Key Metrics
| Metric | Description |
|---|---|
| Total Projects | Number of won projects |
| Total Revenue | Sum of contract values |
| Average Job Size | Total Revenue ÷ Total Projects |
| By Period | Monthly/quarterly breakdown |
Calculation
Average Job Size = Total Contract Revenue ÷ Number of Contracts
Available Filters
| Filter | Description |
|---|---|
| Date Range | Filter by when projects were won (actual close date) |
| Department | Filter by department |
| Division | Show only the selected divisions (opportunity types). Nothing selected = all divisions. |
| Function | Show only divisions with the selected function classification (Operational, Internal). |
| Work Type | Show only divisions with the selected work type (Full Project, Service, Warranty, Evaluation, Non-Billable). |
The Division, Function, and Work Type filters appear only for companies that classify their divisions (using more than one function or work type). See Divisions for how these classifications are configured.
The three filters are combined: a project is included only when it matches every filter at once. For example, selecting the Handyman (Internal) and Design Build (Operational) divisions together with the Internal function shows Handyman only — it is the sole division that satisfies both.
Leaving a filter blank places no restriction on that dimension, so it reads as "All". Selecting Internal for Function with Division and Work Type blank gives the entire Internal compartment.
