This feature allows you to manually set the monthly average sales for any of your accounts, overriding the system-generated value. When activated, the Monthly Average Sales Override feature updates the numbers on your Dashboard to reflect your changes. To use this feature, follow these steps:
- Go to the Account you would like to update and click on Edit Account
- Scroll down toward the bottom of the page (right about the Tax & Legal section), in the Avg. monthly $ estimate field, key in the new amount
- Check the box next to Override the Avg. Monthly Sales?
- Click Save
It is important to note the following when using this feature:
- Enabling the checkbox replaces the "Avg. Monthly Estimate" value irrespective of the amount entered. The edited "Avg. monthly sales" value will be displayed on the "Sales Opportunities" page.
- The Potential bar in the Dashboard's 'Sales Activity' tab will also consider the edited amount.
- Prospective accounts are considered in the "Sales Opportunities" if there is a value in the Avg. monthly $ estimate field.
- Only the top 8 accounts for each priority column
By following the steps above, you can customize the monthly average sales for your accounts and update the values on the Dashboard accordingly.
