Timeframe

What is a Timeframe?

A Timeframe anchors your data to a specific period. It could be a quarter, a month, or a custom fiscal window. Forecasts are submitted against a timeframe. Analytics views like Waterfall and Linearity filter their data by timeframe. Without it, pipeline numbers have no context.

MaxIQ supports both standard calendar periods and custom fiscal periods aligned to your company's revenue cadence. Admins configure timeframes during platform setup.

How It Is Used

• Forecast submission windows are tied to a timeframe
• Analytics views filter pipeline and performance data by timeframe
• Manager dashboards show attainment vs. quota for the current timeframe
• Historical timeframes let teams compare performance period over period
