Key Results & Units of Measure

📏 What Are Key Results?

Key Results are the measurable outcomes that track progress toward achieving an Objective. While Objectives define what you want to accomplish, Key Results define how you’ll measure success. They bring clarity, focus, and accountability by making progress visible and quantifiable.

Each Objective typically has 2–5 Key Results that:

• Are specific, measurable, and time-bound
• Reflect outcomes, not just activities or tasks
• Help teams and individuals evaluate whether they’re on track, behind, or have achieved their goals

📐 Units of Measure (UOM) in OKRify

In OKRify, Units of Measure (UOM) define how progress is tracked for each Key Result, providing flexibility to suit different types of objectives across the organization. This allows users to choose the most appropriate method for measuring success based on the nature of the goal.

🔧 Available UOM Options in OKRify:

• Number – Track progress using a numeric value (e.g., close 50 deals).
• Percentage – Measure completion as a percentage (e.g., 80% customer satisfaction).
• SObject – Connect to Salesforce records and count based on specific criteria (e.g., number of opportunities closed).
• KPI – Measure progress using an existing Salesforce KPI.
• Board KR – Track progress linked to OKRify Boards and their items.
• Report – Use Salesforce reports to calculate dynamic progress.
• Linked OKR – Measure progress based on the performance of a connected OKR.
• Linked KR – Reflect progress from another Key Result.
• Milestone – Track progress based on reaching predefined milestones (e.g., Phase 1 → Phase 2 → Completed), reflecting advancement through key stages rather than a binary outcome.

Next, we’ll walk through how to create each type of UOM in OKRify, so you can start setting up measurable and meaningful Key Results for your objectives.
