Hi all š newbie admin here with a question on the Health Score
Context:
My company offers professional services to our customers (i.e. training, managed services, etc) and when they sign a new contract for a service, they open a āProjectā in Salesforce to track it until completion.
They then regularly update a āproject statusā field while itās open to indicate how it's progressing with either a āGreenā, āYellowā or āRedā value. A customer can have either multiple, single or no projects at any given time. See the screenshot example for a single customer below who has multiple open and closed projects

My CS team would like me to add a new groupĀ to the Health Score for āprofessional servicesā with aĀ metric that considers the āproject statusā of the open projects.Ā
The ask: Iād love to get some feedback on the best way to implement this š
My thoughts on how to do this
- I need to translate the categories of Green/Yellow/Red into a numerical score
- I think it could be Green = 100%, yellow = 50%, red = 0%
- Any completed projects or accounts with no projects would be left null, so the score would be NA
- If multiple projects exist, I could take the average of them after the conversion
My concerns
- What weighting should be applied? We currently already have 4 metric groups with 12 metrics in total
- How should I handle multiple projects, does the existence of a āredā project override the fact there are also āgreenā ones?
Any other feedback, thoughts, or previous success storiesĀ on how to accomplish this?
