      Hi Piyush,

      The record type that can be updated when converting a lead include the existing opportunity record and the existing account record.

      Thanks.

      Hi Piyush,

      when we convert a lead account, contact and opportunity(Optional) are cretaed but the opportunity is optional so if you checked the checkbox box ‘Don’t create a new opportunity then the opportunity will be not created.
