Goals Displayed in Check‑Ins
The Goal Check-in feature helps keep goal progress up to date by prompting users to regularly review and update their objectives. However, not every goal appears in these check-ins. Teamflect automatically selects the goals that are most relevant for manual progress updates, ensuring check-ins stay focused and easy to complete.
This article explains which goals are included in goal check-ins, why certain goals may not appear, and how this structure helps keep updates accurate and meaningful.
Why Parent Goals Are Not Included
You cannot update the parent goals directly because the parent goals are dependent on some sub-goals. For this reason, your parent goals are not visible on the goal check-ins, but the sub-goals related to parent goals can be seen on the goal check-ins. When you update the sub-goals, the parent goal is also updated.
On the "Goal check-in" card, you can see the sub-goals related to this parent goal instead of the parent goal.
If the progress of a goal is related to tasks, you cannot view these goals in the "goal check-in" feature.
You cannot update this goal manually, as the progress of this goal depends on these tasks. Therefore, you cannot view this goal on the "goal check-in" cards.
Beneficial Use Cases
1. Keep Check-Ins Focused
Only active sub-goals appear in check-ins, so team members focus on what really needs updating—no clutter from parent goals.
2. Avoid Confusion
Goals that track progress through tasks are excluded, keeping check-ins clear and consistent.
3. Make Reviews Efficient
Managers get quick, relevant updates for reviews without digging through goal hierarchies.
