Pipeline Revenue Forecast Exclusion Chart

The Pipeline Revenue Forecast Exclusion pie chart displays the total amount of forecasted revenue for the analysis period and the total amount of the current pipeline that was not allocated because the opportunity records were missing revenue forecast start or end dates.

Use this chart to confirm that all pipeline amounts are included in the forecasted revenue amounts.

Description

Pipeline amount not included in forecast

This segment of the pie chart represents the sum of the pipeline amounts for opportunities in the current pipeline that were not included in forecasted revenue because one or both of the dates needed to determine the allocation time period are missing.

Forecasted revenue

This segment of the pie chart represents the sum of all opportunity forecasted revenue for the analysis period.

For descriptions of the sources of the chart data, see Data Sources.

Use the Chart to Identify Opportunities with Missing Dates

To calculate forecasted revenue for an opportunity, Capture Analytics requires a revenue forecast start date and end date. During the configuration process, your system administrator selects the two date fields from opportunity records in GovWin Capture Management that contain those dates. If an opportunity record is missing one or both of the dates, that opportunity's pipeline amount cannot be allocated as forecasted revenue.

If such opportunities exist in the current pipeline, the Pipeline Revenue Forecast Exclusions chart displays a wedge for the total amount that could not be allocated as forecasted revenue. To correct this situation, do the following:

  1. Click the Missing Date(s) wedge in the chart. This filters the Pipeline Revenue Forecast Detail table so that it only displays opportunities that are missing dates.

  2. Using the data in the Pipeline Revenue Forecast Detail table as a checklist, add the required dates in the Opportunity Info Center in GovWin Capture Management.

After your Capture Analytics data is updated with the current GovWin Capture Management data, the pipeline for the corrected opportunity records will be included in the forecasted revenue.

Pipeline Amounts

Capture Analytics calculates forecasted revenue based on the current pipeline amounts for opportunities. When your firm implements Capture Analytics, it can select two amount fields from opportunity records in GovWin Capture Management to analyze as pipeline.

The options under Pipeline Amount on the Pipeline Revenue Forecast tab enable you to apply the analytics to either of those two amounts. When you select one of the options, Capture Analytics recalculates forecasted revenue using the pipeline amounts from that field in the opportunity records.

The Unweighted and Weighted options under Pipeline Probability Weighting provide the additional option to display forecasted revenue using either unweighted pipeline amounts or weighted pipeline amounts (pipeline amounts with the probabilities applied).

Capture Analytics calculates the weighted pipeline amount for each opportunity as follows: Unweighted pipeline amount × (Probability ÷ 100)
