Goal Attributes: Scope & Type

Overview

Previously, the only attribute that could be used to classify an objective or a key result was a category. While some users would use categories to describe objectives' or key results' scope (i.e. business vs. personal vs. development) or type (i.e. committed vs. aspirational), the desire arose for "scope" and "type" to be available as standalone attributes.

Categories can still be used as users see fit, but the inclusion of "scope" and "type" as additional (optional) attribute fields allows users to more accurately identify and filter objectives and key results.

Enabling Scope & Type

An administrator with Super Admin permissions can enable this feature by going to:

Admin → Program Management → Objectives → Settings → Attributes
