Aligning an organizational goal with another organizational goal
Managers can align an organizational goal from their own organization unit with another organizational goal from an organization unit higher in the organization structure. HR administrators can perform the same action for any organization unit below the top organization unit. Goal leaders can align organizational goals for the goal categories they are responsible for with an organizational goal higher in the organization structure that has a matching goal category.
The organizational goal that you want to align can be in any status. However, this action is available only if the organizational goal is not cascaded and if it has not already been aligned.
Guidelines for updating aligned organizational goals
-
When an organizational goal is aligned to another organizational goal, you cannot change the goal category of either the source organizational goal or the aligned organizational goal to cause a mismatch.
-
You can update any other fields of either the source organizational goal or the aligned organizational goal, except for the organization unit.
Note:You can change the dates. The system does not check whether the new dates overlap.
