CRM MVP

Opportunity owner

A shipped reference to the user who owns the opportunity.

Why it matters

A created-by audit stamp is not an owner. Ownership moves; the stamp does not.

No accountability, because no number belongs to anyone. No pipeline by salesperson, no quota attainment, no way to route work or hand over a territory.

How we test it

In full where the vendor ships a user reference. In part where the buyer creates it, or where the only available reference is the record creator. Not at all where no user can be attached.
