The Assessment Indicator Definition defines the KPI or measurable parameter that field representatives capture during Retail Execution. It provides the reusable definition of what must be measured, such as the number of products on a shelf, product facings, stock availability, promotional compliance, or another store-performance indicator.

Salesforce supports several data types for Assessment Indicator Definitions, including Number, Boolean, Date Time, Text, Decimal, and Picklist. The definition can then be associated with one or more Assessment Task Definitions covering products, product categories, promotions, planograms, or custom assessment scenarios.

The Assessment Indicator Definition works together with two additional KPI objects. A Retail Store KPI associates the indicator with its business context and defines the expected or target value. A Retail Visit KPI stores the actual result captured by the field representative during a specific visit. Salesforce therefore separates the reusable KPI definition, target configuration, and transactional result into distinct layers.

This design enables the same Assessment Indicator Definition to be reused across multiple store groups, products, locations, and visits while maintaining separate targets and actual values for each applicable context.
