Why did my won deals suddenly jump in Close?
The Close help pages give 3 common reasons. The first to rule out: Importing opportunities that are already won brings them in with the close dates in your file, so a batch of past wins can land at once.
Is it broken, or just quiet?
A number can fall because fewer people came, or because something stopped counting them. Below are the causes the Close help pages give, and how to check each one yourself.
What causes it?
Importing opportunities that are already won brings them in with the close dates in your file, so a batch of past wins can land at once.
In the Close help:
This is the estimated close date of the Opportunity, or if it’s already in a “Won” status, it’s the close date.
Importing Opportunities from a file, read 2026-11-12.A workflow can create opportunities for you, so a workflow set to create won opportunities can raise the count.
In the Close help:
The Create Opportunity step will create a new Opportunity on the Lead associated with the trigger.
Workflow Steps, read 2026-11-12.A workflow can update fields such as an opportunity's status, so one that runs on many leads can change many opportunities in a day.
In the Close help:
The Update Opportunity step will update any selected fields on a specific Opportunity on the Lead

How do I check it myself?
If many won opportunities were created on the same day, check whether they came from an import.
In the Close help:
By default, if you don’t import this field, the Opportunity creation date will be the day of the import.
Importing Opportunities from a file, read 2026-11-12.Won opportunities that all belong to one person can point to an import that person ran.
In the Close help:
If not imported, the Opportunity, by default, will be assigned to the importing user.

How would I know the day it starts?
- Feder reads your deals won from Close each day and compares each day with your own history.
- It tells you when won deals go quiet or move outside their usual range.
Some numbers are too quiet to judge daily, such as a form filled in a few times a week. Until there is enough of your own history to judge a change, Feder says it is still learning and scores nothing, rather than guessing.
Close feeds Wins. Feder only reads. It never changes anything in Close.
