFDC, something like:
IsConverted && 
ISBLANK(LDR__c) && 
$Profile.Name <> "Marketo User"

I Itay,

I have checked all LDR fields are populated.
Can you please share the steps to convert a lead in opportunity. I don’t have a salesforce account.
Can we create opportunity from Marketo.

Sure, create a smart campaign. in the smart list add any criteria that you'd like (any custom fields that are populated).
in the Flow drag the "Convert Lead" flow action and specify the covnerted lead status. You can also add choices.
