To add goals to the Goal Library in Oracle Cloud Goal Management, follow these steps. Adding goals to the library allows administrators to create standardized goals that can be assigned to individuals or groups across the organization. These goals can be reused and assigned at any time.
Steps to Add Goals to the Goal Library:
1. Log in to Oracle Cloud
- Use your administrator credentials to access Oracle Cloud.
2. Navigate to Goal Management
- From the Navigator menu, under My Client Groups, select “Goal Management” or “Goals”.
- Alternatively, search for “Manage Goal Library” using the search bar.
3. Access the Goal Library
- In the Goal Management section, select the Goal Library.
- This is where you can view, edit, or add goals that are stored for future assignments.
4. Add a New Goal
- Within the Goal Library, look for the option to Add Goal (sometimes labeled as Create Goal or Add to Goal Library).
- Click on this option to start creating a new goal.
5. Enter Goal Details
- Fill in the necessary information to create the goal. Key fields include:
- Goal Name: Enter the title of the goal.
- Description: Provide a detailed description of the goal’s purpose and the expected outcomes.
- Category: Select the appropriate category (e.g., performance, development) for easy classification.
- Target Completion Date: Set a default deadline for completing the goal. This can be adjusted when assigned to individuals later.
- Weight: Assign a weight to the goal to indicate its importance relative to other goals (if your organization uses weighted goals).
- Measurement Criteria: Define specific criteria for how the goal will be measured (e.g., percentage complete, milestones, or specific outcomes).
6. Add Additional Metrics or Milestones
- If needed, add specific milestones or progress indicators that can help track progress toward the goal.
- These could include sub-goals, key performance indicators (KPIs), or milestones that mark stages of progress.
7. Save the Goal
- After entering all necessary details, click Save or Submit to add the goal to the library.
- The goal will now appear in the Goal Library and can be accessed and assigned to employees or teams.
8. Verify the Goal in the Library
- Once saved, you can search for the newly created goal in the Goal Library to ensure it has been added correctly.
- You can also edit the goal later if necessary by selecting it from the library.
Summary:
- Use the Goal Management module to access the Goal Library and add new goals by specifying key details like the name, description, target date, and weight.
- Define how the goal will be measured and track progress through milestones or criteria.
- Save the new goal, which will then be available for assignment to individuals or groups across the organization.
Adding goals to the Goal Library allows for efficient goal management and ensures that commonly used goals are standardized and easily accessible when needed.
