I wanted to make sure I am following best practices.  Can someone let me know if this is the right way or  if there is a better way to do this? My situation is

 

Roles

 

Regional Manager Region A

 

  - SalesPerson 1

 

  -SalesPersion 2

 

  -SalesPerson 3(John)old position

 

Regional Manager Region B(John)new position

 

 -SalesPerson 4

 

 -SalesPerson 5

 

The user : John was SalesPerson 3 and I've moved him to "Regional Manager Region B"

 

Problem:

 

1. I want to retain the history  of all the opportunities that John owned and closed while he was SalesPerson 3.

 

2. I want Regional Manager Region A to be able to continue to see all the closed opportunities that John owned while he was SalesPerson 3.

 

My solution:

 

Creating a criteria based opportunity sharing rule. The criteria logic would look like the following:

(This isn't proper syntax but hopefully you get the idea)

 

Where  opportunity owner ID == "user ID string" && Stage == "closed/won"  

Share opportunity R/W with Role == Regional Manager Region A

 

Is this the best way to do it?

 

Please advise...

    Thanks for the response.

     

    I was thinking of doing that also.  I just wasn't sure if that's recommended to do. This issues seems like something people would commonly need to do. However deactivating and creating a new user does seem the easiest.
