Creating KPIs
There are 3 types of KPIs: company team and individual goals.
- To create a KPI, use the New KPI button in the KPI field in the Goals section or the Create button on the left side of your profile in the application:
- KPI Type: If it is a company goal, select a company goal or you can create a team goal by selecting one of the teams in your company.
- KPI Category: You can select the category you want from the categories defined in the dashboard. KPI categories will be useful when preparing reports, filtering, or determining performance target weights.
- Set your KPI name and enter your description if you have any in the description field:
- Select the target progress method.
- Automatic: KPI progress is automatically calculated based on the progress of your tasks and projects.
- Manual: Check-ins that you will enter at the intervals you specify will ensure the progress of your KPI.
- Total of KPIs: The total progress of the sub-KPIs provides the main KPI progress. For example, you can calculate the total sales quantity from regional sales quantities.
- Average of KPIs: The average of the progress of the sub-KPIs provides the main KPI progress. For example, you can calculate the annual average profitability from the average monthly profitability.
- Data Source: You can ensure the automatic progress of KPI progress by bringing your data from 4,500 platforms at certain intervals via Zapier.
Check-in Reminder:
For KPIs where you will do manual check-ins, you can choose the periods in which you will receive notifications by both in-app notification and email from the system. For example, if you are going to do a monthly check-in, you must first select which month you will do the check-in and then which day of the month you will do the check-in.
- Check-in Notification Recipients:
- When the person who created the KPI and the person responsible for it are different, the check-in notification will go to both people.
- If you do not want to receive a check-in notification as the person who created the KPI, you must click on that person's name to remove them from the list of recipients.
- The check mark under the icons of people who will not receive notifications will be removed.
- Select the KPI type: You can choose numeric, percentage or currency. If a KPI is not numeric, you can choose the start and target values as 0-1 or %0-%100.
- KPI Metric:
- Increasing: Success is calculated as the actual value increases. The start value is lower than the target value.
- Decreasing: Success is calculated as the actual value decreases. The start value is greater than the target value.
Start - End Date: You must select a start and end date for your KPI. For example, for a 1-year KPI, you can choose January 1st as the start date and December 31st as the end date.
- Check-in Type:
Sum Check-in Values: This allows you to calculate the current value of your KPI by adding up the check-in values you enter into the system at the specified intervals. For example, if you made 100 sales each week and entered 100 as the check-in value, the current actual value will be 400 after 4 weeks.
Take the Last Check-in Value: This allows you to calculate the current value of your KPI by taking the last check-in value you entered into the system. For example, if you made 100 sales each week and entered 100 as the check-in value, the current actual value will be 100 after 4 weeks.
- Linked OKRs: If you also have OKRs and you are entering your goals that you do not include in OKRs as KPIs, you can provide motivation by connecting them with a high Objective.
- Your KPIs will open as hidden OKRs. If you want your KPIs to be seen by everyone in the organization, select "Open to everyone
