Dimensions to evaluate

Accounts per SE

AEs per SE

Coverage reconciliation (flag SEs outside 50โ€“150% of personal target)

An SE is Overloaded if any enabled dimension exceeds its Stretched threshold, Stretched if any exceeds Healthy, otherwise Healthy .

Thresholds by Segment

Default is used for any segment without its own row.<br>Define segment names in โ˜ฐ Manage Data โ†’ Segments .

Account Complexity Weighting

Enable account complexity weighting

When enabled, account workload uses the sum of account multipliers instead of raw account count. Untagged accounts count as 1.0.

Rollup rules:

AE level on (account off) โ†’ SE quota = sum of their AEs' quotas ร— (1 โˆ’ buffer).

SE Cost Model

Used to compute coverage ratio (quota covered รท cost) and the business case for proposed hires. ROI columns and exports stay hidden until you save once.

Average fully-loaded annual SE cost (USD)

salary + benefits + overhead

Target quota multiplier per SE

x - each SE supports this many ร— their cost in pipeline coverage

At-Risk Pipeline Discounts

When an SE is overloaded, a portion of their carried quota is at risk of slipping. These percentages drive the $-at-risk number on the org rollup and the proposed-hire payback math.

Stretched SE risk discount

% of quota at risk above Healthy threshold

Overloaded SE risk discount

% of quota at risk above Stretched threshold
