Spreadsheets & databases

Genipy and Google Sheets

Forecast forms, quota trackers and commission statements built on your Google Sheets files, in the internal tools your team shares on Genipy.

About

What is Google Sheets?

Google Sheets is the online spreadsheet from Google, part of Google Workspace. Data sits in rows and columns, formulas do the math, and several people can work in the same file from a browser. Sharing settings control who can view, comment or edit. Teams run on it: quota trackers, commission sheets, price lists, territory assignments, the weekly forecast. It shows its limits when a whole team runs a process in one file. A formula gets overwritten, a rep edits a row that was not theirs, three copies of the forecast circulate, and people with edit access see every row.

Use cases

What you can do

  • Give reps a simple form that adds their weekly forecast to your Google Sheets file, so nobody touches the formulas that roll it up.
  • Show each rep only their own quota and attainment from the master tracker, instead of sharing one file with the whole team.
  • Look up the current price list kept in Google Sheets from a quote tool, so reps always quote the same numbers.
  • Calculate commissions from your payout sheet and show each rep their own statement, while managers see the whole team.
  • Keep territory assignments in Google Sheets and let ops change them through one screen that records who changed what.

Setup

How it works

An admin connects the Google account once on Genipy’s Integrations page with Google sign-in, then picks the tools allowed to use it. You ask your AI for what you need, for example: “Build a weekly forecast tool. Each rep submits their commit and best case, and I see the roll-up by team in our Google Sheets forecast file.” When it’s ready, you click Publish. Every version passes automatic checks before your team can open it. If a new version misbehaves, you roll back in one click. You invite your team by email each as a Viewer, Editor or Owner. Your sheet stays the place for formulas and analysis, and the tool handles who enters what.

01What can my team build with the Google Sheets integration?

Reps submit their weekly forecast through a simple form, see only their own quota and attainment, and look up the current price list from a quote tool. Managers see commission statements and the roll-up by team, and ops change territory assignments on one screen that records who changed what.

02Why use Genipy with Google Sheets instead of editing the sheet directly?

Everyone with edit access to a shared sheet can see every row and overwrite a formula. A Genipy tool gives each rep a screen for one job and keeps the sheet for formulas and analysis. You choose who opens the tool, so reps no longer touch the file itself.

03Can a Genipy tool read from and write data back to Google Sheets?

Yes. A tool reads rows from your Google Sheets files, such as quotas or the price list, and adds or updates rows, such as a rep’s weekly forecast. It can also keep its own data in its own database, alongside the data it reads from the sheet.

04How do we connect Google Sheets to Genipy?

An admin of your workspace signs in with Google once on Genipy’s Integrations page. Genipy checks the access with Google before saving the connection, and the admin picks which tools can use it, so the forecast tool and the commission tool share one connection. Genipy gives your AI the setup link.

05Who can see and change the data in a tool built on our sheets?

Only the people you invite by email can open the tool, since it is private by default. Each person gets a role the server enforces: Viewers use the tool; changing the tool takes an Editor or an Owner. The Google token stays encrypted on Genipy’s servers, out of the tool’s code and out of sight of your team.

06Can we see and undo changes a tool makes in Google Sheets?

Yes. Anyone with edit access to the file can open Google Sheets version history and restore an earlier version, though added rows and changes made by formulas don’t show in a cell’s edit history. To know which rep changed what, ask your AI to have the tool log each change in its own database.

07Can a Genipy tool overwrite the formulas in our Google Sheets file?

It can if it writes to formula cells, because a tool adds and updates rows. Keep formulas in their own columns or tabs, and ask for a tool that writes only to input cells, such as a rep’s commit and best case. Google’s Protect sheets and ranges setting also limits who can edit those ranges by hand.
