Objectives Bulk Upload

If you do not want to create hundreds of objectives and key results one by one, especially if they already exist somewhere else, use the bulk import option for Objectives. Goals administrators can import large numbers of objectives from an existing source to save many hours of manual entry work.

Only the Goals Admin will have access to this feature.
