Managing Performance Indicators
Funding Organizations may use differing terminology for this section. The terms used here are system defaults. Also, some Funders provide specific instructions on what to enter in some fields of an application. Check the application instructions carefully.
If your Funding Organization is a DD Council, visit the Help Page at "General Information -> Federal Performance Measures". Note: NF in the Performance Measure description means Non Federal.
Performance Measure and Performance Indicator are used interchangeably, and mean the same thing.
On your dashboard, select the “Applications” button.
Select the “Project Title” link of the application you would like to edit.
Select the "Work plan" tab.
A view of the entire Work plan will appear. The Objectives, Activities and Performance Measures can be added, edited and removed from this one display. Objectives and Activities can be re-ordered via the up and down links.
Under a specific Objective, either select the "add a performance measure" link, or click "edit" on an existing performance measure.
The "Add Performance Measure for Objective” or "Edit Performance Measure for Objective” page appears.
In the “Performance Measure” dropdown menu, select the performance measure that you want to add. Note: You can change the measure in the Edit page.
Performance measure may have sub measures. These sub measures allow breaking the target into more categories. You will be expected to enter multiple values.
Select the “Save” button to save your work.
From the Work plan page, add as many performance measures as needed for each Objective. You can manage each performance measure by using the Action links.
