Overview

Sum of all pipeline with a close date during the given time period. (Learn more about how Atrium Actions & Objects work to calculate metrics.)

Metric Time Vector:The "Close Date" of the open opportunities used in the calculation.

Metric Value Vector:The sum of all the value of open opportunities, using the mapped "Atrium Pipeline Value" field.

Why It’s Important

Understanding pipeline coverage is key to anticipate issues with an AE hitting quota. Filtering on this card allows you to see future pipeline by stage, forecast category, opportunity health, and other factors.

Who It’s Useful For

AEs and their managers, and AMs and their managers.

Definition

Sum of the value of all opportunities with a close date during a given time period. By default, this will be the value in the standard Amount field in Salesforce, but you can customize this to show a different value specific to your organization.

What Data Is Used

All information comes from the Opportunity object in Salesforce. The Opportunity Owner tells us which reps owns the opportunity. The Close Date tells us in which time period the rep expects the booking to come in. The pipeline value shown pulls the standard Amount field by default but can be updated to pull from a custom field in the Salesforce Data Settings or by notifying Atrium customer success.

Alerting

Alerting on this card looks at the total amount of pipeline with a close date in the next 90 days. Atrium will compare that value to the amount owned by each rep's peers. The alerts let you know if a rep has significantly more or less open pipeline in his name than usual, or significantly more or less than his peers.

Back of Card

The data on the back of this card shows, for each Opportunity included in the calculation, the individual who owns the Opportunity, the Opp Name of the associated Opportunity, the Opp Size shown as the amount in dollars, the Opp Stage, the Close Date, the Opp Health score given by Atrium, the Opp Type, the Opp Source, the Forecast Category, and the Account Tier (if applicable)

How to Use It

One way that this card will be helpful is in identifying not only the total pipeline carried by a rep, but when that pipeline is expected to close, and what stages, forecast categories, and opp health buckets that pipe falls into, which can be helpful in forecasting.

Important to Note

Any goals set on this card reflect a forward facing time period. For example, if you were to set a quarterly goal against Pipeline by Close Date, that goal would be set for Pipeline with a close date in the forward 90 days.
