How to activate and set the use of weights in OKRs

Reminder: Only administrators can enable this setting.

Attention: This way the OKRs' progress will no longer be calculated by arithmetic average, but by weighted average (to learn more about how this calculation is made, just access this article)

To activate this option just follow the steps below:

1 - Go to the Organization's Profile;

2 - Then, on left side of the screen, click on OKRs under the Settings tab;

3 - Now select the option "Allow the use of weights for Objectives and Key Results":

You are all set! Now the weights are ready to be used on the OKRs!

To select a limit for the weights, simply follow these steps:

1 - Enter the OKRs product;

2 - Go to "Configure cycles";

3 - Click on the "pencil" to edit the cycle and enter the limit desired for the sum of the weights:

Note: The weight limit does not block the user from going beyond the limit set, it is more of a guide for the users. This means that, even with a limit of 100, they can still distribute 100 points between their Objectives, for example.
