Has anyone had an occasion to create an Opportunity-related formula that will allow them to report on the value of Opportunities scheduled to close "Current FQ + 30 Days"? ("Next 120 days" is not what I'm looking for.)

Our chief sales officer likes to look at what is forecast to close (and has already closed) in the current quarter plus 30 days after it ends. This allows him to see what the first month of the next quarter is shaping up to look like and tells him if reps are consistently building next quarter's pipeline in addition to working their closing deals. 


I am in need of a custom field that does this so I can mix the "Amount" of these opportunities with pipeline numbers.

 

To expand on this:

 

We currently use two fields to distinguish pipeline from forecast.

Pipeline = Probabilty of 50% or greater

Forecast = Probability of 50% or greater and a custom field (Commit to Forecast) is checked.

 

I don't mind researching, but am not exactly where to start on this one.

 

Thanks for any help!

 

Our environment is:

Unlimited Edition

Cloud Swarm 3 (Unmanaged)

Google Chrome

 

When trying to use the Opportunity Wizard (or any other) it appears that applying a rule is an "all or nothing" decision. Yet, the Cloud Swarm video would indicate that there should be a PLUS sign next to user names to include them in the group the rule impacts. I don't see the + anywhere.

 

Ideas?
