Quotas in Forecasts - where are they stored?

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 30

Hi,

in the forecasts, we can see the "quota" for each sales member which gets filled by importing an Excel file.
Is there any way to read these values e.g. via Power BI? Where are these quotas stored? In a specific entity/table? If yes, I would be happy, if someone could tell me the name of the entity/table.

Thanks in advance

I have the same question (0)

    Hi, 

    sorry for the late response and thank you very much for your answer.

    I found the tables in the database and they logically seem to be correct, but there are no records in it (I was checking with admin rights). Do you have any other idea?

    Hello,

    Please have a look at below page which has list of entities involved/used by sales forecasting.

    docs.microsoft.com/.../msdyn_forecasting

    I would recommend you check all entities listed above.

    Hi,

    we are using Forecast in the Sales hub and configured some forecast.
    It shows something from the following (this is actual test data, but it shouldn't matter)
    pastedimage1643581146131v1.png

    In msdyn_forecastinstance, we find no result when looking with fetchxmlbuilder in the toolbox
    pastedimage1643581571758v2.png
    The same goes for msdyn_forecastrecurrence and msdyn_forecastdefinition.
    However, we find two entries for msdyn_forecastconfiguration and of course many opportunities, but in the results (which i can't post here, because I have to scroll a lot) we find no column that gives us the values from the quota in the screenshot above. That is what we are looking for. Are these values stored as database entries somewhere or is quota only calculated?

    Hi,

    I have also check all entities data but couldn't find quota data store in any of the entities.

    I would recommend you to lodge support ticket with Microsoft to know the details of Quota.
