Activate opportunities

This additional feature creates link types and folders to use opportunities.

Opportunities can be entered, managed and evaluated in Vertec. They make it possible to present a lean sales process in Vertec. You can review your currently open sales opportunities, search for opportunities, and determine which closed opportunities could led to a project. In an evaluation, you can also see the expected turnover per seller over the course of the year.

This application is an additional feature. You can find the corresponding config set here.

Application

In order to work with opportunities, the required link types are activated when importing this config set and the following folders are created:

Service area Settings
Sales pipeline

The folder shows an overview of the current status of open opportunities:

It is possible to filter by customers and sellers and the probability of project entry is shown graphically.

The weighted amount is determined by this formula:

Weighted amount = Amount x Probability

and thus provides an order of magnitude for the expected average turnover.

Opportunity search

In this folder, you can filter by date, seller, status and probability or search for specific customers.

Closed opportunities

This folder contains all inactive opportunities. They can be filtered by date, seller and status. The list shows which opportunities resulted in a project.

Controlling

This folder contains an Annual overview of planned closings for the opportunities classified by sellers.

Each month, the sum of the amounts of the sellers' opportunities is shown that are planned completion in the respective month. Opportunities that are not scheduled to close are not included.

If the checkbox Weighted amount is activated, instead of the sum of the amounts, the sum of the weighted amounts is shown. The weighted amounts are calculated by multiplying the amount and the probability. The Probability value specified on the opportunity is used.
