Create a target agreement

In easyreview you create target agreements through a three-step wizard. This article walks you through each step: choose the recipient, set up the target agreement, and save.

Title and description

  1. Optionally enter a title for the target agreement.
  1. Optionally enter a description. The rich text editor offers formatting such as bold, italics, headings, lists, and links.

Set up intermediate goals

Below the description you find the Intermediate Goals area. Here you define the individual goals within the target agreement. easyreview adds a default number of intermediate goals automatically, which you can adjust as needed.

Each intermediate goal offers these fields:

  1. Title (required): enter a concise label for the intermediate goal.
  2. Description: optionally add a detailed description via the rich text editor.
  3. Due date: the date by which the intermediate goal should be reached. By default this is the end date of the edition.
  4. Weighting: set how much this goal counts toward the overall progress. The percentage on the right shows its relative share of the total.
  5. Quantified Target: optionally give a number range (from/to) to make progress measurable. See Quantified intermediate goals for details.

Add and remove intermediate goals

  • To add a new intermediate goal, click the + icon between two existing goals or at the end of the list.
  • To remove an intermediate goal, click the red icon in the top right corner of its card.
  • To reorder intermediate goals, drag the handle icon (six dots) to the left of the title.

See What are cascaded goals? for details.
