Formulas and Calculations

• Commission Earned ($): =IF(AND(Status="Closed Won", Deal Value>0), Deal Value * [Commission Rate from Employee Performance Sheet], 0)
• Days to Close: =IF(ISBLANK(Actual Close Date), "", Actual Close Date - Date Created)
• Forecast Accuracy: =ABS((Expected Close Date - Actual Close Date)/Expected Close Date)*100 (calculated on the Client Overview sheet)
• Deal Velocity: A calculated metric in Employee Performance sheet: Total Number of Closed Deals / Time Period (e.g., monthly).
• Monthly Revenue Summary: SUMIFS formula to aggregate all deals by month and employee.

To enhance data visualization and quick insight, the following conditional formatting rules are applied:

• Status Column: Color-coded: Green for "Closed Won", Red for "Closed Lost", Orange for "Negotiation".
• Deal Value ($): Data bars to visually compare deal sizes.
• Days to Close: If over 30 days, highlight in yellow; if over 60 days, highlight in red (indicating potential delays).
