Managing Objectives for a Grant or Activity
Funding Organizations may use differing terminology for this section. The terms used here are the DD Suite default terms.
On your dashboard, select the “Projects” module.
Select a grant with Grantee Edit status.
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 page. Objectives and Activities can be re-ordered via the up and down links.
Select the “Add Objective" link near the bottom of the display.
The “Add Objective” page appears.
In the “Objective Id” field, enter a number for the objective.
In the “Description” field, describe the major milestone that must be accomplished to achieve the objective. Milestones should be stated in quantified terms where possible. Milestones should be measurable, attainable and realistic.
In the “Start Date” and “End Date” fields, provide the date at which you will start addressing the objective and the anticipated end date for completing that objective.
Select the “Save” button to save your work.
From the Work Plan page, add as many objectives as needed. You can manage the objectives by using the Action links, including moving them ‘up’ or ‘down’.
Edit - change any of the information for an objective
Remove - remove an objective from the list
Up/Down - Move an objective up or down on the list (this does not change the Objective Id, just the order in which the objectives are displayed in the grant)
