Manage Shared and Dynamic Goals

The Manage Shared and Dynamic Goals page enables administrators or managers to edit shared and dynamic goals on behalf of the goal owner or goal manager. This page is only available when enabled via Navigation Tabs and Links.

Shared goals allow all assigned users to add comments to the shared goal, even if they are not the goal owner.

Note: It is not possible to remove a user from a shared goal and shared and dynamic goals cannot be copied.

To manage shared and dynamic goals, go to Performance > Manage Shared and Dynamic Goals. The location may vary depending on the settings in Navigation Tabs and Links.
