What's deal protection?

With the deal protection feature, all salespeople are automatically protected from being removed from a product line for which they're receiving sales credit, or from the opportunity team, when territory realignment happens.

Deal protection applies to sales resources that get automatically assigned to product lines as credit recipients or to the opportunity team using territory-based assignment.

A profile option set by the administrator specifies the default number of days for which salespeople are protected. An opportunity team member with Full access level can override the dates for which the protection is active.
