Increase visibility into your forecast and ensure stakeholders can view, adjust, submit,
and report on projected sales. For example, a sales manager can share her forecasts with Sales Ops
for reporting purposes, or with another sales manager while she’s out of the office.

Forecast managers can share their forecasts page with other Salesforce users at their
company who have access to forecasts, and who have read access to their user in Salesforce. For
example, if Jane shares her forecast data with Tom, Tom must have at least read access to Jane’s
user record to view the forecast data.
You can’t share forecasts with portal users, Chatter
users, or groups, or share territory forecasts.
On the forecasts page, click .
Choose the coworker you want to grant access to your forecast.
Select whether the user can only view your forecast or whether they can view and edit.
Users given View and Edit access can adjust your forecast while it’s shared. You can change
your selection later.
Save your changes.
To view a forecast that’s shared with you, choose a coworker from the My
Shared Forecasts list on the forecasts page. If the rollup includes opportunities that you don’t
have access to, you can see the opportunities in the opportunity list on the forecasts page, but
you can’t view the opportunities’ detail pages. If the forecast uses a custom field that you
don’t have access to, you can see the forecast amounts, but not the amounts for the specific
custom field.
To stop sharing your forecast, click , select Edit, and remove the coworker’s
name. Be sure to save your changes.
