Automatic Goal status updates

The auto-update feature provides accurate progress by automatically updating the progress of the objective or Key Results.

Expected progress is a timeline for achieving the Goal and calculates it by considering the start and end dates.

For example: The Goal start date is April 1 and the end date is April 30. The expected progress is 50% on April 15th.

Actual progress is the current progress that you make while updating your Goal.

Note: You can update the Goal progress even after its end date.

Navigate to Settings > Goals > Settings.

Select Enable goal Status and select Enable automatic goal status change to update all Goals automatically based on their progress.
Click SAVE at the top right.

How is your Goal status calculated?

The expected progress is calculated as below.

Expected Progress = (No. of days elapsed since the start date / Total no. of days) X 100

The Goal status is auto-calculated by considering the difference between expected and actual progress.

Not started: When the goal is yet to start.
Behind: When the difference between expected progress and actual progress is between 16.5% and 33%.
At risk: When the actual progress is more than 33% and less than the expected progress.
On track: When the actual progress is 16.5% less than the expected progress.
Achieved: When the actual progress is greater than or equal to 100%.

Note:

The expected progress is calculated assuming the goals are completed in a linear manner.
The status is not calculated past the goal duration. The last updated status is maintained past the due date of the goal.
