The example numbers are invented for illustration, not market data. Deals, average value and stage % describe the open pipeline today. Stage % is your own estimate of the chance a deal in that stage is won. History counts are opportunities that entered each stage in cohorts old enough to be finished; the history rate for a stage is wins divided by those that entered it. Coverage is open value divided by the target, and the late-stage figure counts only Proposal sent and Decision. The sales velocity line uses the formula (opportunities x average value x win rate) / cycle length, with the win rate taken from Qualified; it is a rough single number, not a forecast. Entries accept 12,500 or 0,15; a value such as 1.000 is ambiguous and is rejected, so write 1 or 1000.
