            • Sales Planning Admin permission set
            • Sales Planning Ops Manager permission set
            • Sales Planning Ops Analyst permission set (if you’re added to a plan from the Plan Details page)

            1. In Sales Planning, select your sales plan, and then click Create Segments.
            2. Segment from the top part of your sales hierarchy, and then assign users and records to those segments. Split the top segments by a field. Click Add New Segment, and then give it a name.
              For example, you segment by country, so you split your segment by Billing Country.
              Segmentation of accounts
              Create other segments from splits, or further split segments into smaller ones when you select specific fields depending on your goal. For example, you create a segment for the AMER region that includes accounts in the Americas.
            3. Further split segments depending on your business objectives. For example, segment by industry.
              For example, you further segment AMER by industry.
              Segmentation of accounts by industry
            4. Delegate planning authority to team leaders and members from any segment.
            5. Save your changes.
