MB-910 Describe Dynamics 365 Sales Practice Question
A sales manager needs to track the performance of their team against quarterly quotas. Which entity in Dynamics 365 Sales should they use?
⚠ Common exam trap
Candidates often confuse 'Sales Targets' (a generic term) with a specific entity, or they assume 'KPIs' or 'Dashboards' are the primary tools for tracking quotas, when in fact the 'Goals and Goal Metrics' entity is the dedicated feature for defining and measuring quota performance.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
Goals and Goal Metrics
In Dynamics 365 Sales, the 'Goals and Goal Metrics' entity is specifically designed to define, track, and measure performance against quantitative targets such as quarterly quotas. It allows sales managers to set goal metrics (e.g., revenue, deal count) and roll up actuals from related records to compare against the target. This directly supports the scenario of tracking team performance against quotas.
