The prebuilt dashboard in Sales Analytics contains key performance indicators (KPIs) that help you get value from your Salesforce data—fast. The dashboard let you manage pipeline, visualize quotas data, and fine-tune forecasts. They also help you understand key business performance drivers, visualize trends, and assign actions. You get fast answers to questions you have about business results.

The app also includes lenses—more narrowly focused visualizations that augment dashboard with greater detail about your sales KPIs. Additionally, when you create Sales Analytics, the app automatically creates a dataset based on your existing Salesforce data in the Sales and Service clouds. Datasets include both standard fields from Salesforce objects as well as custom fields computed from your Salesforce data. The dashboard and lenses use data from the dataset to visualize your KPIs to give you the insights you need to run your business.

You can create your own lenses and dashboard using the data in Sales Analytics dataset. To learn more about exploring data in CRM Analytics, see Explore and Visualize Your Data in CRM Analytics.
