Build Your Own Custom Reports for Sales Engagement

In addition to standard Sales Engagement reports you can create custom report types to link cadence trackers with leads, contacts, accounts, and other objects. Cadence trackers represent the targets that you add to cadences.

Required Editions

Available in: Lightning Experience
Available with Sales Engagement, which is included with Sales in Performance, Einstein 1, and Unlimited Editions, and available for an extra cost in Professional and Enterprise Editions. Sales Engagement is also available for an extra cost in Service and Lightning Platform.

Beyond standard reports, you can take advantage of other report types to unlock more fields. A report type defines the set of records and fields available to a report based on the relationships between a primary object and its related objects.

If an object you’re interested in isn’t included in the standard reports, create a report type to access that object’s fields. Common use cases are:

  • Accounts and Cadence Trackers
  • Opportunity Contact Roles and Cadence Trackers
  • Email Messages with Contacts and Email Messages with Leads (if you don’t use Einstein Activity Capture)

Custom Report Types Administrators Can Create for Sales Engagement

If the included report types don’t meet your business needs, you can create other custom report types in Setup. These are some examples.

Report Type Purpose Considerations
Accounts + Cadence Trackers Combining accounts with cadence trackers lets sales managers see which of their person accounts are in a cadence and how each completed it.

Because you can add only person accounts to cadences, the report includes just those accounts.

To use this report type, enable person accounts in Setup.

Opportunity Contact Roles + Cadence Trackers Combining opportunity contact roles with cadence trackers lets sales managers see which of their opportunity contacts are in a cadence and how each completed it. --

Email Message Report Types

Your admin can create custom report types to show record level detail for individual email sends.

Record-level details include:

  • Details of the email, such as to/from/cc and subject/body.
  • First open and last open engagements, and linked replies.
  • Contact or lead details, when those objects are joined to the report.

Email message records aren’t generated for Einstein Activity Capture-enabled users.

You can create these custom report types in Setup.

Report Type Purpose
Email Message and Contacts Managers and sellers can drill into email details to surface information like send and recipient info, send time, first/last open date stamps, subject, and body details.
Email Message and Leads Managers and sellers can drill into email details to surface information like send and recipient info, send time, first/last open date stamps, subject, and body details.
