Features of the Objective Explorer

  • Objective List: The list of objectives can be accessed through the Objective 
    Explorer, offering a complete view of all objectives. The default view is for all active 
    objectives only, but you can include archived and non-active ones. 
  • Filters: Users can filter objectives by various criteria, such as owner. All columns in 
    the list are sortable to facilitate easy navigation and data management. With no 
    owner filter set, the default will show only objectives the user owns.
  • Filter Panel: The active filters will be displayed at the top of the page. Users can 
    choose to view the filters, allowing them to interact and refine their view without 
    repeatedly applying filters.
  • Filter Highlighting: Clicking on a filter will highlight it, making it easier to locate 
    specific filters. If no owner filter is applied, the list will display only the user's objectives.

Note: When viewing the filter panel in the objective explorer, if you pin the panel, upon clicking apply, filter panel remains visible. If you do not pin the panel, upon clicking apply, filter panel collapses.

  • Export: Export the Objective Explorer data by clicking the export  button in the upper right corner of the screen.
  • Quicklinks: Objective Explorer can be added to the Quicklinks widget for easy 
    access. Add the Quicklinks Widget to your home page. Select the carrot icon to bring up the menu of options and select Objective Explorer. 

Note: The Objective Explorer will be continuously improved over the coming months in 2025 to include additional features such as column selection and sorting and various enhancements for customization.
