What are the advanced OKR settings & how do I use them? (Before v4.4)
One can navigate to the advanced settings tab by clicking on OKR settings menu item under administration. Advanced settings allow UpRaise admin & super admin to manage some additional settings as below:
Objective levels
Default visibility of OKRs at all levels
Objective labels
Key Result Configuration
KR reminders
Confidence status
Cascade Invisibility
Do note that you can continue using UpRaise without making any changes to these default advanced settings.
Objective levels
UpRaise admins customize objective level names and create extra levels of objectives from these settings. Read Objective levels.
Default visibility
UpRaise admin or super admins can decide the default visibility of OKRs at all levels i.e. individual, team & company. Once UpRaise admin or super admin selects an option as default, it will be available as default selection while creating a new objective at any levels.
This option helps users avoid the possibility of selecting a wrong sharing option at the time of objective creation.
Creator of the objective will have the opportunity to override default selection.
Objective labels
UpRaise allows adding labels while creating an objective. Creator of an objective can add these labels in order to further classify OKRs. Labels can be used to search OKRs from the OKRs list as one of the search criteria. These labels can be managed by admin/super admin.
If you check the option "allow label creation while creating/editing objective" on the Advanced settings page then new labels can be created by non-admins, while creating/editing objectives. If unchecked, only default labels will be available to choose from for non-admins.
If 'x' is clicked on any of the existing labels, a confirmation will appear. System checks if the label being deleted is already applied to any of the objectives - if yes, it not only deletes the label but also notifies owners of such objectives. if no, it will delete the label right away.
The main purpose for letting the admin/super admin manage objective labels is to contain chaos by way of avoiding duplicate labels.
Now, these labels are made clickable so one can click and check the list of objectives of respective label.
