Sales reports

CRM → Reports turns your deals into answers: how much is in the pipeline, what is likely to close and when, how many deals you win, and why you lose the others.

Sales reports in the WordPress CRM: headline figures, deals by stage, forecast, won and lost per month, lost reasons and performance by owner

Filters​

  • Pipeline: one pipeline or all of them.
  • Period: this month, the last 3, 6 or 12 months, this year, or custom dates. The period decides which closed deals count; the open pipeline and the forecast are always as of today.
  • Owner (managers): everyone, or one person.

Frequently asked questions​

Why is the weighted forecast lower than the open pipeline? It counts each deal at its chance of closing. A deal in an early stage counts for a small part of its value.

How do I improve the forecast? Keep expected close dates and stages up to date, and set realistic probabilities on your stages under Deals → Edit pipelines.

What about deals in different currencies? Amounts are added up as stored and shown in the pipeline's currency; they are not converted.
