Salesforce’s standard reporting can’t filter accounts by opportunity count because native report builders don’t support aggregate filtering on parent records based on child record counts.

Here’s how to work around this limitation and create dynamic account filters based on opportunity counts without writing any SQL.

Filter accounts by opportunity count using Coefficient

CoefficientSalesforceSalesforcesolves this cross-object filtering challenge by importingdata into spreadsheets where you can use native functions to count opportunities per account and apply dynamic filters. This approach gives you the aggregate filtering capabilities thatreports fundamentally can’t provide.

How to make it work

Step 1. Import your Opportunity data with Account information.

In Coefficient, use “From Objects & Fields” to import all Opportunities. Include Account Name and Account ID fields through lookup relationships. Add any other criteria you need like Stage, Close Date, or Amount to filter your opportunity counts.

Step 2. Calculate opportunity counts per account.

Use spreadsheet functions like COUNTIF to calculate how many opportunities each account has. For example: =COUNTIF(Account_Column, Account_Name) counts all opportunities, or =COUNTIFS(Account_Column, Account_Name, Stage_Column, “Open”) counts only open opportunities.

Step 3. Apply dynamic filters based on your count threshold.

Set up Coefficient’s dynamic filters to show only accounts meeting your opportunity count criteria. Point the filter to a cell containing your threshold value (like 5+ opportunities) so you can easily adjust the minimum without rebuilding your import.

Step 4. Schedule automatic updates.

Configure automated refresh cycles (hourly, daily, or weekly) to keep your opportunity counts current. This ensures your filtered account list always reflects the latest Salesforce data without manual intervention.
