Overview
You may have key results and metrics that don't contribute to overall progress, or shouldn’t be counted in overall progress measurement. When this is the case, you can choose to exclude key results from overall progress.
For example, you might exclude a key result or metric from objective progress calculations in these situations:
You want to track the data but it isn't a real factor in progress or achievement of the objective
A key result that seemed relevant when you set it is no longer important
You want to weigh overall progress on a single or specific key results under the objective
Exclude a Key Result
Click the Kebab on the intended objective
Click Edit Settings
Click the pencil icon next to the name of the key result you want to exclude
Check the Exclude from objective progress calculation box at the bottom of the window
Click Save
Note: When a key result is excluded from progress, it remains visible in the Objective Detail view but is hidden in the quick view of key results on list pages, such as the leaderboard under Heatmap.
Visible Excluded Key Result: Click on the OKR to Pull Up the Objective Detail Page
Not Visible Excluded Key Result: View from My OKRs Page
Additional information:
You can also delete the KR, which will remove it from the Objective calculation
Important notes: - Deleted KRs are removed from the system and cannot be restored. However, you can recreate them by reviewing the Objective history if needed.
Deleting a Key Result (KR)
Follow these steps to delete a Key Result from your Objective:
1. Open the Objective that contains the Key Result you want to delete.
2. Locate the KR in the list.
