Opportunities are ongoing (and past) business engagements that you have the ability to create, edit and delete.
Section 1
1. Overview of the Opportunity Dashboard
Zomentum has two types of views, the Kanban view and the List view. Choose your preferred view from the ‘Display as’ option available on the Opportunity page.
Kanban view:
A unique view that Zomentum offers where the opportunities are listed in boxes according to your predefined stages of the prospect sales cycle. The stages typically begin with capturing a ‘Prospect’ or ‘Lead’ and then that opportunity can be moved through the various stages in your sales cycle, ending with the Won/Lost stage. In this view, the user can simply drag and drop the Opportunity from one stage to the next as they progress through the sales cycle.
Refer to this video to get a better understanding of the above steps.
List View and Filter Options:
This view showcases all the Opportunities in a ‘List’ format along with the information on the respective owner, pipeline, stage, clients and much more.
We also have the option to view specific Opportunities by adding filters.
For example, to view all opportunities which are in the ‘Prospect’ stage, add the following condition and click on “Apply Filter”.
Once the filter is applied, you will see all the respective opportunities.
Note: The filter applied can be saved for future reference. Users can then switch over to the Kanban view to easily track Opportunities.

i. Switch over from the Kanban view to the ListView.

Use Revenue/Cost of Documents:
If this box is checked, the cost of the opportunity will be automatically taken from the document. If it is unchecked, the cost and revenue can be manually entered into the box given.
Note:
(i) You can enter the number of months to calculate the cost and revenue for the opportunity in “Calculate total for # months”
(ii) Calculation of Totals and Margin:Total Revenue = One time revenue
+ (Weekly revenue * 4 * Number months to calculate totals)
+ (Monthly revenue * Number months to calculate totals)
+ (Quarterly revenue/3 * Number months to calculate totals)
+ (Half-yearly revenue/6 * Number months to calculate totals)
+ (Yearly revenue/12 * Number months to calculate totals)
Total Cost = One time cost
+ (Weekly cost * 4 * Number months to calculate totals)
+ (Monthly cost * Number months to calculate totals)
+ (Quarterly cost/3 * Number months to calculate totals)
+ (Half-yearly cost/6 * Number months to calculate totals)
+ (Yearly cost/12 * Number months to calculate totals)
Margin Value = Total revenue - Total Cost
Margin Percentage = (Total revenue - Total Cost) / Total revenue
Total Revenue: 1000 + (100 * 4 * 6) + (500 * 6) + (1000/3 * 6) + (5000/6 * 6) + (10000/12 * 6) = 18400
Total Cost: 800 + (80 * 4 * 6) + (400 * 6) + (800/3 * 6) + (4000/6 * 6) + (8000/12 * 6) = 14720
Margin Value: 18400 - 14720 = 3680
Margin percentage: 3680 / 18400 = 20%Source: A place from where the business was obtained. For example, referrals, company events, website forms, etc.
