Manage Attainment Adjustments with Quota Tables

Track manual adjustments to attainment amounts with a quota table, which provides an auditable log of adjustment entries that you can reference in calculations for all statement statement periods. Overwriting a value on a statement applies only to the rep for a specific statement period, but a quota table provides a more permanent and reliable solution.

Quotas: Edit

  1. Create a quota table, named AttainmentAdjustments, for your adjustment amounts.

  2. Create a worksheet calculation, named YTDAttainmentAdjustment, that references the adjustment amounts from the quota table.
  3. Create another worksheet calculation, named YTDAttainment, that sums the amounts year-to-date.
    Make sure that the summation ends with the current period to prevent future month adjustments from influencing an unfrozen period.
    =sum(quotas(rep, "AttainmentAdjustments", BeginningOfYear, EndOfPeriod), amount)
  4. Add the YTDAttainment calculation to the YTDAttainmentAdjustment calculation.
    =YTDAttainment + YTDAttainmentAdjustment

In this example, a rep has YTD attainment of $30,000 with a January adjustment of $1,000 and a February adjustment of -$3,000. The adjusted YTD amount for January becomes $31,000 and the adjusted amount for February becomes $28,000.
