Reporting and Dashboard Options with ClosePlan Data

This section shows examples of reports built with ClosePlan data.  

Report Data:

  • Reports with ClosePlan data are based on Templates.
  • Each organization has one or more unique Templates, therefore it is often necessary to create custom fields on the ClosePlan or Opportunity Objects to surface data to Reports.

Report Types:

  • Reports are created based on Standard or Custom Report Types.
  • Account and Opportunities reports can be created from:
    • Accounts and Opportunities WITH ClosePlans (Standard Report Type)
    • Accounts and Opportunities WITH and WITHOUT ClosePlans (Standard Report Type)
    • Custom Report Types


Custom Report Types in organizations that use Role Hierarchy show all records below the current Role.

  • Standard Reports show all the Opportunities the Running User can see.
  • Custom Report Types will only show Opportunities owned by a User with the same Role or lower in the Hierarchy.
    • In this case if the missing Opportunities are owned by a User with a Role higher in the Hierarchy, the Running User will need to click on that Role in the Hierarchy selector.
    • If there is a User without provided Role, those records will be not shown in the report at all. 

Workaround: Create a "Global" role that sits above all other roles in the system, and then save your custom reports set with "Global" as the hierarchy level.

Report examples for which you can show data:

Playbook - Event status, Checklist progress and/or Checklist completion, etc.

Scorecard - Overall Scorecard score, Categories score, Questions completed, selected Answers with selected Scores, etc.

Relationships Map - Number of Stakeholders on the map, number of Stakeholders for individual Stakeholders values (i.e. for individual Roles, Support Status, Decision Status), etc.

ClosePlan Coverage - percentage coverage of ClosePlan within Opportunities by Rep.

Opportunity Reports:

Each screenshot contains 2 images. The screenshots can be opened by hovering over and clicking. Each screenshot contains 2 images that show greater detail. The first image shows the report and the second image shows the report with the corresponding data-flow from ClosePlan.

Historical Trending (Tracking) Reports:

Historical trend reporting allows tracking of how field values have changed over time. 

When setting up historical trend reporting, keep in mind that retaining historical data increases storage requirements.

Salesforce historical tracking limitations:

  • Max. 3 objects
    • Reports can be built only per Object
  • Max. 8 fields per Object (The Opportunity Object has already 5 fields set as default, leaving only 3 custom fields that can be tracked)
    • Formula and Roll-up Summary Fields can not be tracked

Because of Salesforce limitations is impossible to track all ClosePlan fields. Workaround solutions must be created via process builder. 

Steps:


Process Builder:


  • Click + Add Object
