# Managing Opportunities

Opportunities (also called deals) are the core of your sales process in SalesOS. Each opportunity represents a potential sale with an associated value, close date, and probability of winning.

## Opportunity Detail View

When you click a deal card in the pipeline or open an opportunity from the list, you see the full detail view:

### Key Fields

| Field                   | Description                                                |

| **Stage**               | Current pipeline stage                                     |
| **Probability**         | Likelihood of closing (auto-set by stage, editable)        |
| **Expected close date** | When you expect the deal to close                          |

### Stage Probabilities

Each pipeline stage has a default probability that reflects how likely a deal in that stage is to close:

| Stage         | Default Probability |
| ------------- | ------------------- |
| Prospecting   | 10%                 |
| Qualification | 25%                 |
| Proposal      | 50%                 |
| Negotiation   | 75%                 |
| Closed Won    | 100%                |
| Closed Lost   | 0%                  |

<Tip>
  You can override the default probability on individual deals. This is useful when a deal is progressing faster or slower than typical for its stage.
</Tip>

## Revenue Forecasting

SalesOS calculates revenue forecasts based on your open deals:

* **Best case** — Sum of all open deal values
* **Weighted forecast** — Sum of (deal value x probability) for all open deals
* **Committed** — Value of deals in Negotiation stage or later
* **Closed** — Value of deals already marked as Closed Won

### Forecast by Period

Use the period selector to view forecasts for:

* Current month
* Current quarter
* Current year
* Custom date range

The forecast view shows a bar chart comparing your target (if set by your admin) against your weighted and committed pipeline.
