Numbers are a great way to track your team's success and motivate them.

In this article, you'll learn how to set up a Number.

Watch this short video or follow the steps below.



To set up a Number,

  • Go to Quarterly Planning from the main menu and choose Number from the sub-menu. This takes you to the Number page where you can click on the blue plus button near the page title to create a Number.

Create a Number dialog
  • Here you can describe what the number is measuring. For example, let's use "Weekly sales" - in thousands of dollars.

  • The next step is to indicate what your desired result type is and set a target. In this case, we'd like to be above target, and we'll set the weekly target at $300,000.

  • However, if we were tracking wastage per month, for example, we might choose the result type "below target".

Set a Target and Update regularly

  • You can also set a different target for each week, or not set any target at all.

  • You now need to select the Number type - for example: "Currency"

  • Now you must designate an Owner, who must be a member of the team.

  • And select the frequency at which you will want to update the value of the Number. Weekly updates are an excellent place to start.

  • You will now need to select the person responsible for updating the Number.

    Again, they must be a team member.

And that's all you need to do to create a number specifically tailored to your company.
