Targets provide RevOps and Sales Ops teams with a comprehensive tool for dynamic target setting. Use formulas, historical data, and manual inputs to create realistic targets and adjust for key factors such as ramping reps and market potential.

Set targets in different modules
Assign targets at the team, territory, or product level. The functionality works similarly across all modules:
Teams Module: Set targets associated with individuals, such as sales reps with quotas. Assign targets to team members to define the individual responsible for hitting that target.
Territories Module: Set targets against a region or market segment. For example, when you use territory composition data, such as potential, to ensure targets are realistic.
Products Module: Set targets against product lines or SKUs. For example, if you introduce a new SKU and you want to give a specific target for it.
Defining targets
There are two ways to define your targets in Fullcast:
Formula: Use historical data and projections to calculate targets. For example, you can take last year's total bookings and multiply them by 1.3 to reflect a 30% growth target.
Manual Input: If your finance team gives you a specific target to hit, manually enter that figure into the system.
Apply historical data from previous years to smooth out fluctuations and create a more accurate forecast over time.
Person and territory quotas
Set up your quotas against a person or a territory:
Person-level targets: Assign quotas to individuals (for example, an enterprise AE with a $1.2 million quota). If you set quotas against a person, build out and organize your teams to mirror the organizational structure. Separate your sales roles from other departments and further break down sales into regions and segments.
Territory-level targets: A territory's quota is based on the potential of the accounts within it (for example, account management based on renewal availability) and the assigned representative assumes that quota.
Target types
Scalar: A set of numbers that measures your progress to reach your goal.
Timeseries: A specific revenue goal or objective that is distributed over a period of time.
Split types
Split: If multiple people of the same role are assigned to the same node (territory), a split target divides the target evenly among them.
Overlay: An overlay target assigns each person the same full target value.
For example, if a territory has a $1M quota target and two AEs are assigned, split means each AE gets $500K and overlay means each AE gets $1M.
Goal types
Static: fixed, unchanging targets or benchmarks that guide revenue-generating activities. When setting up a target, it is necessary to set an annual goal.
Dynamic: Dynamic goals are targets that can change and adapt based on real-time data and performance metrics.
Adjustments
Productivity adjustments are optional adjustments you can add to a target based on the performance of individuals associated with the target. With ramp-based adjustments, a percentage of the set quota per month corresponds to productivity, gradually increasing from 0% to 100%.

Configure and edit targets
Use formulas for target goals — Build a target's goal with the formula editor using math operators, metrics, and other targets.
Create a target — Set up a new top-down or bottom-up target and configure its goal, schedule, and adjustments.
Edit a target — Change a target's configuration, including the metric its progress is tracked against.
Distribute targets top-down — Push a parent target's value down to its child nodes.
Roll up a bottom-up target — Combine child-node values into a parent target's total.
Recalculate a target — Re-derive a target's value after an input like a metric or schedule changes.
Select a group of nodes for a target — Choose which nodes a bulk target action applies to.
View targets in detail — Explore the full hierarchy a target rolls up through, from the top-level goal down to individual reps.
Export and import targets — Download target values as a CSV for offline review, or import updated values back in.
Delete a target — Permanently remove a target and its history.
Schedule profiles
Create a schedule profile — Build a reusable schedule template to allocate a target across a time period.
Manage a schedule profile — Edit or maintain a saved schedule template.
Adjust and schedule targets
Apply a schedule — Allocate a target across a time period using a saved schedule.
Apply a ramp — Reduce an individual's target during their ramp-up period.
Adjust a target manually — Increase, decrease, or end a target's value for specific nodes.
Adjust target relief — Temporarily reduce a target to incentivize a rep, without changing the underlying goal.
Set a target minimum — Set a floor below which a target value won't fall.
Preserve monthly values in combined targets — Carry a formula target's monthly breakdown forward instead of redistributing the total.
Team-specific target options
Configure person level targets — Set individual targets for people within a team, separate from the team's own target.
Add a TBx placeholder role to a team target — Set a target value for a planned hire or replacement before the role is filled.
Create territory-based targets in teams — Calculate a person's total quota automatically from the territories they're assigned to.
Track and report on targets
Build a target report — Pull nodes, assignments, targets, and people into a single table for auditing.
