It is important for companies to determine the achievements that employees want or need to accomplish. You can set and determine them through Talenta Performance Management. This feature can be accessed in the Goals section.

- This feature has an old and a new view. To learn how to create goals in the old view, click here.
- If there is an approval layer for the action of creating a new goal (create new goal) or making changes (edit), you can learn the steps here.

The following are the steps for creating goals in Talenta Web:

1. Log in to your Talenta Performance Management Account.

2. Go to the Goals menu, then select one of the goal types you want to create (Individual, Team, Organization, or Company goals).
   

3. Click “Actions”, then click “Create goal”.
   
   

   You can create a goal in bulk by exporting an Excel-formatted file with Bulk create goal. Learn the steps here.

4. Select one of the available goal types: Individual, Team, Organization, or Company. Then, click “Create goal”.
   

5. Fill in the required information in the fields under Goal detail and Target.
   

5. You can also add a Key result (optional for individual/team/organization goals) to measure your Key Result goals by clicking “Add key result”.
   

6. The following sidebar will appear.
   

   No.	Column Name	Description
   1	Key result name	Enter your Key result name.
   2	Description	Enter a more complete description of the Key result (optional).
   3	Goal direction	Determine the achievement measurement type as needed: Higher is better: The higher the value, the better (for example, revenue). Lower is better: The lower the value, the better (for example, operating costs or response time). If you select Higher is better, the Target value must be greater than the Start value. Conversely, if you select Lower is better, the Start value must be greater than the Target value.
   4	Measurement unit	Select the measurement unit based on Percentage (%), Number (number), Amount in a specific currency (Amount), or Deadline. The explanations are as follows: Percentage: If you select the percentage measurement option, fill in the “Start value” field as the initial reference to be compared with the target in the “Target value” field. Number: Use this option if the goal measurement is a specific number. Enter the initial reference value in the “Start value” field to compare it with the final reference value in the “Target value” field. Amount: Select this option if the goal measurement is an amount in a specific currency (IDR, USD, SGD, MYR, etc.) that you can specify in the “Currency” field. Then, enter the initial reference value in the “Start value” field and the final reference value in the “Target value” field. Deadline: The Deadline goal measurement option is used to determine the achievement percentage based on the goal completion date, which you can specify in the “Deadline date” field. If it is updated on or before that date, the achievement is 100%. If the deadline is missed, achievement becomes 0%, unless there are additional rules. To apply additional rules if the goal is completed after the deadline, you can check Set deadline rules. You must then fill in the following fields: Days exceeded: Specify the number of days overdue. Achievement: Specify the achievement percentage for the delay. Add rule: Add another layer of delay rules (optional).
   5	Progress update method	There are two progress update methods that can be selected for goals and key results: Manual entry: Select this method to manually enter the total accumulated achievement. Log-based: This method allows the system to update achievement automatically by adding up each progress update. If you select Log-based, the system will ignore the goal progress mechanism for the Goal because the goal progress will adjust to the progress of the key result.

7. You can also add optional settings by clicking Set configuration.
   

8. The sidebar Goal configurations will appear. In the first section, you can configure Goal details.
   

9. You can then optionally manage the Target detail settings.
   

   No.	Button Name	Function
   1	Measurement type	Determine the achievement measurement type as needed: Higher is better: The higher the value, the better (for example, revenue). Lower is better: The lower the value, the better (for example, operating costs or response time). If you select Higher is better, the Target value must be greater than the Start value. Conversely, if you select Lower is better, the Start value must be greater than the Target value.
   2	Show the actual percentage of the goal and key result achievement	Click the checkbox to disable automatic rounding of the goal and Key Result Achievement percentages. The displayed number will therefore be the actual number.
   3	Progress update method	There are two progress update methods that can be selected for goals and key results: Manual entry: Select this method to manually enter the total accumulated achievement. Log-based: This method allows the system to update achievement automatically by adding up each progress update. If you select Log-based, the system will ignore the goal progress mechanism for the Goal because the goal progress will adjust to the progress of the key result.

To add them, simply click an employee's name in the list on the left so that it moves to the Selected employees column on the right.

    - The Start value and Target value information selected for the key result will be displayed and can be viewed.
