Using Oracle Sales to Track Your Sales as an Individual Contributor
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
My organization uses Oracle Sales to record all sales order data. This include gross sales amounts, any adjustments, order entry details and historical data. This tool allows salespeople to track weekly, monthly, & yearly totals as well as progress on total quota. Being a quota carrier, this system is of daily use to monitor sales progress and ultimately how much much we earn.
