Learn about Opportunity Split and
Calculate your Sales Commissions,
All in Real-Time

Speak to a Cloud Professional
Having a huge sales team might be good for your business but splitting a fair credit for an opportunity, that’s where the trouble lies.
What you need, is a way to split credit/share fairly among the team members of any closed-won opportunity. Salesforce provides you a standard functionality in Sales Cloud, Opportunity Splits, to help calculate commissions.
We understand it is important to share revenue from opportunities and give team members due credit for helping to close deals. We’ve implemented the Opportunity Splits in organizations from different industry verticals to allow everyone involved to get credit for their work and show it on their revenue reports. This has helped team members to roll their individual sales credits into quota and pipeline reports for the entire team.

Types of Opportunity Splits You Should Know

Broadly, there are two types of opportunity splits that you should be aware of
– Revenue Split and Overlay Splits.

1. Revenue Splits

Revenue Splits help to allocate credits to sales representatives or team members directly responsible for any given opportunity. It uses splits that can total 100% of the opportunity amount.

2. Overlay Splits

Overlay Splits allows you to credit supporting team members who are not directly responsible for an opportunity. It uses splits that can total any percentage of the given opportunity, along with percentages over 100%.
Now the next thing you need to know is how you can enable opportunity splits. Let’s have a look at the steps
