Storing data from 1 table to another tables in laravel - laravel

Question

I am pretty new to Laravel. I have a Table named Leads and Three other tables named Contacts, Companies, and Opportunities.
What I am trying to do is extract the data from the Leads table to these 3 other tables. Something like this : https://imgur.com/EZGqNQH . The way I want to achieve this is kind of like this: When the user clicked the 'Convert Lead' button, a modal will appear like this: https://imgur.com/EDgVR7U and if the user ticked the checkbox button for the Convert to Opportunity, an extra field will appear for the user to fill in: https://imgur.com/mrypfCC
I have made the necessary files for the process (maybe)
LeadController:
{
return view('leads.create')
->withUsers($this->users->getAllUsersWithDepartments())
->withClients($this->clients->listAllClients())
->withIndustries($this->clients->listAllIndustries())
->withLeadSource($this->leads->listAllSources());
}
public function convertLeads($id)
{
$lead = Lead::findOrFail($id);
$company = new Companies;
$opportunity = new Opportunity;
$contact = new Contact;
$company->lead_id = $lead->id;
$company->name = $lead->company_name;
$company->phone = $lead->company_phone;
$company->email = $lead->company_mail;
$company->address1 = $lead->company_address1;
$company->address2 = $lead->company_address2;
$company->state = $lead->company_state;
$company->zipcode = $lead->company_zipcode;
$company->city = $lead->company_city;
$company->country = $lead->company_country;
$company->save();
$contact->name = $lead->lead_name;
$contact->job_title = $lead->position;
$contact->email = $lead->mail;
$contact->primary_number = $lead->lead_phone;
$contact->description = $lead->description;
$contact->client_id = $lead->client_id;
$contact->save();
Session()->flash('flash_message', 'Lead successfully converted!');
return view('leads.show');
}
/**
* Store a newly created resource in storage.
*
* #param StoreLeadRequest|Request $request
*
* #return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function store(StoreLeadRequest $request)
{
$getInsertedId = $this->leads->create($request);
Session()->flash('flash_message', 'Lead is created');
return redirect()->route('leads.show', $getInsertedId);
}
public function show($id)
{
return view('leads.show')
->withLead($this->leads->find($id))
->withUsers($this->users->getAllUsersWithDepartments())
->withCompanyname($this->settings->getCompanyName());
}
Route:
Route::get('/data', 'LeadsController#anyData')->name('leads.data');
Route::get('/create', 'LeadsController#create')->name('leads.create');
Route::get('/show/{id}', 'LeadsController#show')->name('leads.show');
Route::get('convertLeads/{id}', 'LeadsController#convertLeads')->name('leads.convertLeads');
Route::get('/my', 'LeadsController#my')->name('leads.my');
Route::get('/mydata', 'LeadsController#myData')->name('leads.mydata');
Route::patch('/updateassign/{id}', 'LeadsController#updateAssign');
Route::patch('/updatestatus/{id}', 'LeadsController#updateStatus');
Route::patch('/updatefollowup/{id}', 'LeadsController#updateFollowup')->name('leads.followup');
});
Route::resource('leads', 'LeadsController');
Route::post('/comments/{type}/{id}', 'CommentController#store');
Views:
<div>
<table width="100%">
<tr>
<th></th>
</tr>
<tr>
{!!Form::open(array('route' => array('leads.convertLeads', $lead->id)))!!}
<td><li>Convert to Contact</li></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><li>Convert to Company</li></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><label for="chkOpportunity">
<input type="checkbox" id="chkOpportunity" />
Convert to Opportunity
</label>
<div id="dvOpportunity" style="display: none">
{!! Form::label('name', __('Lead Name'), ['class' => 'control-label']) !!}
<div class="form-group" style="padding:5px">
{!! Form::label('country', __('Value'), ['class' => 'control-label']) !!}
{!! Form::text('company_country', null, ['class' => 'form-control']) !!}
</div>
<div class="form-group" style="padding:5px">
{!! Form::label('country', __('Type'), ['class' => 'control-label']) !!}
{!! Form::text('company_country', null, ['class' => 'form-control']) !!}
</div>
<div class="form-group" style="padding:5px">
{!! Form::label('country', __('Stage'), ['class' => 'control-label']) !!}
{!! Form::text('company_country', null, ['class' => 'form-control']) !!}
{!! Form::close() !!}
</div>
</div>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<div class="modal-footer" style="margin:-13px; margin-top:4px;">
<div align="right">
{!! Form::submit(__('Convert Lead'), ['class' => 'btn btn-primary']) !!}
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
I am not sure which part of these are wrong, I think it is the form? When I click the Convert Lead button (to submit) nothing happens. Can anyone help? Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

try to place the form above the table tag
like this
<div>{!!Form::open(array('route' => array('leads.convertLeads', $lead->id)))!!}
<table width="100%">
<tr>
<th></th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><li>Convert to Contact</li></td>
