          When You... Salesforce Deletes...
          Remove a user from a territory, and the user is the territory’s forecast manager
          • The territory’s quotas
          • Manager judgments made by the forecast manager on opportunities in the child forecast
          • Manager judgments made on the deactivated user’s opportunities in the territory where the forecast manager was removed
          • Owner adjustments to the territory’s forecasts
          • Adjustments made by another manager to the forecast manager’s forecasts for the territory
          • Adjustments made by the forecast manager to subordinates’ forecasts

          The user is no longer the territory’s forecast manager. Forecasts for the territory are available, but their values change. Quotas in territories without a forecast manager can be reassigned to another member of the territory.

          Performance Impact

          • The number of territories assigned to a user or forecast manager can impact performance. We recommend that you test thoroughly for performance issues, and if you observe any, reduce the number of territories per user or forecast manager.
