Performance Goal Measurements

Goal measurements help to assess the level of success of achieving the performance goal.

Workers can add measurements to their own performance goals. Managers can add and assign measurements to goals of their team members. Your administrators can use the Use Goal Measurements profile option to determine if users can add only a single measurement or multiple measurements to a goal.

You define and view a measurement for a goal in the Measurement section. If you select a unit of measure (UOM), you can include optional data for the measurement, such as target type, target value, and actual value.

Single Measurements for Goals

When the Use Goal Measurements profile option's value is set to Single, users can select and define only a single measurement for a goal.

Multiple Measurements for Goals

When the Use Goal Measurements profile option's value is set to Multiple, users can define and view multiple measurements for a goal.

Calculation Rules for Multiple Measurements

Select a calculation rule when multiple measurements have the same UOM on the add or edit goal pages. The calculation rule you select is used to determine the overall target and actual values for a goal. The options are:

• Average: The average of the actual and target values is the overall actual and target values for a goal.

• Sum: The sum of the actual and target values is the overall actual and target values for a goal.
