Calculated Fields for Disonnected Mode allow customers to view rolled-up Demandbase metrics in Demandbase. You can use these fields for reporting, segmentation, and workflow automation.
Calculated fields are custom Demandbase fields that automatically calculate values over a specified date range. For example, the Engagement Minutes (1 mo.) calculated field displays the total engagement minutes accumulated by an account during the previous month. These time-based metrics help teams track account activity, identify trends, and measure engagement over defined periods.
Demandbase provides a set of standard calculated fields to help you get started.
Important: If a CRM integration is set up, see Create Demandbase Calculated Fields for Connected Mode.
