Custom goal labels let you categorize, highlight, and organize goals with meaningful tags that reflect your team’s priorities and workflows. By enabling and managing labels in the Admin Center, you can define descriptive names, colors, and usage restrictions so users can easily tag goals for things like department, priority, project, or campaign.

This guide walks you through enabling the feature, creating and editing labels, and how those labels appear when assigning tags to goals, helping you keep your goal tracking clearer and more flexible.

How To Create Custom Goal Labels

Step 1:

Log in to your Admin Center at https://admin.teamflect.com and locate the Goals module.

Step 2:

Here you can see the " Enable goal labels” section. If you turn this button on, Teamflect users can add labels to goals. To add and edit labels, please click "Edit labels". This will take you to the label management interface.

Step 3:

Here you can search for/edit existing labels or click "Create a label" to create a new one.

Step 4:

After clicking "Create Label", set a title for the label and optionally add a description. Then set the label color and click "Create."

Note: While creating a new label for your goals or editing an existing one, you will notice an option: "Can only be added by admins." Check this box to designate the label as "official" for administrators' use only. That way, your non-admin users will not be able to select the specific labels restricted to admins' usage only.

Step 5:

The new labels you have created will be added to the labels list in the Admin Center. When you click on a goal in the Teamflect application, you will see the "Labels" section on the right side of that goal.

You can click "Add" to add a goal label. Select the desired label and click "Done." If you want, you can add more than one label to your goal.
